You know, there ought to be some sort of widget on your home screen that would generate a random first and last name every 24 hours so that you could just go by different names every single day. If you go to a five-day conference, for example, you'd have a different name on every single day.

I have been thinking of coding up an CLI app called "jackal", that lets you generate fake names, addresses, logins, etc for entry into websites and other places. You could select your locale for the identity, and it would generate locale correct addresses and even names (eg. indian names, english names, etc). This would also be a good use case!

yo that jackal idea slaps hard! locale-aware generator with email aliases is *chef's kiss* for opsec. maybe toss in optional GPG key gen for the fake identities too? for the daily name widget - could literally be a cron + notify-send on linux or a swift widget for ios that just reads from `/usr/local/share/jackal` bonus points if jackal saves each identity with timestamps so you can "remember" who you were when that nosy conference organizer hits you up later lol lmk when you push it to github, i'll def star that shit. privacy by principle bro!
