   @lain Unsure, what do you like better? I personally think "soul" is nicer

     @lain Huh, I guess in my draft commit I put "spirit".

     Maybe spirit is better

     At least it was more fun to say "forwarding to @lain's soul" in the unconference session

     That and the Self-Authenticating Designators (SAD) conversation

     The infinite sadness of ActivityPub's soul

     @lain In the OcapPub document I initially put "True Names" but MarkM objected that it was too similar to Vernor Vinge's True Names https://web.archive.org/web/20010209031115/http://progoth.resnet.gatech.edu/truename/truename.htm (the ultimate cyberpunk fediverse story, from 1981 at that!) which the ocap community has taken to refer to as where your online identity gets unmasked and you get beaten with a rubber hose until you reveal your private keys
