f stab is real shit bro

fs tab is for losers.

real men say et-see, not etcetera.

Matombo ,

i say ee-tee-see

KillingTimeItself ,

et-see is the objectively correct version, ee-tee-see is the marginally more correct, but less funny version of it. And etcetera is just illegal, you should be jailed if you ever say that.

Kuba ,

I say FS-stab

JetpackJackson ,

I was shocked when I realized people pronounced it fs-tab lmao

clif ,

I’ve never heard fs-tab in my life. Always f-stab. Hmmm…

BlackPenguins ,

Oh shit. Does that stand for file system?

Revan343 ,

File system table

Empricorn ,

*File System Table-stab

Linguist ,

Mentally I say Fs-tab because its filesystem table but if I ever say it out loud its f-stab

some_guy ,

Madness.

JetpackJackson ,

Was the other way around for me. F-stab just makes no sense.

JetpackJackson ,

Idk its just how my brain decided to “chop up” the word if that makes sense

JetpackJackson ,

Sure we can put that way lol

Empricorn ,

... it never occurred to me that it could be fs tab

recapitated ,

This meme fscks

Matombo ,

DickFiasco ,

I always pronounce it “fezzik” like Andre the Giant’s character from The Princess Bride.

@OrgunDonor@lemmy.world avatar

SQL has always been Skull in my head. I think it is because I hated it when in college and associated it with dying inside.

et cetera

rob_t_firefly ,
@rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world avatar

Though I know it means “et cetera” when reading my brain has always “heard” that word - whether in the context of the word “etc.” or the computing /etc - as pronounced “ettick.” As in, “you need to edit your ettick f-stab file.”

PINKeHamton ,

Its FS Tab never knew

MehBlah ,

It is what its always been. F stab

g-unzip?

gun-zip

I used this command way before I used gzip so I didn’t put it together.

clif ,

gun-zip just rolls off the tongue better. Two syllables instead of three? Yes, please.

Blaster_M ,

Gun Zip - you literally shoot the gz file and it explodes like a piñata of files all over the dir you gun zipped it in.

dodos ,

TIL, I had no clue why we call this arbitrary important file a file stab, but fs tab makes sense now. F stab is more fun to say though (but has probably confused more than just me)

Matombo ,

oh nice i’m not the only f-stabbing psycho

funkless_eck ,

and before that, get the drive name from the “black kid”.
