Was trying to extract a totally legit copy of Skate 3 I downloaded today to play on my Steam Deck

Somehow, idk why. This one is stuck in my head:
tar -zxvf filename.tar.gztar xzvf
eXtract Ze Vucking File
I have to do this command often at work and I can never remember the letters perfectly. This is actually useful, thanks!
The bomb runs AIX. I'm sorry, you're dead
tar zxvf filename.tar.gz file?Nope,
tardoesn't handle compression on AIX. So it would be something likegzip -cd filename.tar.gz | tar xvf -Ugh.
Same, never used a mnemonic for it or anything, just
zxvf
Like it's any other word
z=zip (default in most tar), x=eXtract, v=verbose (not needed in most cases), f=target
verbose … not needed?
If the words don’t happen how can I trust computer magic?
Yeah, how do I know that the PC isn't slacking?
Monitor the room temperature.
