I was shocked when I realized people pronounced it fs-tab lmao
Mentally I say Fs-tab because its filesystem table but if I ever say it out loud its f-stab
Madness.
Now that's insanity
I'm calling the authorities. All of them.
I've never heard fs-tab in my life. Always f-stab. Hmmm...
TIL for me
Congrats for being one of today's lucky 10000! Sauce
g-unzip?
gun-zip
I used this command way before I used gzip so I didn't put it together.
gun-zip just rolls off the tongue better. Two syllables instead of three? Yes, please.
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.
Ah yes, the file stabber, not to be confused with a file system tabulation, which it definitely is not.
File stabber is a good name. :)
Go fsck yourself
Know what it means. Still call it f stab.
F-stab easier to say and more fun to say
I'll die on this hill
I'll defend this hill with you
By stabbing
It is what its always been. F stab
Mental outlaw said that and it just stayed in my head ever since. Just like /etc is 'etsy'.
Or SQL is Squeal
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.
Not sequel?
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."
It took me a lot longer than I'd like to admit to realize that it was FS Tab.
Shit, just say f-stab and enjoy someone "correcting" you, only to smile and continue to say it that way.
f stab is real shit bro
fs tab is for losers.
real men say et-see, not etcetera.
i say ee-tee-see
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.
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)
I think I might be the third option: f'ss-tab.
Couldn't tell you where that's from. When I first ran Linux, the year didn't start with a 2.
This meme fscks
it's tune-2fs, right
and before that, get the drive name from the "black kid".
now where is the f-sck (spoken f-sack) gang?
I always pronounce it "fezzik" like Andre the Giant's character from The Princess Bride.
Its FS Tab never knew
oh nice i'm not the only f-stabbing psycho
I say FS-stab
