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.

I'm calling the authorities. All of them.

Oh shit. Does that stand for file system?

[-] Revan343@lemmy.ca 39 points 4 months ago

File system table

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

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

[-] JetpackJackson@feddit.de 12 points 4 months ago

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

[-] tourist@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

stab up the word

[-] JetpackJackson@feddit.de 3 points 4 months ago

Sure we can put that way lol

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 3 points 4 months ago
