Ok, going for full controversy here. zsh = "zoosh" ssh = "shoosh" sudo = sue-dough

Before you achktually me, I know it's supposed to be "sue-DO", because the acronym stands for "superuser do", but for the life of me, when I see those letters together it just seems wrong to pronounce it that way.

I've always pronounced sudo the same way that the sudo part of sudowoodo is pronounced. I actually used to think it was an obscure Pokemon reference when I first started using Linux but both Linux and sudo itself Predate Pokemon.

There is entirely too much dough in this thread (/j).

Only correct answer is whatever theprimeagen says

Ok, thanks for the info GayHitler420 🫡

Just out of curiosity, are there 419 other gay Hitlers out there, or is that just a weed reference? 'Cause I don't know if I could deal with that many gay Hitlers running around.

I mean, just to be clear, it's the Hitler part and not the gay part that bothers me. And the weed part is cool with me too, but it would be hard to be a Hitler if you're just chillin on weed every day.

It would be extremely difficult to conquer the Sudetenland if you had the munchies constantly.

[-] GayHitler420@lemy.lol 1 points 10 months ago

Man, don't worry I'm changed man. Now I'm conquering countries in my head while I'm high from 20 kg of weed and 2 tons of pure medical cocaine.

[-] z00s@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Good for you, GayHitler, good for you

[-] XTL@sopuli.xyz 1 points 10 months ago

I say zsh, s s h, and sudo. But I'm Finnish and we're literal folk language wise.
