Its FS Tab never knew

[–] [email protected] 31 points 4 months ago

It is what its always been. F stab

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 months ago (1 children)

f stab is real shit bro

fs tab is for losers.

real men say et-see, not etcetera.

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)

now where is the f-sck (spoken f-sack) gang?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I always pronounce it "fezzik" like Andre the Giant's character from The Princess Bride.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 33 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 40 points 4 months ago

Know what it means. Still call it f stab.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 4 months ago

Shit, just say f-stab and enjoy someone "correcting" you, only to smile and continue to say it that way.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

it's tune-2fs, right

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago

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.

It took me a lot longer than I'd like to admit to realize that it was FS Tab.

[–] [email protected] 81 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Ah yes, the file stabber, not to be confused with a file system tabulation, which it definitely is not.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 4 months ago

File stabber is a good name. :)

[–] [email protected] 65 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 55 points 4 months ago

Go fsck yourself
