What's your only fans?
It doesn't matter. I got off with just the teaser sample.
In this economy?!
Fuck....here take my upvote

Not gonna lie, i've had this exact string as my WhatsApp Status since around 2010 until i recently discovered that it still was there :D

please use && not ; incase an action fails due to insufficient permissions.
FS TAB - 3 syllables
F STAB - 2 syllables
The choice is clear.
FSTAB (silent F) - 1 syllable
Yes FS TAB.
Since when has Linux been about taking the easy way out?
I mean, it's literally shorthand already for filesystem table innit?
We geeks do not care about syllables! We are the ones who "shortened" the 3 syllable "World Wide Web" to the 9 syllable "www"!
Still only 3 syllables in German 🤷
"Dub dub dub" is 3 syllables
By this logic we should just fuse the f and s for a monosyllabic word.
I just call it the filesystem table?
Filesystem Table.
It’s a shortening. Not a shortening of File Systemtable though.
Thanks for the information, but I started calling it f stab, an I shall continue to do so.
Reading this meme (a while ago) is how I found out it's not pronounced f stab
I literally didn't put it together that it was FS-Tab until a couple years ago when I was setting up an encrypted drive manually in /etc/crypttab, something I had done many times before, when it finally clicked.
I've used Linux heavily for about 15 years.
Same, mentally I called it f stab for years and it dawned on me after using Linux for well over ten years.
Huh.... Been using Linux for 20 years, only just learned the origins of fstab.
How embarrassing.
wow, it never occured to me that it meant file system table. I feel like fstabl would have made more sense then. although it probable would have just become "fuhstabul"
fuhstabul
Or is it constanstinobul?
Fuhzantium?
This was decided at a time when single bytes for a file name was still valuable space. This is why vi is vi and not visual. UNIX is more than 50 years old :)
Wow whooshing sounds... Today I learned.
F I L E S Y S T E M T A B L E
I just need it to be F STAB
Some people don't know any better.
Others know.
The rest are psychopaths.
I say it kinda like fuhs tab
