Took me years to realize Linux wasn't lie-nix. Some of my friends had been calling it that and it seems we were a bubble of wrong. There's also the lee-noox camp but that's just weird.
Also sea hash turned out to be sea sharp.

- sctb 2y agoI remember encountering this file in Red Hat Linux circa 2000: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Linus-linux.ogg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Linus-linux.ogg. It sounds much clearer nowadays, but still to my ear it's roughly halfway between lih-nucks and lee-noox.
