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.

    When I first saw sudo I assumed it was pronounced “pseudo” because it lets you fake like you’re doing stuff as another user. So that has stuck for me. (And despite all evidence, I still low-key believe it’s a clever pun encompassing both that and the official “superuser do.”)

      Yeah. I totally thought this too. That’s why I was stubborn about it. 🙄.

      On a more serious note. I love this lol.
