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?

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 🤷

[-] irmoz@reddthat.com 2 points 1 year ago

"Dub dub dub" is 3 syllables
