If SQL is pronounced "sequel" then surely DNS is pronounced "Dennis"?

@bloor I assume somebody has done an 'Anyone for DNS?' bit somewhere, but there were too many replies for me to bother checking.

@greem @bloor David Duchovny’s character from Twin Peaks, Denise.

The first Denise that sprang to my mind, after Debbie Harry and Denis 🥰

[machinelordzero@mastodon.social]

@bloor do people really pronounce it like that?

[moule@mastodon.moule.world]

@bloor Is DNS the MNS good at TNS like BNS?

@mrrmot @qwyrdo @me_ @bloor A reference to the printing process, I presume.

[dragonfrog@mastodon.sdf.org]

@bloor We had a chance to pronounce SCSI "sexy" but we went with "scuzzy". I dunno about this industry.

@mansr @qwyrdo @me_ @bloor To me HTML was always "hate mail."

@Rob_T_Firefly @qwyrdo @me_ @bloor It so happens that "hot" is Swedish for "threat." Makes the name of the mail service a little funnier.
