        @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 🥰

                    @bloor do people really pronounce it like that?

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

                              @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.
