  1. I pronounce GNU as "noo" and you can't make me do it any other way!

      1. @normandy That's the right why, ya. I started pronouncing "Linux" and "GNU" before I'd ever heard anyone say them so now my pronunciations have stuck; also, they're just better.

        1. @nerd My dad used to pronounce Linux as "lye-nuks", probably the only person I've heard pronounce it that way.

          1. @normandy That's how I do it, too. It's the actually-correct way, whatever the "official" pronunciation is, because Linus isn't pronounced Luh-nuss.

            1. @nerd I just follow this pronunciation (without the Swedish/Finnish accent ofc). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uK0xXFZtJ8Q

              You can actually find this in Linux kernel sources.

      1. @mushi That's what I've been hearing on my college courses. I like it, too.
