How do you pronounce these? If you've got one that you've never heard spoken, post it and we'll all give it a go

sudo -"SUE-doe"
SQLi - "squilee"
GUI - "gooey"
SATA - "sah-tah"
Ubuntu - "ooh-BUN-too"
Linux - "Lin-ucks"
QT - "cute"
LUA - "LOO-ah"
OpenGL - "Open jel"

I disagree with some.
GUI - "gee-you-eye"
Ubuntu - "you-bunt-ooh"
QT - "cue-tee"
Surprised we pronounce SQL/SQLi the same, though. So many asshats say "sequel" and I get annoyed. I've been told they are both right, but I still disagree. SQL stands for Structured Query Language, so I believe you're just supposed to read the letters.

You say scuba, not s-c-u-b-a, even though it's Self-Contained Underwater Breather Apparatus.

But that's how you pronounce it. And I didn't ask how you pronounced it.

What kind of reply is this? You didn't even type anything, nor make the effort. This is one real low quality post. Did you not have anything to say so you just decided to boost your post count by replying with my quotes? Nothing more than just my quotes. No effort to say anything. You're the reason why Sinisterly is going private. Did you just hear "Users with less than 5 posts are getting booted" So you just tried to post the stupidest shit just to stay here?
