A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

The real debate is whether it's sudo or sudo.
I know it means "super user do" so should be pronounced "sue doo", but it just grates on my ear. To me it will always be "Sue dough"

It's "substitute user do", and defaults to root
IIRC
So it should be pronounced "suh doo"?
I'll have fun annoying people with this pronunciation, thanks!
The u is from user I assume, not substitute, so pronounced sue if you want to maintain the original pronunciation of the word it's from.
