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

@bloor Thank you.

[spottyfox@pounced-on.me]

@bloor SQL is clearly pronounced "squirrel"

@bloor @soatok Dennis is propagating ….

@robin @bloor did a short stint to cover when a colleague had an accident. New office install 80% done. Under trained and out of my depth and lacking expertise, but was least worst option at the time (and a loooong time ago ie multiple IDNS lines internet days)
From that experience the next time I ask Dennis nicely and they don't respond I'm for dragging Dennis into the underground carpark and f'ning them up good. Just saying.
#what-grudge?

@bloor squirrel dens is what I read

[z428@social.lol]

@bloor Of course.

[twinkle@sweet.succubi.services]

@bloor@bloor.tw ask Dennis /ref

[feonixrift@x0r.be]

@DM_Ronin @bloor Totally accepted as new headcanon . But could it be a diminutive form? Surely DNS is only the little snitch; big snitch is BGP.

[toxy@mastodon.acc.sunet.se]

@bloor It’s certainly a menace.

[evilstevie@mastod1.ddns.net]

@bloor close - as a network monkey I can confidently say it's pronounced "denies" because the problem is always DNS

[datguydavid@yiff.life]

@bloor
Rolling with this from now on tbh

[lonewolf225@please.charbroil.me]

@bloor@bloor.tw lmao i tend to personify DNS as either Denise or Dennis

that being said, when i get around to hosting my own authoritative DNS servers, I will be calling them denise and dennis and CNAMEing ns0 and ns1 to them

[lennybacon@infosec.exchange]

@bloor Don’t understand the question

@bloor
Denis, Denis, avec tes yeux si bleus
Denis, Denis, Quand j'ai peche' pour deux
Denis, Denis, Pour un baiser d'eternite'
Denis, Denis, Je suis folle de toi
Denis, Denis, Embrasse moi ce soir
Denis, Denis, Pour un baiser d'eternite
Oh Denis, ooh-be-do,...

@bloor

It's pronounced squeal, like a pig.
