So is it "It just works" or "Shit just works"?

  “Yes”

  • Balthazar@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Mostly both

  I’ve always read it as “shit just works”. Why would the “sh” be there if we weren’t supposed to read it?

  source

  • otp@sh.itjust.works ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    No, it’s a comforting “sh” like “shhhhh”, don’t worry, it just works.

    It’s only one h for the double entendre.

    Imagine a greasy old IT technician coming up to you, putting a finger on your lips and gently saying that after you gasped about the entangled mess of hundreds of Ethernet cables in the server room

  Probably the former. I’ve seen it abbreviated as SJW, that’s unnecessary don’t do that. Am I old?

  source

  • Kaboom@reddthat.com ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I dunno, sjw is a lot shorter than shit just works

    source

    • TokenEffort@sh.itjust.works ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Yeah but… SJW means something else lmfao

  Hmmm. What if it’s because the admin was an old school Linux user and never took to bash. “sh. it just works”.

  Sh! It just works.

    It’s pronounced like it was something named in the universe of Dune: Zhid-Ghuwerst.

  Shhh… we don’t ask such things around here… it just works ™ that way…

  sh. it’s plausible deniability 🤫

  Shell it just works

  I always assumed that it was supposed to be ambiguous between them for humor purposes

• adespoton@lemmy.ca ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  Why not both?

  source
• MimicJar@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  It’s “S Hit Just Works” and it’s the slapping car meme.

  The “S” is because the car salesman has a slight lisp.

  Slaps Instance this bad boy just works.

  I pronounce it “this post hidden due to instance block settings”.

  source

  • Link@rentadrunk.org ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Any reason you have blocked the instance?

    source

    • TheOctonaut@mander.xyz ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      The general trend of the behaviour of the userbase when it first began appearing. I’m pretty block-happy. I’m sure it’s an over-generalisation but I’ve learned over the years that I’d rather miss out than feel constantly annoyed.

      because they didn’t censor the bad word?

  Its:

  “shhh… nothing is broken, ignore all the bugs and pretend it all just works, mm’kay?”

  sh.itjust.works

  source
• Cracks_InTheWalls@sh.itjust.works ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  Shit just works - forever and always.

  (shh, it just works and shit just works are both valid - the intent was the former IIRC - but the latter is obviously the superior choice. I’m also partial to sh.it.heads to refer to users [cheeky, but thought about in the same way as Deadheads for Grateful Dead fans])

  “it just works”

  The “Sh” is silent…

  source

  • Zachariah@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    or at least very quiet

    source
• mkwt@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  Since DNS is hierarchical, it could be set up so that they both work.

  Idk but I picked the instance for the sense of humor in the name either way.

  My brain pronounces it as the latter, though the extra jokes make it better.

• xploit@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

  Yes

• FeelThePower@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago
