I’m referring to the sh.itjustworks instance. Which one would be it? Because I’m kind of confused…
“it just works”
The “Sh” is silent…
or at least very quiet
Since DNS is hierarchical, it could be set up so that they both work.
I always read it as
ess heych dot it just works
unacceptable
Yes
Hmmm. What if it’s because the admin was an old school Linux user and never took to bash. “sh. it just works”.
Its:
“shhh… nothing is broken, ignore all the bugs and pretend it all just works, mm’kay?”
sh.itjust.works

Probably the latter. I’ve seen it abbreviated as SJW, that’s unnecessary don’t do that. Am I old?
I dunno, sjw is a lot shorter than shit just works
Yeah but… SJW means something else lmfao
Why not s.j.w?
For starters, because .w is not a valid TLD, and j.w would be registered in about 50 milliseconds if it ever became one.
Shit, justice works.
Shit, Jehovah’s Witnesses
Savior, Jesus Wept
Shhh… we don’t ask such things around here… it just works ™ that way…
I pronounce it “this post hidden due to instance block settings”.
Any reason you have blocked the instance?
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?
I mean at least they’ve said that they blocked it, would have been awkward to try to actually respond to him and just have them never be able to see the post lmao, looking at their post history, I went ahead and blocked them as well because like I could totally see myself trying to respond to him cuz we share a lot of the same communities.
Instance blocking does not also block users
ah good point, I was under the understanding that it blocks both since that’s what happens when I block an instance. I guess that’s a client feature.
“Yes”
Mostly both.

#!/bin/sh/itjustworks
I’ve always read it as “shit just works”. Why would the “sh” be there if we weren’t supposed to read it?
No, it’s a comforting “sh” like “shhhhh”, don’t worry, it just works.
It’s only one h for the double entendre.
/joking
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.
shhhh. it just works.
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
