I've always pronounced it Ass-key
Count me amongst the Ass-keyers.
Welcome to the fold. First rule of π π: claim territory, and keep the isekai clan off our turf.
They give you trouble, you call me, captchisce? π€
capped-key-shay?
I was trying to combine Captcha with Capisce (pronounced capeesh, like an italian mobster) as a joke, but I'm not sure it landed π
Ah, I get it now. :)
There seems to be a rendering error in three places here.β
I, too, am an ass-key man

I say ass key
ASCII a stupid question and you get a stupid ANSI

The joke is that 'isekai' in Japanese translates to "another world" in English. 1985 was truly another world, as anyone who was there might attest.
Oh right, the "hit by a truck" cliche.
So was 1975.
You sure it wasn't IBM time travellers from 1985 sent her to ebcdic you?
Lemmy is the only place I've seen EBCDIC referenced, other than the college class that introduced me to it.
Lemmy is for sure the only place where I've seen a JOKE about it. Nerd.
I like you.
I worked for a credit bureau for a while and a product we had used a mainframe for billing customers. So the billing file was in EBCDIC.
Financial and health institutions are famously behind the times.

Quick, I need an American. How do you guys pronounce 'isekai'? Going off the correct Japanese pronunciation this post does not make any sense. These things aren't even close in the way I say them.
Ee-sik-kai and ass key. I bet I'm double wrong but less wrong than OOP. There not close.
i usually would hear EE-seh-kai or EE-say-kai, given that its basically I and Sekai(meaning world in japanese) put together. so how you pronounce the latter should depend on how you pronounce the word Sekai
We donβt. We make you speak American, like god intended.
It seems more rikely, if hit by an IBM truck in 1985 that he would be ebcdic'd to Seattle.
Someone once told me that JWT is pronounced "jot", so I do. People call me a lunatic for it, but I still do.
It's missing an O sound, that's why you're a psycho

Maybe he's Welsh.
For me it will always be the James Web(b) Token.
How is it pronounced
Jot. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7519#section-1
The suggested pronunciation of JWT is the same as the English word "jot".
I had lived in Japan and can speak pretty good Japanese. I can say that this is just straight up wrong. LOL where does one even get this info

One can find little quips like this in Usenet archives:
Donkey Button == Ass Key == ASCII

I've also heard "A S C I 2" which seems really weird.
Ahs-see. The hard C following a vowel and preceding a long vowel makes "ck" seem wrong to me.
So, "Assy"?
