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.
23Reply 19ReplyOh right, the "hit by a truck" cliche.

You sure it wasn't IBM time travellers from 1985 sent her to ebcdic you?
17ReplyLemmy 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.
11ReplyI 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.

15ReplyQuick, 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.
11Replyih-seh-kai, and ASCII like ass-key. They aren't close, to me.
35ReplyThat's ass-sea, you Neanderthal!
It's much funnier that way, as any right thinking human knows ;)

Ee-sik-kai and ass key. I bet I'm double wrong but less wrong than OOP. There not close.
9Replyi 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
5ReplyWe don’t. 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.
9ReplySomeone once told me that JWT is pronounced "jot", so I do. People call me a lunatic for it, but I still do.
9ReplyIt's missing an O sound, that's why you're a psycho

2ReplyHow is it pronounced
1ReplyJot. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7519#section-1
The suggested pronunciation of JWT is the same as the English word "jot".
7ReplyJay-son web token.

I'm always discombobulated by JWT because I keep thinking it's some kind of Java web technology.

1ReplyAhs-see. The hard C following a vowel and preceding a long vowel makes "ck" seem wrong to me.
