ASS (Advanced Substation Alpha)

[-] toynbee@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago

Why is that not ASA? Or even ASSA.

[-] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 59 points 2 months ago

Because they knew exactly what they were doing, obviously.

Because substation alpha is SSA so they just reversed it.

Because it's funny.

When I took a geometry test in eighth grade, I got a point deducted because I wrote ASS instead of SSA (side-side-angle) when calculating angles and side lengths of a triangle. Still got the right answer though

I’m so old and tired, this isn’t even funny anymore. I’ll have to explain to some junior engineer about ASS. Then management will learn about this term “ass”, and use it incorrectly at every possible opportunity. Then when no one can explain ASS, I end up being “the ass guy.”

HEY EVERYONE IT'S THE ASS GUY

I always chuckle when Jellyfin shows subtitles as "Full ASS".

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Never half ass two things. Full ass 1 thing

[-] ShartAtBigLots@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

For some reason, ASS files cause stuttering on my Jellyfin Server living on a NAS
