Perfect video. Bookmarked for future arguments.

If GIF is pronounced "Jiff", then is JIF (JPEG Interchange Format) pronounced "Yiff"?

gifs can have text overlayed? never heard of that, why don't browsers support it?

I'm using a hard g call the cops I dont give a fuck

>(JPEG Interchange Format) pronounced "Yiff"?
kek, however gif should extented to support 16-palette

webm 4ftw.

what an unbearable faggot

just use webm sempai, gif isn't worth it these days.

>four for the win

You don't make sense.

webm or weebm?

>tfw i always say the letters for png, sql, and gui
they just sound silly otherwise

Fuck off, pajeet.

Last night, I jiffed all over your ass, while giffing your balls.

Reminder that OP is a huge faggot and everyone I know pronounces it gif with a hard Sup Forums. Creator be damned.

Depends, everyone I know pronounces as OP said.

If he wants it pronounced as JIFF then the faggot should have spelled it like that.

The word in the acronym is even pronounced using a hard G, so literally there's no reason to pronounce it the way he wants except to be a special snowflake.

I stand corrected.

kB = 1000 B
KiB = 1024 B

Not even addressing any of the points in the video, but this guy needs to learn how to shave. His voice is a bit shrill, but I can look past that. I can't look past the weird streaks of thin hair going up his cheeks and across his lip. IN EVERY VIDEO.

Addressing the points he made in the video: I don't want to explain myself every time I say "gif" with a soft g, so I use a hard g like a majority of people do. Obviously popular usage wins the pronunciation war.

Who cares?
It's 2016, and we have webm and webp now.

B = ???

B = 8 b

Except that this is wrong.

I pronounce them "ping" "squall" and "gooey". Maybe that's weird

Right, technically "b" is only defined as the unit "barn". Octet is much more precise.

Kibioctet, Mebioctet, Gibioctet, ...

explain

Reminder, the J in "JIFF" is pronounced as Y so its "YIFF".

"YIFF" as in YIFF in hell.

A byte has variable size.

So then I guess kilobyte, megabyte, gigabyte, terabyte, etc. have no meaning whatsoever as a unit of measurement?

Clearly we have no mutual understanding of what the unit of a byte refers to in this context.

that's not true at all

Wrong

The byte size depends on the computer architecture. The de facto standard is 8 bits

The fuck do you mean "de facto"?

>what is ISO/IEC 80000

I actually have a copy of it and it does not define a byte as 8 bits. Getting your info from wikipedia articles with no sources is not a good idea.

That it is commonly 8 bits but it is not always 8 bits.

Negative. It is pronounced with a G and not a J sound. "JIFF" just makes you sound like a retard.

I'd argue that it's more than a de facto standard

This is what de facto standard means.

I'm curious, has there been an architecture in the last 20 years with a different sized byte?
like, you can easily find examples up into the mid-80s, but is there anything more recent with an odd byte size?

I love how this format is now obsolete and idiots are still pronouncing it wrong. They even argue with others:
>b-but t-the creator

He was a retard.

There is no evidence of pronunciation methodology in that image. I will always say gif as in gift because I also say Eureka Seven, not euhhrehkaaa seven. Same shit. Don't care what 'creators' say if they're just wrong.

Hey guys I made a new word, it's spelled exactly like the word 'Burrito', but you pronounce it 'Durrito'. It means YOU DON'T GET TO DICTATE HOW LANGUAGE WORKS EVER.

Objectively correct pronunciations.

Don't you mean jraphics? You fags can't make up your mind.

What the hell's wrong with his eyes? Meth?

daily reminder than language is fluid, and is determined solely by majority usage. which is why the words irony an literally don't mean what they did anymore.

Loved him in Juno. Wish he'd wear the headband in all his videos tho

This is why autistic nerds should not be allowed to invent shit without adult (neurotypical) supervision.

Yeah I don't care.
I'll pronounce it gif, not jif. Because that's how the language simply involved.

Why the fuck should I say jif if most people know it as gif? Point of human language is to communicate efficiently as possible. Combine words to form sentences so you can hope that the other side will understand what you are trying to say.

If I say jif, I will be willingly use a pronunciation that the other side won't likely understand, requiring clarification.

Wait, people call PNG images "ping" rather than "pee en gee"?

Nice job showing how soft G's work.
Its still Graphical, unless that's said with a soft G.

>we perfected it yall!

Besides, this wouldn't even be a debate if English weren't such a caveman tier language.

If Henry Ford came back from the dead and said "well actually it's pronounced Char" would you start pronouncing it Char?
No faggot, no one fucking cares that the creator is a fag that tries to police his term. GIF is closest to the word "Gift", and is pronounced like it, you are autistic if you see GIF and think "hmm, this must be pronounced with a soft G even though there are no words that look like it pronounced with a soft G!"

I say dot jee eye eff

this. and I also pronounce jpeg Jay-Peg. I do both of these because I'm not autistic. If you do anything else it just means you're autistic and also probably a faggot

>there are other words that begin with 'ch' and are pronounced as 'k'

see
and dozens more
Who's the massive faggot now, faggot?
I've been pronouncing it with a soft G since long before I knew the author declared it as such. Probably before you were even born, summerfaggot.

>I also pronounce jpeg Jay-Peg
Shouldn't it be jay-feg then, by hard-Gfag logic?

You still haven't proved shit about shit. So what if you were autistic and gay long before the author sperged out in front of millions? You are still autistic and gay if you see GIF as closer to soft-g starting words that barely resemble it as opposed to all the words I listed with a hard G that start with the letters G and I.
