翠星石 (suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com)'s status on Friday, 19-May-2023 14:16:46 JST 翠星石 @finlaydag33k I make such a fuss because those who write "TOR" have no idea about what Tor is and what it's for and me interjecting gives them a chance to go and learn such information.
WINE is the correct acronym for WINE Is Not an Emulator, although some people have decided to call it "Wine".In conversation permalink -

Just like I write WINE (even though it's "Wine") and DOTA (even though it's "DotA")...
I'm not saying it isn't "Tor" or saying that "TOR" is the correct way to write it, it's just the way I write it.I don't understand why you make such a fuss about it...
