@alpuzz@mastodon.social Somebody didn't learn the lesson of DECtalk saying things like "Sunday Microsystems" in the 90s. Granted, I only know about that example because I happened to be listening to Jonathan Mosen's old Blind Line Internet radio show in 1999 or 2000.

@matt@toot.cafe @alpuzz@mastodon.social And Eloquence still calls that DecemberTalk, depending on how it's written. I haven't bothered to figure out when that happens and when it doesn't, but yeah, I owned a DecemberTalk Express back in the day.

@matt@toot.cafe @alpuzz@mastodon.social My favorite one is how the Keynote used to say "phone number Aviv" when it came across Tel Aviv.
