I will avenge his untimely death by pronouncing “JPEG” as “JFEG”.

Glad he was honored, and glad he got a last dig in on the name before he shuffled off this dumpster fire of a world. For me, it’ll always be JIF. That’s how I first heard it pronounced, and that’s how he wanted it, even if that’s not the norm any more.
