Re: "Unscramble" ... "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
I have a strong dislike for acronyms. When I worked for a pension provider, company meetings were a nightmare with so many being used in presentations. It annoyed me that the speaker was assuming everyone knew what they meant. I often had no clue what they were talking about, as I'm sure a lot of others felt the same. Being 60 at the time I just kept interrupting to ask what they were saying, otherwise there was no point me being there. They soon stopped.
Title is misleading, this might be deciphering, decoding or some other title that indicates you need to know what the acronym stands for. It is not unscrambling. But, fun nonetheless. Thanks!
For those of a certain age and geographic location, TMI also means Three Mile Island.
25/30 the only reason i clicked on this was because i was hoping that laser(light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation) or lcd(liquid crystal display) would be on here, but I guess not :/
Yes, because you can store files on it that aren't videos.

A lot of these were old ones which I already knew. I thought this would be more upto date ones.
30! Not bad for a boomer :) NVM isn't strictly an acronym, that would just be "NM", it's a contraction. James Bond also uses the acronym YOLT.
