And if you really get stuck, try removing vowels and repeating some letters
Just curious... why would you want to do that even if you're stuck? This is more of a quick brainstorm method, I don't think he's even looked to see if the domain name is available at this point. Also, I'd rather have something like "getflint.com" or "flintapp.com" than "flnnt.com" or something. When you start getting into cutesy abstractions like that it becomes hard to remember.
It would be fun (and probably exists) a fake word generator that created words that were easy to spell and pronounce, but were basically meaningless.
$ aspell dump master |sed -n $(echo $(($RANDOM % `aspell dump master|wc -l`)))p
(Note: I'm mostly a Windows user nowadays and I have never personally used aspell, sed, or wc)
What does the p at the end of the line do? Is that a mistake or is it there on purpose?
$ aspell dump master |sed -n $(echo $(($RANDOM % `aspell dump master|wc -l`)))p
Is aspell a spellchecker? And does this command randomly select one word from its dictionary? (Note: I'm mostly a Windows user nowadays and I have never personally used aspell, sed, or wc) What does the p at the end of the line do? Is that a mistake or is it there on purpose?
Earlier quoted context omitted.

Whoosh.
