It's praising something.

Well hiya!

 

There's this word that Linus says in some of his videos and I don't know what it means. It sounds like kuh-dohs or koo-dose, not sure how to spell it, and he says it when he is describing a positive feature on a product. I've got a link to the time in a video where he says it below:

So is it like an abbreviation for something? (C.U.D.O.S.) Is it like a running joke, or is it just a word with a meaning? I have no idea, if anyone knows I'd love it if you could explain.

 

Thanks!

Yo whats up.
