evil maid attack 

A term coined in 2009 by Joanna Rutkowska, a computer security researcher, which describes a computer system or laptop's security is compromised because the attacker is a physical one and one that has access to the actual hardware in question.

The target is usually a laptop computer or cellphone that is left inside a hotel room and easily available to a maid or someone who poses as a maid to come and clean the room.

They use a USB plug or even something less conspicuous to get a copy of the system's password or to introduce keyloggers and other such identity theft viruses.

Resident Evil Maid 

In the original Resident Evil Video Game on Playstation, released by Capcom in 1996, the game was so complex and there were so many enemies that the programmers were forced to remove the bodies of the killed enemies as soon as the player opened or closed a door, went up stairs, or somehow entered another scene; causing the old scene to revert to it's original condition and the enemies to re-populate.

The term "Resident Evil Maid" was something my friend and I, and obviously others, came to call this new style of gameplay. previously, the graphics were not as complex, the games took nowhere near that time to complete, and there were no 'transitions' between entering or exiting a room.

The Resident Evil Maid is so fast, that leaving a room and immediately re-entering is will remove the dead enemies in under one second.

The game was so groundbreaking that at the time more development went into this particular game than the console designers had expected. This is often referred to as the first game of its kind, and as such minor sacrifices although necessary, were very, very silly.
Dude! That Resident Evil Maid is so fast i wish she'd clean the dead zombies out of my room!

Yeah but where the fuck does she put all the bodies?
A small piece of information. Derived from the word ken, used often in the scottish language and is synonymous with knowledge.

I mean I guess bro

a word of expression to when you give up on comprehending someone's words of ignorance, stupidity, absurdity or are too exhausted to formulate a proper response.

Commonly seen in TikTok comment sections in replies to lazy attempts at humor, overconfidentally incorrect statement, or an over-the-top comment or when someone completely misses the mark on something.
"actually... incorrect statement, hope this helps!"

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
