1. In machines, the amount of time, when operating a bank of machines, between any one of them failing. Not lifetime, as hard drive manufacturers want you to think. It is the average amount of time between failures of indivdual parts when talking about a system.
2. In biology, the average lifespan of each individual organism which has a particular set of genes or "environment of luck". An "environment of luck" can be something like all people who fly on a plane, living around individuals who want you dead in the worst way,all people who smoke, or some other demographic.

Get the MTBF mug.Some guy's real name. It's a valid string for a man of an Arabian/Middle Eastern name, having the first name Mohammed, the middle name Mohammed, and the surname (last name) Mohammed. Also the most popular boys name in the entire world when you use the first name only. Mohammed M. Mohammed would be the way to say it with the middle initial.
I met this 3-1/2 foot tall guy with a black beard and turban who calls himself Mohammed Mohammed Mohammed and I picked him up, cuddled him in my arms and felt the wiry hairs on his chin.

Get the Mohammed Mohammed Mohammed mug.A mythical programming language, similar to C++, where you describe in a text file how you want someone to die, usually in a gruesome way, and the compiler 3D renders a video file of the death complete with blood and guts. A game which I wish they would make but the do-gooders won't allow it because they think it will make kids go on killing sprees.
--sample Death++ code:--
/* mayandrink.dpp Mayan Sacrifice */
#include <athame.h>
#include <goblet.h>
create(victim1);
Standup(victim1);
SlitThroat(victim1,athame1,1,1){
while throat(victim1) not bleeding{
waitVblankStart()/* wait for blood to start oozing out */
}
}
while throat(victim1) bleeding and goblet not full{
goblet.place(underthroat) /*catch the blood in the goblet */
}
/* the grand finale! drinking the human blood! */
goblet.drink(self,GOBLET_CAPACITY);
end();

Get the Death++ mug.Crusader slang for a Christmas Tree/Solstice Tree. So named because of its traditional Pagan origin and it's uncanny ability to start tragic house fires during the Holidays.
Ibelin left a cigarrette near the Wiccan incendiary device in Xena's house. In 45 seconds the living room was engulfed.

Narrator:It's been many hours of staring for these people in the staring contest. Now we bring in the Whopper to see who wins.

::Person 1 looks away and eats the whopper::
::Person 2 rolls up his sleeve to show the Whopper Patch::
Person 1:"Whopper patch!!?? That's not fair!!"

Get the whopper patch mug.Describing a sequence of numbers generated by a deterministic computer that is seemingly random, but eventually repeats. Good pseudo-random number generators have very long periods before the sequence repeats.
The date Easter falls on is pseudo-random in that it cannot be predicted off the top of someone's head, and it takes 5.7 million years for the sequence to repeat.
To generate a pseudo-random number in C, you'd use the Rand(); function.

Back in the old days, an aol disk was a floppy disk, which meant they could be reformatted and reused. But now they are a CD-ROM, which wastes plastic for crappy software, software which prohibits you from starting any executable code (even beneficial code) on your computer for the first 5 minutes after you sign on.
