n. The act of porting a number.
I got a cell phone and ported the landline number to my cell phone. It was only supposed to take a week or so to port the number, but it took two months, instead.
The port went through yesterday, only no one bothered to tell me. I've had my cell phone turned off most of the time since no one could call it any way until the number is ported, so when I turned it on this morning it suddenly had four voice mails waiting.

If you say this entire phrase out loud, either you are a nobody, because nobody ever says the entire phrase, or you are explaining DDoS to a n00b.

A state agency where the unemployed go to get unemployment benefits, under the pretense that they are looking for work.
To go along with the pretense of the unemployed, bureaucrats usually try to get peeps to call the Unemployment Office the opposite of what it is, with euphemisms such as Employment Development Department, in California.

N00b slang for the alt attribute of the HTML img tag. Usage indicates a probability that the person speaking doesn't know the difference between a tag and an attribute.
When people get persnickety with me, saying that my NiDEs don't have Alt tags, I get persnickety back at them, and tell them there's no such thing as an Alt tag, and that I'm not an SEO spammer, so I don't put alt attributes in NiDEs.
