Zdenek's definitions

ATX

Stands for Advanced Technology Extended (PC). Refers to the computer case, power supply and motherboard specifications. The older variety is AT.
When you assemble a machine, the 3 components mentioned above must be all of the same kind, either AT or ATX. The ATX power supply additionally offers a 3.3V power and 5V stand-by for keyboard power-on, Wake-On-LAN and possibly a non-interrupted USB slot. It is also software-driven, while the older AT kind can be only turned on/off manually.

Wow, this AMD K6 board has both AT and ATX power connectors! They have been thinking about everything!

Gohan

Means "meal" in Japanese. Usually is used in connection with rice, so it's almost a synonym with it.

No example. It's also a first name, so please don't write that it's an insult.

waffling

Adding confusing/meaningless words into your speech to
1) Inflate the show time, or
2) Cover the fact that you don't have an idea.

Bla bla bla you know, it's like that, as we all surely know.

anime music video

A video clip made by editing many cut scenes from one or more animes fit to some catchy MP3 song. The song is an important choice - it's either in English or in Japanese and the AMV creator should be familiar with it's words to make the scenes match the song text. The scenes shouldn't contain any subtitles and be of good quality, as otherwise the creator's efforts are half wasted. Many newbies even forget to turn off the DIVX logo - especially annoying, when it appears on every cut.
The resulting music video is a self-contained story and can really entertain you if made properly - it's sometimes even better than the song's original live clip.

Aluminum Studios have made some cool AMVs, but most of them are just fillers.

tuning

Changing your car's appearance to enhance it (in your eyes) - ranges from lame dasher frills and spoilers to reboared cylinders and rechipped injection circuits. It's supposed to make your car go (or just look) faster.

The proud owner of a tuned car won't likely sell it to anyone else.

burakumin

Sort of very poor people in Japan. About 2% of all Japanese citizens. They are heavily discriminated.

Son, that girlfriend of yours is from the burakumin. You must break it up immediately!
