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.

A domate is a person who is in a relationship or friendship where their partner is considered the dominant one and they are the submissive. While it is usually considered sexual it does not have to be - nor is it strictly man to woman or woman to man. Women to women happen quite frequently while men to men can happen but not as often.
It also means that their partner will do what their dominant one tells them, often without question, to or to accept humiliating verbal insults or to be placed in demeaning situations that test their boundaries from time to time to remind them of their submissive position with them.
Psychologically the domate is usually somewhat immature, easily amused, childish, and has few boundaries. While their mate is Alpha, mature, reserved, and will confront usually quite boldly and with anger anything or anyone that threatens to break up this relationship.
While their dominant mate can be mean and demeaning to their domate most of the time, in truth, they really do look out for them and keep them safe and secure, but they would never admit that to them.

Chat abbreviation. "Shaking my head in agony."
This sort of thing is reserved for when you read or hear about something so incredibly stupid or dangerous, either texted, posted, or chatted, that it physically hurts your head to comprehend. You want to tell them NO or STOP but you know it won't do any good - so this is the best you can tell them.

Everyone is familiar with the story of Casey Jones who up at bat because of his massive ego deliberately let two strikes get by him before he (presumably) would made a home run, but he didn't. He struck out on the last one.
"Pulling a Casey" in this case is used as an action of swindling. It simply means to deliberately flounder, mess up, or make deliberate mistakes in the beginning of a game to encourage competitors and gamblers into thinking they have an easy win.
When in fact their opponent is quite skilled in the area of interest and is waiting for real money to arrive before they show off their incredible and stunning skill at the cost of everyone involved.
It's appropriate in settings of gambling like playing pool or even the shell game.
In the shell game the dealer pulls a Casey with the new players by letting them win a couple of bucks by finding the pea easily enough under the shell.
But the dealer knows full well they're going to bet more and try to win more - and that's when the swindle comes in. Once they have won their confidence on how "easy" the game is.
Pulling a Casey in a game of table pool for instance can show a pool-shark deliberately make bad moves like miss sinking balls and even scratching the cue to encourage bets.
And then after a few bad shots once there is real money involved - that's when the shark plays for keeps and takes the competitors and bets for all they are worth, hustling them for all their money.

"Watch out, dude, he could just be pulling a Casey on you."
