The latest in a series of distressing but regularly tolerated events that gives rise to the first obvious sign of intolerance towards the offending party, usually in the form of a drastic decision or the offer of an ultimatum. May have come from shortening the idiom/expression "the straw that breaks the camel's back", relating the distress caused by the offending party to stacking straw on the back of a camel over time until it collapses under the weight.
After a series of non-explicit infarctions, Jimmy McGill loudly disturbing his coworkers with his bagpipes is the last straw that forces Cliff Main to fire him from his law firm without cause.

Person 2: Don't you mean The Last Failbender?
Person 3: I didn't think it was that bad...
Persons 1 and 2: WTF?!

A nasty website that spawns an endless flurry of pop-up windows with various porn pics. Accompanied by a loud sound clip: "HEY EVERYBODY!! I'M LOOKING AT GAY PORN!!"
What to do when encountering Last Measure:
1. Turn off the monitor before the images load.
2. Turn off the speakers before the sound loads.
(If you can, do steps 1 and 2 at the same time.)
3. Hard reboot the computer.

The ultimate moment of opportunity, just before it is too late. Sometimes last minute is actually too little too late, but most of the time in underdog situations the last minute is a great time to accomplish goals

Military term for when you know you're fucked and have no chance of winning, but you fight anyway to keep it going as long as possible.
