Cablegami 

Refers to the art of arranging the cables inside one's computer case in a very tightly-integrated, neat, airflow-friendly manner. (This is especially important for those with windows in their rigs.) Derived from the Japanese "origami", the art of paper folding. Cablegami not only involves folding and twisting of cables, but, like origami, it is maddeningly difficult to do well.

"Yeah, for a second I thought he had a wireless hard drive."

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
