Wankware 

A computer programme, usually written at minimal cost. Typically to perform a specific task within a very specialist business/industrial function or to support a non-mainstream consumer hobby. Often recognizable through poor quality graphics and a cludgy user interface. Can be prone to freezing and crashing and often incompatible with the latest versions of operating systems and key components. Has not been versioned or ported to optimize OS resources and therefore can be painfully slow.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."
