firmalize 

To increase the conduction between a device's internal components at the point of connection by securing the non-electrical parts together through external means.

For example, tying a small nylon strap tightly around the processor and headpiece plug of a cochlear implant device in order to secure them together, reducing vibration and preventing the internal connection points from becoming disconnected.
My device kept resetting because the metal ring inside the connector was loose, so I firmalized it with a rubber band.

Finalize 

The process when additional data is written (burnt) out to optical disc, so they can played everywhere, however, you cannot edit any data inside the disc, let alone erasing the whole disc (CD±RW, DVD±RW, DVD±RAM, and BDRE are the exceptions, because DVD±RAM cannot be finalized, while RW-disc and BDRE can be erased, though you cannot edit the data after you finalize it---so you need to erase the whole disc and repeat the burning process if there's any mistakes)
This process also known as "Closing"
If you don't finalize the CD, this player cannot read it

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
