not even wrong

Worse than wrong, being an untestable claim. Originally used by physicist Wolfgang Pauli to criticize pseudoscience even harsher than simple scientific errors:"This is not right. This is not even wrong."

Your theory makes no predictions, comes to no conclusions and is just tons of speculation. It's not even wrong.

ne bis in idem

Latin phrase meaning "not twice for the same", a legal rule that states someone cannot be prosecuted twice for the same crime. This is usually implemented into legal procedure as double jeopardy.

The prosecution attempted to have the suspect prosecuted afterwards when they found new evidence, but this was impossible because of the ne bis in idem rule.

vcore

Core voltage of a computer system, sometimes raised for overclocking (can get too hot) or lowered for cooling (can cause system to receive insufficient power). The vcore is the base voltage value to which the voltage of the separate connections are added: 3.3V, 5V or 12V. All these things together provide the system's power.

Don't set your vcore too low, the system might not even boot up.

angry fruit salad

An interface or layout that has too many bright colors, often hideously contrasting for maximum eyestrain. Prevalent in MacOS and recently Windows XP that have extremely colorful menus and buttons. The term "angry fruit salad" refers to the fact that canned fruit salad often looked unnaturally colorful, almost neonlike. The sight of such a color jumble was then referred to as an angry fruit salad.

I don't like the iMac's OS...too much angry fruit salad.
