waffling

Adding confusing/meaningless words into your speech to
1) Inflate the show time, or
2) Cover the fact that you don't have an idea.

Bla bla bla you know, it's like that, as we all surely know.

burakumin

Sort of very poor people in Japan. About 2% of all Japanese citizens. They are heavily discriminated.

Son, that girlfriend of yours is from the burakumin. You must break it up immediately!

Windows Server 2003

It is a successor to the Windows 2000 operating system that can be used both as a server and as a workstation, where a conversion may be done (although undesirable at the registry level - you essentially get a bloated XP then) by hand, preferably. The system runs indeed smoothly, but only if a person knows what he is doing. The system is more picky on various drivers' defects, so one has to adjust for example the service "Start" type from Auto (2) to On demand (3). The system also accepts nearly all Windows XP drivers (the Compatibility tab helps to the rest) so that no faux-pas seen on the Windows XP rise vs. older hardware can surprise you. You can download a Service Pack 1 for this system and integrate it into your installation to fix many bugs and enable the NX bit-based buffer overrun protection.
To return to the conversion to a desktop environment, I recommend tweaking in gpedit.msc a lot and copy nusrmgr.cpl from Windows XP to simplify the user management. You use the said Group Policy Editor to remove the "Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete" nag screen, remove the asking for the reason for shutdown etc.

Right now, I'm running many services and applications on my Windows Server 2003 box. They include all of the common internet services - the web, secure HTTP, FTP, DNS, DHCP, NAT routing with port forwarding and countless small ones. As for the user interface (UI), I use StyleXP. All "serious" applications work, I can play GTA:SA, DOOM 3, Manhunt, Postal 2 and most other such games under this OS.

monster trucks

The cars (usually Jeeps or any other terrain ones) modified in the way that their wheels don't fit into the dashers anymore and it's somewhat like a tractor. It's an extreme kind of tuning that makes the car useless but for the fans' exhibitions.

That freak told us that he would jump over 3 cars on the parking lot with his monster truck. However, he then dispersed with a lame excuse.

Digital

(adj.) Describes any kind of information that is stored as a sequence of bits rather than as the kind of information stored without sharp differences like a flow of sound on tape or ink on paper, which are examples of analog record. The analog information is susceptible to noise, aging and corruption during copying much more than the digital media.

The word digital comes from Latin digitus = finger, which refers to the bit yes/no structure of the information - the finger is either up or down.
