Dito

Eduardo José Gomes Camassele Mendes (born 18 January 1962 in Barcelos), known as Dito, is a retired Portuguese footballer who played as a central defender, and a manager.

Club career

During 16 professional seasons Dito appeared in 358 Primeira Liga matches, starting his career with S.C. Braga, for which he was already an important first-team member at the age of 18, and signing with S.L. Benfica in 1986 after six years in Minho.

During his two season-spell with Benfica, Dito played in 27 league games in his first year as the Lisbon club won the double, then partnered Carlos Mozer in his second (no silverware won). He then moved to rivals and title holders FC Porto for one season, with Benfica regaining its domestic supremacy at the expense of precisely the northerners.

From 1989 to 1994, always in the top division, Dito represented Vitória de Setúbal, S.C. Espinho and Gil Vicente FC. After an unassuming stint with A.D. Ovarense in the second level he retired from football, aged 34.

Dito's biggest achievement as a coach was managing S.C. Salgueiros over the course of three top flight campaigns, being sacked after the tenth round of 1999–2000 as the Paranhos team eventually retained its status. In 2009 he returned to his first team Braga, being appointed at its junior sides.

In Internet slang, a luser (sometimes expanded to local user; also luzer or luzzer) is a painfully annoying, stupid, or irritating computer user. The word is a blend of "loser" and "user". Among hackers, the word luser takes on a broad meaning, referring to any normal user (in other words, not a "guru"), with the implication the person is also a loser. The term is interchangeable with the hacker term lamer.

It can also signify a layman with only user account privileges, as opposed to a power user or administrator, who has knowledge of, and access to, superuser accounts; for example, an end luser who cannot be trusted with a root account for system administration. This term is popular with technical support staff who have to deal with lusers as part of their job, often metaphorically employing a LART (Luser Attitude Readjustment Tool, also known as a clue-by-four, cluestick, or cluebat), meaning turning off the user's access to computer resources and the like.

LART (computer)

LART is a single-board computer (SBC) designed by staff of the University of Delft/Netherlands.

The creators advertise complete layout by means of CAD files, software and kernel patches for Linux. The software is released under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL), and the Hardware design is released under the MIT License. TU Delft built some boards, some people built their own LARTs (the board can be made at home by a competent engineer), and a batch was produced and sold in 2002-2003 by Aleph One Ltd and Remote 12, in an early demonstration of the viability of the Open Hardware concept (manufacture can be performed by groups other than the designers and copyright holders).

The standard LART configuration featured 32 MB DRAM and 4 MB Flash ROM. Most interesting is the low-power consumption of less than 1 W while providing ~ 250 MIPS, making it an ideal system for embedded computing.

The project also spun off an Open Hardware parallel port JTAG interface board and the Blob bootloader.
