- adj. When someone is ignoring you. In a restaurant, after several fruitless attempts to get the waitress's attention, a hacker might well observe She must have interrupts locked out. The synonym interrupts disabled is also common. Variations abound; to have one's interrupt mask bit set and interrupts masked out are also heard. See also spl. + adj. When someone is ignoring you.
