dahmum
/dahmum/ , n. [Usenet] The material of which protracted flame war s,
especially those about operating systems, is composed. Homeomorphic to spam.
The term dahmum is derived from the name of a militant OS/2 advocate, and
originated when an extensively cross-posted OS/2-versus- Linux debate was
fed through Dissociated Press.
