Run To Failure. The act of continuing to use aged and undermaintained equipment in an effort to take advantage of business accounting tax laws regarding depreciation of equipment, which then allow degrading systems to 'Deepwater Horizon' or 'West Pharmaceutical Services Dust Explosion' themselves with corporate assistance often causing death, injury, and catastrophic economic and environmental consequences causing cascading drops in relevant markets with perhaps privately predictable results (depending on the accuracy of things like MTBF of points of ciritical failure).
"Why are they RTFing the main production line already? We can't even get new bearings for the high-speeds! There's still millions in the burn pool, We're on trajectory! It makes no sense"
"Oh, rumor has it they 'owe themselves money' from their other 'interests' so they're going to do a dip-and-flip and rename us. That's why the crane is parked out there at $40K a day not doing anything. They SNAFUd the announcement and now all 20 letters of their new sign are spread out along the Jersey Turnpike like the Hulk got mad at the Hollywood sign."
"Oh. But won't those bearings fail.. right after the 'takeover' and then..."
"Long vacation around that so we miss it when it happens?"
"MTBF on that bearing set?"
"June? Vacation in Maui?"
"Guess so. Won't want to be here."

Alternate spelling of 'video'. Actually a typo, but one made so commonly that by entering here in UD we can all pretend we meant to type it that way. If you really want to stick to your guns, you will need to find a way to say it aloud as 'vy-eh-do' to prove that you are not an idiot who insists on false being true, but instead are an idiot who would say 'vy-eh-do' out loud, and then have to defend your pronunciation when your equally idiot friends make fun of you yet again by saying it's pronounced 'vee-aye-do' with an emphasis on the second syllable, whereas you put emphasis on the first. It's OK though, we still love you. Even if you're an idiot among idiots for not just backspacing or saying 'my bad'.
I like cat viedo, especially the one where the kitten with the lime on his head is saying 'can i has steak'

Blindy agreeding to let a random company stick your 'brain' (you) inside an expert or AI system so that they can use you like a ventriliquist's dummy to make more money, in exchange for being to able to have a cool autoreply message when someone Follows you, and then complaining about 'bots' and the Internet in general and how you are worried *a lot* about privacy, as you just told us about on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
