luser
Sign in to saveAlso known as local user
Before the popularization of the Internet in the 1990s, Internet slang defined a luser (sometimes expanded to local user; also luzer or luzzer) as 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 partially interchangeable with the hacker term lamer.

Luser (contração de user (usuário) com loser (perdedor), é um usuário de Internet que necessita possuir apenas o conhecimento necessário para utilizar um computador e terminar suas tarefas rapidamente. Ao contrário dos newbies, estes não querem aprender nada, apenas utilizar de forma básica os recursos da máquina.
