"D" Terms

dyor
Internet
Do Your Own Research — appended to almost any crypto opinion, alpha drop, or coin shill as a liability shield. Means: I'm telling you about this thing but if you lose your money it's not on me. Often genuine advice, often a fig leaf for what's effectively a pump.
dyscopia
General
Fake medical Latin — 'dys-' (bad/disordered) plus '-copia' from English 'cope' — that sounds like a real diagnosis but means the patient (or family, or social setup) has run out of road at home and ended up in a hospital bed nobody can clinically justify. Often code for an elderly patient with dementia and no working care package. Looks proper on a chart; isn't.
dysregulated
Internet
Describing behavior driven by a flooded nervous system rather than calm thought.
dz
General
'Drop Zone' — the designated ground area onto which paratroopers or supplies are dropped by parachute.
