From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
-oid suff.   [from Greek suffix -oid = `in the image of'] 1.    Used as in mainstream slang English to indicate a poor imitation, a    counterfeit, or some otherwise slightly bogus resemblance.   Hackers    will happily use it with all sorts of non-Greco/Latin stem words    that wouldn't keep company with it in mainstream English.   For    example, "He's a nerdoid" means that he superficially resembles a    nerd but can't make the grade; a `modemoid' might be a 300-baud box    (Real Modems run at 28.8 or up); a `computeroid' might be any {bitty    box}.   The word `keyboid' could be used to describe a {chiclet    keyboard}, but would have to be written; spoken, it would confuse    the listener as to the speaker's city of origin.   2. More    specifically, an indicator for `resembling an android' which in the    past has been confined to science-fiction fans and hackers.   It too    has recently (in 1991) started to go mainstream (most notably in the    term `trendoid' for victims of terminal hipness).   This is probably    traceable to the popularization of the term {droid} in "Star Wars"    and its sequels.   (See also {windoid}.)          Coinages in both forms have been common in science fiction for at    least fifty years, and hackers (who are often SF fans) have probably    been making `-oid' jargon for almost that long [though GLS and I can    personally confirm only that they were already common in the    mid-1970s --ESR].

Ode          An {Object-Oriented Database} from {AT&T} which extends {C++}       and supports fast queries, complex application modelling and       {multimedia}.          Ode uses one integrated data model ({C++} {class}es) for both       database and general purpose manipulation.   An Ode database is       a collection of {persistent} {object}s.   It is defined,       queried and manipulated using the language {O++}.   O++       programs can be compiled with C++ programs, thus allowing the       use of existing C++ code.   O++ provides facilities for       specifying transactions, creating and manipulating persistent       objects, querying the database and creating and manipulating       versions.          The Ode object database provides four object compatible       mechanisms for manipulating and querying the database.   As       well as O++ there are OdeView - an {X Window System}       interface; OdeFS (a file system interface allowing objects to       be treated and manipulated like normal Unix files); and CQL++,       a {C++} variant of {SQL} for easing the transition from       {relational database}s to OODBs such as Ode.          Ode supports large objects (critical for {multimedia}       applications).   Ode tracks the relationship between versions       of objects and provides facilities for accessing different       versions.   Transactions can be specified as read-only; such       transactions are faster because they are not logged and they       are less likely to {deadlock}.   'Hypothetical' transactions       allow users to pose "what-if" scenarios (as with       {spreadsheet}s).          EOS, the {storage engine} of Ode, is based on a client-server       architecture.   EOS supports {concurrency} based on       {multi-granularity} two-version two-phase locking; it allows       many readers and one writer to access the same item       simultaneously.   Standard two-phase locking is also available.       Ode supports both a {client-server} mode for multiple users       with concurrent access and a single user mode giving improved       performance.          Ode 3.0 is currently being used as the {multimedia} {database       engine} for {AT&T}'s {Interactive TV} project.   Ode 2.0 has       also been distributed to more than 80 sites within AT&T and       more than 340 universities.   Ode is available free to       universities under a non-disclosure agreement.   The current       version, 3.0, is available only for {Sun} {SPARCstations}       running {SunOS} 4.1.3 and {Solaris} 2.3.   Ode is being ported       to {Microsoft} {Windows NT}, {Windows 95} and {SGI}       {platform}s.          E-mail: Narain Gehani .          (1994-08-18)

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Oath       a solemn appeal to God, permitted on fitting occasions (Deut.       6:13; Jer. 4:2), in various forms (Gen. 16:5; 2 Sam. 12:5; Ruth       1:17; Hos. 4:15; Rom. 1:9), and taken in different ways (Gen.       14:22; 24:2; 2 Chr. 6:22). God is represented as taking an oath       (Heb. 6:16-18), so also Christ (Matt. 26:64), and Paul (Rom.       9:1; Gal. 1:20; Phil. 1:8). The precept, "Swear not at all,"       refers probably to ordinary conversation between man and man       (Matt. 5:34,37). But if the words are taken as referring to       oaths, then their intention may have been to show "that the       proper state of Christians is to require no oaths; that when       evil is expelled from among them every yea and nay will be as       decisive as an oath, every promise as binding as a vow."
