An alternate spelling of 'kaput' — meaning broken, finished, dead, or completely done for. Something that's kaputz has given up the ghost entirely: a phone with a cracked screen and no battery, a friendship that imploded, or a car that just won't start. The '-z' ending gives it a slightly more emphatic or comedic flavour, like you're really hammering home just how thoroughly wrecked the thing is. Used informally across English-speaking countries.
Tried to restart the router four times — it's totally kaputz.
