I guess I *could* get a new T-shirt, to replace the one I got in *checks wardrobe* 1992.

Arse. That link is missing episodes 7 & 8. This one has all 8 episodes:

@natharari @davep

I don’t have the BBC radio plays, but it’s available on the Internet Archive. https://archive.org/details/foundationtrilogythe--bbc1973radiodrama8hours

I *do* have the books-on-tape versions (digitised) of most (if not all) of the Foundation series, if either of you are interested… HMU and I’ll package them up.

@xtaldave That sounds fun!

@statsguy I was hoping Murdoch’s empire would be censured, and possibly neutered. At least some of the truth is out.

@rjblaskiewicz Posthumous students are the worst. They eat all the cake.

@Tengrain @rjblaskiewicz There’s a Hank Scorpio moment if ever I’ve heard of one.

@natharari @davep Sadly it looks like it was an unfortunate victim of the Great QNAP Disaster of 2017. 😒 I’ll continue to have a scoot around and see if it might be lurking on a CD or old USB drive something…

@Pat Apologies, force of habit. I should have taken your response as a request given the context. ✌️

@davep @natharari I *may* have a copy somewhere. I’ll take a looksee, and inbox you if I do.

@natharari @davep The old (BBC?) radio plays are worth a listen, too for another take on the books. They should be available somewhere out there (*waves hands vaguely towards the interwebs*).

@Pat For reference #YPLAC is (was?) a popular account and hashtag on the birdsite/$8chan. There doesn’t seem to have been much of an uptake on it in the fediverse, yet, at least not that I’m aware of.

@Pat “You Drive Like a Cunt” and “You Park Like a Cunt”, respectively. The pejoratives here are British English, fwiw. I know how squeamish some other cultures can be about certain words.

Is there a #YDLAC (in the vein of #YPLAC) for twenty-something morons who drive for literally miles glued to their fucking phone and faffing with their fucking hair instead of paying attention to the fucking road? Asking for a me.

Note to self: get a rear cam fitted.

TIL there is a non-zero “legal limit” for cocaine while driving. 😳

Perl: There's more than one way to do it
Python: There are 37,234,108 ways to do it, and all of them are inefficient as fuck, except that one way which you can only find out about if you sacrifice your self-respect and five pints of your own blood on the altar of StackOverflow, if you're not first flamed to hell for asking an inappropriate question.

@arclight I have no words.
