eight bit 

1/16 oz of cannabis resin. Used to cost £8 and you were meant to get 8 joints out of it (but more like 3 to 5). Most dealers would not sell quantities so small.

Term used in the west of Scotland in the 1990s. I wouldn't know if it is still used (its likely that drug prices have changed since then).
unreliable scoundrel: Got any hash, Mr dealer?
Mr dealer: Alas not.
unreliable scoundrel: Not even an eight bit?

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
