The futility of Ad-Blockers

Ads are filling the entirety of the Web -- websites, podcasts, YouTube videos, etc. -- at an increasing rate. Prices for those ad placements are plummeting. Consumers are desperate to use ad-blockers to make the web palatable. Google (and others) are desperate to break and block ad-blockers. All of which results in... more ads and lower pay for creators.

It's a fascinatingly annoying cycle. And there's only one viable way out of it.

openSUSE says "No Lunduke allowed!"

Those in power with openSUSE make it clear they will not allow me anywhere near anything related to the openSUSE project. Ever. For any reason.

Well, that settles that, then! Guess I won't be contributing to openSUSE! 🤣

Computers are boring...
Here me out here. Pictures below is a motherboard from late 2008. Is an Asus P6T X58 motherboard. You have tons of options and caveats. Want the fastest RAM? You're restricted to 6GB DDR3. Want to max out the RAM? 24GB but you're restricted to 1333 speeds.
You can use SATA, IDE, even floppy. PCI and PCI Express. All options. All things you have to take into consideration.
There are so many parts to consider.
For a nerd, this is like assembling a puzzle. You have to consider how it's all going to work together.
Now?
Well, now you get like 2 PCIe slots and 2 RAM slots, and anything that does anything special is just going to use USB. It all just works. There are only a very few things you have to consider.
That's boring.
It's like taking a puzzle and all sides are the same and each piece is numbered.
Grant it, 99% of the population just wants to put a picture on the wall. But if you like doing puzzles, you want a challenge. And nobody offers a new challenge.
This is why I ...

New: MP4 Downloads for all Lunduke Journal Subscribers

All Lunduke Journal subscribers now have full access to DRM-Free, MP4 versions of every single video released during 2024 and 2025.

No matter where you subscribe to The Lunduke Journal (Substack, Locals, YouTube, X, or Patreon), and no matter what kind of subscription you have (Monthly, Yearly, or Lifetime), you can go to the Subscriber Perks page to get access to some pretty rad goodies:

DRM-Free, MP4 versions of all shows
A dozen PDF eBooks (plus some goofy games)
Full access to the exclusive Lunduke Journal forum

All my way of saying “Thank You” for supporting the important work of The Lunduke Journal. Couldn’t do it without you.

Also worth noting:

Any Lifetime Subscription (or Yearly Subscription picked up through Substack) is “Buy One, Give One” through Friday. Meaning you get a subscription for yourself… and can give a free subscription to whoever you like!

Which. You know. Is pretty awesome.

Final Reminder: Lifetime Price Increase in 24 hours

This is just a super quick reminder (so no body misses out):

This Friday (September 19th), the price of a new Lifetime Subscription to The Lunduke Journal will be increasing from $200 to $300.

Which means: If you want to pick up a new Lifetime Subscription for the lower price, simply grab one (via Locals, Substack, or Bitcoin) by Thursday night (Sep 18th). That’s roughly 24 hours from the moment I am writing these words.

Obviously, once you have a Lifetime Subscription you’re set. You know. For life.

I wanted to give all of you some notice so you could grab one at the lower rate.

Also worth noting: The Lunduke Journal has phased out sales and discount promotions. The current price of a subscription is the best price.

This will be the final reminder before the change goes into effect.
