Hey everyone!

Got a few scheduling related bits of awesomeness to update all of you on.

The New Lunduke Journal Events Calendar

There is a brand new Lunduke Journal Events calendar, which you can find over at:

https://lunduke.locals.com/events

Or in the Locals app, there is now an Events tab at the bottom.

This will show you all of the upcoming special events here at The Lunduke Journal. The themed weeks (like the upcoming Command Line and Haiku OS weeks), and some of the next Video Hangouts.

Very handy. Especially considering the ever-growing number of events coming up.

New Weekly Text Chat - Every Saturday

We now have a regularly scheduled text chat — at Lunduke.Locals.com — every Saturday at 12pm (Noon) Eastern.

This text chat is available to everyone who has a full access account over at Lunduke.Locals.com. That includes anyone who is a Founding Member or Lifetime Subscriber… or who subscribes directly via Locals.

(Substack doesn’t have this type of live chat functionality, otherwise I would offer the same thing there. I’m currently looking into a way to make this work for both Locals and Substack subscribers in the future.)

Every Saturday. Noon Eastern. Lunduke.Locals.com.

October Video Hangouts

The Video Hangouts — for Founding Members and Lifetime Subscribers — has been scheduled for the first and third Friday of the month, at 2pm Eastern.

Friday, October 7 @ 2pm Eastern
Friday, October 21 @ 2pm Eastern

These are nice and casual. A chance for a bunch of us to hang out and chat about nerdy stuff for an hour. A relaxed (and nerdy) way to end the work week.

The link for these video hangouts will be sent out before each hangout (though it probably won’t change).

Here comes “Command Line Week”

Command Line Week kicks off on Wednesday, October 12th and runs through Wednesday, October 19th.

A full week, dedicated to the command line. Terminal. Shell. Text Interface. TUI. Whatever you want to call it.

I expect many people will focus on Linux terminal applications… but there’s no reason you can’t take an adventure on UNIX, Windows, Mac, Haiku, DOS, C64, or any other text-based interface you feel like exploring!

I’ll be posting some historical pieces, as well as some cool pieces of software to help get everyone’s creative juices flowing.

The fun will, just as with the previous “DOS Week”, mostly take place at Lunduke.Locals.com.

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 ...

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.

New Lunduke Journal Sub Perks, Lifetime Price Increase Next Week

A quick update: There are some new perks for Lunduke Journal subscribers, and an upcoming price increase for new Lifetime Subscriptions (if you want one of those at the lower price, you have a couple days).

All the details below.

Lifetime Subscription Price Increase

This coming Friday (September 19th), the price of a new Lifetime Subscription to The Lunduke Journal will be increasing from $200 to $300. I wanted to give all of you a few days notice so you could grab one at the lower rate.

If you want to pick up a Lifetime Subscription for the lower price, simply grab one (via Locals, Substack, or Bitcoin) by Thursday night (Sep 18th).

The prices for new Yearly and Monthly subscriptions will remain the same. No changes.

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

New Perks for Lunduke Journal Subscribers

I am working on adding a few new perks for Lunduke Journal subscribers — a way of saying “Thank You” for making this work possible (while still keeping all of the articles and shows free for the world).

Here are the perks as of today.

Perks for all Subscribers (Monthly, Yearly, and Lifetime):

Access to the 12 DRM-free, PDF eBooks.
Access to the “Linux Tycoon” video games (for Linux, DOS, & Windows).
Access to the exclusive Lunduke Journal Forum.

Note: The eBooks & Games are currently only available on Locals & Substack (due to platform features). Those perks will also become available to subscribers on X, YouTube, & Patreon next week. Stay tuned for access details.

Additional (Optional) Perks only for Lifetime Subscribers:

The Lunduke Journal will follow your account on X.
Your name (real, or internet handle) listed in a special thanks slide at the end of new Lunduke Journal videos.

Both of these perks are 100% optional.

If you are a Lifetime Subscriber, and would like to take advantage of either (or both), simply email “bryan at lunduke.com” with the subject line “Lifetime Perk” (that part is important, I get so many emails this will help me see yours) and include a link to your X profile and/or the way you want your name to appear at the end of videos.

One of the nice parts of having Lunduke Journal follow your X account… is it will make it far easier (and more likely) for me to see your comments.

Thank You

I am working to expand all of the regular perks (books, etc.) to subscribers across all platforms (which was a little tricky, considering the differences in each platform, but I managed to figure out how to do it) — while adding a few new ones as well.

Nothing crazy, just a way of saying “Thank You”.

Seriously.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support. The Lunduke Journal is only possible thanks to each and every one of you.
