"Command Line Week" starts tomorrow!
Schedule of events and how to get yourself ready.
October 11, 2022

Our last themed week (“DOS Week” — where we all spent a week playing with DOS) was an absolute blast.

And now our second themed week is about to begin… Command Line Week!

Here is a quick outline of the schedule of events (all times Eastern):

  • Wednesday, Oct 12 @ 8am — Command Line Week kickoff podcast

  • All Week — The Community posting all manner of Command Line goodies at Lunduke.Locals.com

  • Saturday, Oct 15 @ 11am — Video Hangout for Founding Members and Lifetime Subscribers

  • Saturday, Oct 15 @ 12pm — Text Chat for all subscribers over on Lunduke.Locals.com

  • Wednesday, Oct 19 @ 8am — Wrap-up podcast

Plus: Over the course of the week, I’ll be posting articles related to the Command Line (Linux Shells, etc.) on The Lunduke Journal — like the recent “The History of the First Computer Shell”.

How to Prepare for Command Line Week

What sort of command line you use during Command Line Week is entirely up to you! Linux, Mac, Windows, *BSD, Haiku… pick your OS and shell! Heck, if you want to run an older, text-only system… that’s cool too!

One of our Lunduke Journal Community Members (Gabe) has created a, most excellent, list of text interface software to help people get started. It contains all sorts of fantastic recommendations — all categorized — with handy links to help get them installed. Most of his recommendations run on Linux as well as macOS, Windows, and Free/OpenBSD.

Make sure you have a Lunduke.Locals.com account!

This is key to unlocking the full enjoyment of Command Line Week!

While Substack is absolutely amazing, Locals provides the community features we need to fully enjoy the awesomeness of something like this — including the ability for everyone to make top-level posts, live chats, and more. It simply is not possible entirely via Substack.

To make getting a Locals account easier for folks, I’m going to have a very specific sale… that is only available if you take advantage of it through Lunduke.Locals.com.

I know. I know. I said I wasn’t going to have any more sales this year. But I am so excited about Command Line Week — I don’t want anyone to miss out! Plus… I’m the boss. I can change my mind if I want to. ;)

How to take advantage of this deal

Repeat: This sale is only available if you create an account on Lunduke.Locals.com. The whole point is to bring more of you over to Locals to enjoy the good times! However, both of these options also come with full access on Substack as well! Best of both worlds!

  1. Go to Lunduke.Locals.com/Subscription.

  2. Choose “Card” and “Annual”.

  3. Enter the amount of the subscription you want (choose from the options below).

  4. Lunduke will follow up with you to make sure you have full access to both Substack and Locals. (This usually only takes a couple hours.)

Founding Member Subscription - Cost: $125 / Year $75 / Year

Benefits: Everything from the Standard Subscription, plus:

  • A monthly video hangout with Lunduke & other Founding Members

  • Full access to both Lunduke.Locals.com and Lunduke.Substack.com

  • Founding Member Email Newsletter

  • Personalized Audio Messages

Lifetime Subscription - Cost $350 (one time) $200 (one time)

Benefits: Everything from the Founding Member Subscription:

  • For life… pay once, and and you get all of the perks… for as long as The Lunduke Journal exists. Which, considering Lunduke has been publishing articles and podcasts for over 15 years, is likely to be a good, long time.

I highly recommend the Lifetime Subscription. It is just such a good deal.

Note: This deal cannot be combined with the “Upgrade System of Awesomeness” (where you can apply your current subscription towards an upgraded one. It’s already too good of a deal. Stacking them would just be… insane. :)

See everyone during Command Line Week!

I am psyched. So much to share. So many things to try. And so very, very excited to see what all of you find, do, say, and recommend!

We all learned so much about DOS during “DOS Week”… I expect Command Line Week to be at least as awesome!

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! 🤣

It's been a crazy few weeks, and this week has been quite rough so I haven't been online very much, but I wanted to share the latest podcast episode with all of you. It was my first time conducting an interview and it was with our very own @leebase. We actually recorded it a couple weeks ago and the video was released to my paid subscribers, but now the audio version is available to everyone. Many thanks to Lee for coming on the show to share his insights into AI and what it holds for all of us moving forward. I would love to hear feedback and/or suggestions for future shows. Enjoy!
