From February 15th through 22nd we are going to be immersing ourselves in the wonderful world of BSD here at The Lunduke Journal of Technology!
I’ve been looking forward to BSD Week for quite a while!
I have a few articles in the pipe for the week — including “The History of BSD” (which is absolutely fascinating), “The History of vi” (a story that is deeply connected to BSD), along with some adventures into some of the weirder parts of the BSD world. Both old and new.
I’ll also be chronicling my attempts to use a few BSD systems over on Locals. Should be a ton of fun.
How to get the most out of BSD Week
While there will be a number of articles posted to Lunduke.Substack.com, you’ll want two things to really get the most out of the week:
An account on Lunduke.Locals.com — this is where the community will be posting about their own adventures in BSD land (along with a number of Lunduke’s posts that won’t appear anywhere else).
A full subscription to The Lunduke Journal of Technonolgy — some of the best articles will be only for full, paid subscribers.
If you’ve got those two things… you’re all set!
BSD Week will officially kick off at 8am (Eastern Time) on Wednesday morning — with a kickoff podcast and article. Though folks over on Lunduke.Locals.com have been getting ready for this one for quite some time!
You can participate in BSD Week in oh-so-many ways! Everything from installing and running a BSD variant on your own system… to simply lurking and enjoying the articles, podcasts, and posts from the community.
A little incentive in case you haven’t picked up your subscription yet
At the beginning of the month, the third publication in “The Lunduke Journal Triforce of Nerdiness” was announced, focusing on Nerdy Entertainment.
And, with it, the Lunduke Journal Founding Membership option was expanded to include full access to all three publications — including full access to both Substack and Locals.
This really is the best way to take full advantage of everything happening here in the world of The Lunduke Journal. To make it a bit easier to take the plunge — and help you to follow the fun — the price is reduced until the end of BSD Week.
From now until February 22nd at 8am (Eastern), the following discounts are in effect:
One Year of Founding Membership is $95 -- (Normally $125)
A Lifetime Membership is $295 -- (Normally $350)
Important Note: This is only available if you pick up the subscription via Locals.
To get a Founding Member Subscription:
Choose the "Annual" option.
Enter "$95" in the amount field.
To get a Lifetime Subscription:
Go to Lunduke.Locals.com/support.
Choose "Give Once".
Enter "$295" in the amount field.
Lunduke will then set your accounts to full access across the whole Lunduke Journal family of publications (it is a manual process, so give Lunduke a few hours to take care of it). And feel free to reach out at [email protected] if you have any questions or hit any snags.
