Schedule change, More Live Shows, Lunduke's Birthday
February 16, 2023

Helloooo nerds!

A couple quick tidbits everyone should be aware of:

A small change to the upcoming show schedule

There’s been some exciting news here in the Lunduke world — The Lunduke Clan, after having traveled the country extensively, has chosen a new town to call home. As such we will be in the process of settling down over the coming weeks and months.

Because of that, the “macOS Sucks” show scheduled for later in February has been moved to Saturday, March 18th — it will join “Linux Sucks 2023” for a Mega Lunduke Weekend Event (starting at 6pm Central Time, and running back to back). Should be a lot of fun.

I have updated the official Schedule page on Locals to reflect all of the upcoming events. I’ll try to keep this spot updated with additions and changes.

More Live Shows coming to all three publications

Now that we have three — completely different, but still nerdy — publications and communities… each one will be getting some regular Live Events.

In the coming days I will be announcing two new live shows — big shows, with fancy-shmancy slide-decks, ala “Linux Sucks” — one coming to our Nerdy Entertainment publication, and one coming to our Political publication.

And, just like with Linux Sucks, these will be exclusive for subscribers.

Is that a subtle hint? Probably.

This Saturday is Lunduke’s Birthday

I have put together a comprehensive list of what I would like for my birthday this year:

  • One Million Dollars

  • Post a funny nerdy picture

Choose whichever sounds best to you. I’m flexible. Both sound nice.

Don’t forget about this discount during BSD Week

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.

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:

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

  2. Choose the "Annual" option.

  3. Enter "$95" in the amount field.

To get a Lifetime Subscription:

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

  2. Choose "Give Once".

  3. 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.

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! 🤣

"Andreas Kling creator of Serenity OS & Ladybird Web Browser" - Lunduke’s Big Tech Show - September 13th, 2023 - Ep 044

Am I psycho? I just installed Slackware and I'm really enjoying it. I used the Slackware Live to boot and install from which was a breath of fresh air. Text based installer asking questions that actually matter. Then the documentation is wonderful. It treats you like you aren't stupid but also explains why you're doing whatever you're doing so you can learn. Crazy thought, <sarcasm> teach a man to fish? How absurd. </sarcasm>
Anyways, the whole thing doesn't lock me into any choices for anything I may or may not want to use. Default state is, you decide. Heck, sudo isn't even enabled by default. (Sadly, I had to remember how we used to use Linux before sudo.)
I really, really like this. So if there is some political reason I shouldn't be using this, please, just keep your mouth shut.

I thought this was funny for something that's current political events.

Alright everyone, we're gearing up for this snow storm in the morning, so I wanted to get this one out before the fun begins. Thought this one might be right up the alleys for several of you graybeards. Enjoy!

$89 Lifetime Offer Ends at Midnight!

I’ll make this quick: The $89 Lifetime Subscription offer for The Lunduke Journal ends at midnight tonight (Saturday, January 31st).

Once the calendar reads “February” — poof — the deal is gone.

If you wanted to save 70% on a Lifetime Subscription, these are your final hours.

A huge thank you to everyone who has signed up during this crazy deal. We are this close to filling up the 4th Lifetime Subscriber Wall (there’s a possibility it might fill up in the next few hours).

Far beyond anything I was expecting. All of you are absolutely amazing. The Lunduke Journal would not be possible without you.

If you were on contemplating grabbing that Lifetime Sub, I’d jump on it right now. The price goes back up to normal ($300) in about 12 hours or so.

Get it while it’s cheap!

The End of the $89 Lifetime Sub is Nigh!

Quick reminder: The massive deal The Lunduke Journal has been running — 70%+ off Lifetime Subscriptions, 50% off all other subscriptions — ends after tomorrow (Saturday, January 31st).

Considering that, here are the steps I recommend:

  1. Grab the $89 Lifetime Subscription before it ends tomorrow night.

  2. High five yourself for saving money and supporting Indie Tech Journalism.

  3. Maybe… grab a donut?

That is all.

$89 Lifetime Lunduke Subs ends this week!

Quick heads up, that the $89 Lifetime Subscription to The Lunduke Journal discount ends… at the end of this week!

Discounting Lifetime Subscriptions by over 70% was an absolute blast. So many of you took advantage of the offer that we’re now up to four Lifetime Subscriber walls at the end of every video. Crazy!

But something that awesome can’t last forever. Which means that, in just a few days, Lifetime Subscriptions will return to their regular price of $300.

With no plans to do another wild discount like that any time soon.

So.

  1. If you haven’t already, snag an $89 (via Bitcoin) or $99 (via Substack or Locals) Lifetime Subscription.

  2. Then let me know if you’d like to be added to the Lifetime Wall of Shame Awesomeness.

My guess is, a the current rate, that 4th Lifetime Wall will be full by Friday.

Bonkers.

And, once again, thank you to each and every subscriber. The Lunduke Journal would not be possible without you.
