Sunday Show Questions, Final hours for new Lifetime Subs
March 15, 2023

As Lunduke recovers from yesterday’s move to our new home town — driving across three states with three kids in the back seat — there are a couple quick

1- Subscription Changes take effect tonight

Starting tonight — at Midnight (Central Time) — the following changes will go into effect:

  1. The Standard Monthly (and Yearly) Subscription — along with the Yearly Founding Member Subscription) price is going up.

    1. Existing subscribers will be grandfathered in at their existing price.

  2. No new Lifetime Subscriptions will be offered.

    1. Existing Lifetime Subscriptions are honored for life. Naturally.

I tried to give everyone a bunch of notice and reminders on this, so hopefully nobody misses it. ;) I’m offering a discount on these subscriptions until Midnight (see below).

2- Send in your questions for the Big Sunday Tech Show

There are two ways you can send in your questions:

  1. Email them to bryan at lunduke.com with the subject “Show Question”.

  2. Or, even better, post them to this thread on Lunduke.Locals.com.

Any question or topic is fair game — as long as it’s good and Computer-y.

3- Final hours of this Lifetime Subscription Sale

Until Midnight tonight — when the subscription changes go into effect — I’m offering the following.

Here’s the deal:

  • Any subscription of $50 (or over) will qualify for a Founding Member Subscription.

  • And anything of $125 (or over) will qualify for a Lifetime Subscription

Both options give you full access to all sites in The Lunduke Journal (including both Locals and Substack). See here for details on all the perks.

To get a Founding Member Subscription:

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

  2. Choose the "Annual" option.

  3. Enter "$50" (or more) in the amount field.

To get a Lifetime Subscription:

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

  2. Choose "Give Once".

  3. Enter "$125" (or more) in the amount field.

Note I am processing these manually, so give me a few hours to upgrade your accounts (on both Substack and Locals) after you make the purchase. I will contact each of you by email after I set your accounts properly. If you don’t hear from me within a day, send an email to [email protected] to make sure your accounts get full access.

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! 🤣

Life with AI Employees

I’ve been living with the beginning stages of having AI employees - agents. How so? Let’s talk about it.

Using AI to chat is one thing. You ask a question, get answer. Push back. Even have full fledged conversations and have it write code. Super valuable to me. But the AI couldn’t DO anything.

Next up was AI in my IDE. Now when I give it directions to code, it can code away creating new files, editing existing ones. Next level up in getting value. Love it.

Now we enter the world of AI agents. And here is where the experience starts to feel like having employees. My primary agent is the Warp terminal. It is my system admin on demand. We are well beyond chatting “how do I” and getting an answer that I type in myself. I now give the agent a task, and then the agent makes a plan and accomplishes the task. THAT - is starting to feel like having an employee.

I’m not speaking as in: now I can fire humans and replace them with AI. That’s a debate for another day. I don’t HAVE...

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.

Lunduke Journal Week In Review - Jan 16th, 2025

Whew! It’s been another wild week for Tech News!

Here’s a crazy stat for ya:

We are currently 16 days into 2026, and The Lunduke Journal has already recorded 19 shows (17 of which have been published on every platform, and 2 others to be published this weekend everywhere… but are already available via the MP4 download page). And that’s with taking New Year’s Day off (and getting the flu this week).

It’s a heck of a lot of Tech News, to be sure.

Lunduke’s Top Stories for the Week

If you only have time to watch a few of shows, I recommend these 3 as being the most interesting (or important… or just… strange) from the last week:

In other words: A pretty gosh-darned crazy week for Linux.

(Those links are to Lunduke.Substack.com, but you can watch all of those shows on any other platform. As always.)

Other Tidbits of Awesomeness

A few other notes on this, most excellent, Friday!

And, with that, I leave you with a screenshot of the MP4 listing of the shows so far in 2026. Bonkers.
