Lunduke sick as a dog, Weekend shows delayed

Some of you are already aware, but the Lunduke clan just this week moved to our new home town… and immediately got sick. Super, duper sick.

As of right now, I can’t go more than a few minutes without coughing and just generally feel like garbage.

While this illness has made my voice sound unnaturally deep and gravelly — which I kinda dig — unfortunately this means that there is absolutely no way I can record any sort of show until my lungs and throat recover. Plus I had a gnarly fever last night, which left me unable to even write a single coherent sentence. Which means…

The Saturday live shows will need to be rescheduled to a future date. We’ll pick which day when I’m feeling all the way better. It’ll be something soon.
The Sunday Big Tech Show will be recorded on whichever day I am feeling good enough to do so. Hopefully I’m better by Sunday, but if not it’ll be LastDayLundukeIsSick+1.
You probably won’t see many new articles over the next couple days. Possibly a funny pictures post or two. But that’s about all I have the strength to do (after this email).

Apologies as I know many of you were looking forward to this weekends shows (as was I), but my immune system had other plans.

Fingers crossed that I can kick this thing and be back to normal quickly.

The Big Tech Execs in The Epstein Files

Elon Musk, Tim Cook, Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, Sergey Brin, Steven Sinofsky, Richard Branson, and Steve Ballmer. All in the Epstein Files... but for different reasons. Plus: The BASH manual. Seriously.

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! 🤣

You know, I've forgotten how much I enjoy hanging out here. :-D

I love that @Lunduke continues reporting the news that isn't getting reported anywhere else. Sometimes it gets old - another foundation or whoever goes hard left, another tech legend got banned, another system gets hacked, etc. But it's important enough that I still want to follow it. And he still works in some fun stuff too (like his ReactOS piece, which kinda has me wanting to create my own Linux distro with a fully Win32 userland). :-D

But he's not the only one creating awesome stuff on here! In case you're not aware...

@Greg_Gauthier has not one, not two, but three channels going! Old Computer Nerd, Old Sci-Fi Nerd, and Old Philosophy Nerd. I just spent like 2 hours following along on this cool "let's do a type-in BASIC program" video. More on that later.
@Dirt2901 posts random YouTube videos that always lead to fun! Whether it's new emulators, computing history, tutorials, or random stuff like "hard to ...

$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:

Grab the $89 Lifetime Subscription before it ends tomorrow night.
High five yourself for saving money and supporting Indie Tech Journalism.
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.

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