11 Hours left! How to keep getting The Lunduke Journal.
May 15, 2023

Apologies to all the amazing Locals subscribers who are already set up.  I've got to make sure everyone gets this message so I'm repeating myself a lot today.  It's super critical.  The good news: These reminders end at midnight!  🤣

We’ve only got 11 hours left in the great Substack to Locals migration of The Lunduke Journal!

After Midnight tonight (Monday, May 15th):

  • All new content (articles, podcasts, videos, live shows, PDFs, etc.) will be exclusively posted to Lunduke.Locals.com.

  • No new Lifetime subscriptions will be offered.

  • The current (massive) discount on subscriptions will end.

If you already have a subscription over at Lunduke.Locals.com… you’re all set! You can safely remove your Substack account and you will get all new content over on Locals!

Don’t have a Locals subscription yet? Read on, my nerds!

Easy steps to make sure you don’t miss out:

  1. Create an account on Lunduke.Locals.com (if you haven’t already).

  2. If you already have a Founding Member or Lifetime Subscription via Substack:

    1. Email [email protected] and let me know. I will set your account on Locals to full access.

  3. If you are a monthly or free subscriber via Substack… pick a new subscription option:

    1. Free Lunduke.Locals.com subscription — Only get free articles, can’t post, can’t comment, no live events.

    2. Monthly Lunduke.Locals.com subscription — Full access to absolutely everything on Lunduke.Locals.com. All articles, podcasts, live events, and can make posts/comments.

    3. Yearly Lunduke.Locals.com subscription — Same as monthly… but for a full year. Discounted with 2 free months.

    4. Yearly Founding Member subscription — Same as Yearly… but also includes full access to NerdyEntertainment.Locals.com and ConservativeNerds.Locals.com.

    5. Lifetime subscription — Same as Founding Member… but for life. Pay once and never pay again.

  4. Once your Locals account is all setup… you can safely unsubscribe (or disable emails) on Substack. You’ll now be getting everything from Locals.

  5. Bonus: Grab the Locals iOS or Android app. This allows you to have full access to all content from The Lunduke Journal using the same account as on the Locals website.

Again: Until midnight the following (massive) discounts are in effect:

  • The Yearly Founding Member Subscription — Discounted to $75 for a full year. ($6.25 per month for three communities / publications? Awesome.)

  • The Lifetime Founding Member Subscription — Discounted to $120… for life. That’s insane. Never pay again and get access to every part of The Lunduke Journal forever.

Go here for exact (simple) instructions on taking advantage of the deal.

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

Japan's Square-Enix Game Developer is going to focus on Japanese Programmers, instead of having California and UK offices write code. I'm trying to figure what perspective is the best reasoning.

  • US Game Developers either write code "poorly" - or inject politics where it isn't wanted.
  • Game Publishers cannot justify Added "Translation" (Localization) Costs for Games, based on Lower Sales in the US and the UK.
  • Are False "Academic Credentials" in play? H-1B Visas in US "Cheated" for Employment? Are American Coders "evenly skilled" for Gaming, or Database Ops, or Web/Commerce, or Science/Robotics?
  • Are Japanese concerned about "Careless Use" of A.I. Code Generation (hallucinations/bugs)?
