Fedora Linux Weaponizes Code of Conduct Against Jews
Call a Jew a "Nazi"? Fedora Linux (and Red Hat) say that's ok. Suggest that someone is being "antisemitic"? That's a "Code of Conduct Violation".

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! 🤣

Well this is a first.
Keychron Q16 HE 8K: World’s First Fully Ceramic Keyboard
"Milky-smooth, cool to the touch, incredibly thocky. 100% ceramic | Magnetic switches | TMR sensors | 8K polling rate | Customizable"
I like the idea, but I would want to use one before buying one. Also, I already own enough keyboards.

I've been reading Tux Machines for almost 20 years. I deleted the feed this morning.
I've been aware of Roy's beef with Bryan for a while, although despite the title of today's article, he did still link here occasionally; it's crossposted from “Techrights” (previously “Boycott Novell”) so presumably he's talking about that. His political leanings are usually fairly easy to ignore on Tux Machines - and I've a lot of sympathy for what he and his wife have been through at the hands of genuine bad actors - but following the links posted today led me to an article promoting the conspiracy theory that Charlie Kirk's killer was MAGA.
That's it. I'm done.
It all seems to have started years ago with the point of Linux Sucks flying right over his head. (He calls Bryan “Microsoft Lunduke”. 🙄) But once he gets a bee in his bonnet, there's no shifting it.

Final Reminder: Lifetime Price Increase in 24 hours
This is just a super quick reminder (so no body misses out):
This Friday (September 19th), the price of a new Lifetime Subscription to The Lunduke Journal will be increasing from $200 to $300.
Which means: If you want to pick up a new Lifetime Subscription for the lower price, simply grab one (via Locals, Substack, or Bitcoin) by Thursday night (Sep 18th). That’s roughly 24 hours from the moment I am writing these words.
Obviously, once you have a Lifetime Subscription you’re set. You know. For life.
I wanted to give all of you some notice so you could grab one at the lower rate.
Also worth noting: The Lunduke Journal has phased out sales and discount promotions. The current price of a subscription is the best price.
This will be the final reminder before the change goes into effect.

Also, quick reminder that the price of new Lifetime Subscription is going up this Friday. If you want one at the lower price, now’s your moment. We’ve also added some new perks for subscribers worth checking out.
See you nerd tomorrow!

New Lunduke Journal Sub Perks, Lifetime Price Increase Next Week
A quick update: There are some new perks for Lunduke Journal subscribers, and an upcoming price increase for new Lifetime Subscriptions (if you want one of those at the lower price, you have a couple days).
All the details below.
Lifetime Subscription Price Increase
This coming Friday (September 19th), the price of a new Lifetime Subscription to The Lunduke Journal will be increasing from $200 to $300. I wanted to give all of you a few days notice so you could grab one at the lower rate.
If you want to pick up a Lifetime Subscription for the lower price, simply grab one (via Locals, Substack, or Bitcoin) by Thursday night (Sep 18th).
The prices for new Yearly and Monthly subscriptions will remain the same. No changes.
Reminder: The Lunduke Journal has phased out sales and discount promotions. The current price of a subscription is the best price.
New Perks for Lunduke Journal Subscribers
I am working on adding a few new perks for Lunduke Journal subscribers — a way of saying “Thank You” for making this work possible (while still keeping all of the articles and shows free for the world).
Here are the perks as of today.
Perks for all Subscribers (Monthly, Yearly, and Lifetime):
Access to the 12 DRM-free, PDF eBooks.
Access to the “Linux Tycoon” video games (for Linux, DOS, & Windows).
Access to the exclusive Lunduke Journal Forum.
Note: The eBooks & Games are currently only available on Locals & Substack (due to platform features). Those perks will also become available to subscribers on X, YouTube, & Patreon next week. Stay tuned for access details.
Additional (Optional) Perks only for Lifetime Subscribers:
The Lunduke Journal will follow your account on X.
Your name (real, or internet handle) listed in a special thanks slide at the end of new Lunduke Journal videos.
Both of these perks are 100% optional.
If you are a Lifetime Subscriber, and would like to take advantage of either (or both), simply email “bryan at lunduke.com” with the subject line “Lifetime Perk” (that part is important, I get so many emails this will help me see yours) and include a link to your X profile and/or the way you want your name to appear at the end of videos.
One of the nice parts of having Lunduke Journal follow your X account… is it will make it far easier (and more likely) for me to see your comments.
Thank You
I am working to expand all of the regular perks (books, etc.) to subscribers across all platforms (which was a little tricky, considering the differences in each platform, but I managed to figure out how to do it) — while adding a few new ones as well.
Nothing crazy, just a way of saying “Thank You”.
Seriously.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your support. The Lunduke Journal is only possible thanks to each and every one of you.
