A bunch of reminders and tips for all you amazing Lunduke Journal subscribers
Here are a bunch of tips, links, and answers to Frequently Asked Questions. Because answering them all at once is easier. š¤£
Q: Is there an RSS feed for the podcasts or articles
A: No. Not currently. I am working on a solution for this but, in the meantime, the best way to enjoy the latest episodes is either via the Locals app (there is a "Content" button at the bottom) or the Locals website at the following links:
Again, there will be an RSS feed soon (no ETA, but I'm working on it). But the recommended way to get my shows is via the Locals app or website.
Q: I have both a Locals and Substack subscription. What do I do?
A: If you have both a Locals and Substack subscription, be sure to unsubscribe over on Substack so you don't get double-charged.
If you forget to do that and get double charged, I can totally get you a refund. But it's a royal pain the butt and I end up losing money in the process. So. You know. Don't forget. š
Q: I sent you an email! Did you get it?
A: Probably! Maybe! The truth is I am way behind in correspondence. As of this exact moment there are 60,810 unread emails in my Inbox. By the end of the day that number will likely be much larger. Seriously. It's bonkers. I almost need an assistant just for email. So don't take it personally if it takes me forever to respond. Likewise, if you are expecting a response from me... be patient. I'll do my best. š
Q: Is the "Founding Member" subscription still a thing?
A: Yes! For sure! If you have an existing annual Founding Member subscription (or a Lifetime Subscription) you can get full access to all three of the Locals communities I run (Lunduke, NerdyEntertainment, & ConservativeNerds).
If you are looking to get one of those subscriptions, sit tight. I'll be updating the instructions and details for those this coming Friday.
Q: I remember you did a specific video many years ago. Where is that?
A: Some of the "Lunduke Video Archive of Awesomeness" has been ported over here to Locals (again, you can find that in the Content section). But there are still many videos (often dating back a decade or more) that haven't been posted to Locals yet. I do those in bits and pieces. But if you have a specific request, post it here and I'll do my best to prioritize those. (There are, literally, thousands of hours of videos and podcasts... so it is a hefty task.)
Q: When does Linux Sucks 2023 come out?
A: It's going to be a live (in person) show. I expect to be able to announce date and location very soon. It will also be live-streamed here on Locals... and then available for on-demand watching on Locals (just as we did with the recent "macOS Sucks" ). There are also a few live-stream, big events (like the "Sucks" shows) coming up. Because those are just plain fun to do.
Q: Will you post your shows to YouTube / Odysee / etc / etc?
A: Not likely. I may occasionally post a video to YouTube (mostly to remind YouTube users to come on over to Locals) and Rumble. But that's about it. I like it here on Locals. This is the one-stop-shop for everything I do.
Q: There is an issue with my Founding Member or Lifetime subscription, who do I contact?
A: As behind as I am on email... contacting me ([email protected]) is the easiest. Or message me here on Lunduke.Locals.com. The way we administer the Founding or Lifetime subs means that the Locals support team really can't help... they'll forward your request on to me anyway. š¤£ But if you have a standard Monthly or Yearly Locals subscription, you can contact Locals support crew directly.
Q: There's a bug in Locals! Something isn't displaying correctly! Podcasts won't load! Notifications went crazy! Who do I contact?
A: If you encounter a bug in Locals, I recommend making a post here on Lunduke.Locals.com. That way we can see if it's impacting anyone else, find repro steps, and then I can provide the Locals crew with enough details that they can better be set to fix the problem. I've found that, if we do that, they tend to have fixes in place in a matter of days (often hours). The Locals team is pretty fantastic like that.
Q: Where is the telnet BBS?!
A: The House of Lunduke BBS is currently off-line. It's been off-line for a while. Which makes me sad. The good news is that it will be returning. Which makes me happy. Because I miss getting my daily dose of TradeWars and LORD. š (No ETA on that. The BBS is a lower priority than a few other short-term projects... but it'll happen.)
