Lunduke Journal June roundup (it was awesome)
June 30, 2023

Hello, you awesome nerds!

It’s been a fun month here at The Lunduke Journal of Technology! Here’s a quick run-down of some of my favorite things to happen during June:

Plus, of course, a pile of nerdy articles, a bunch of podcasts, and a handful of classic videos. Not to mention all of us hanging out and talking about nerdy stuff every day. It was pretty friggin’ sweet.

And love that we’re getting back into big, live-streamed shows (starting with macOS Sucks)! Great to be doing that again!

Thanks for helping to make June an absolute nerdy blast, my dudes and dudettes!

Really, really looking forward to July.

The Lunduke Journal of Tech content archive.

Reminder: All supporters have full access to all of the exclusives in a nice, sortable, searchable index.

You can access it either via the website at Lunduke.Locals.com/content or via the Content tab in the iOS/Android Locals app.

Make sure you have a subscription.

These are the regular prices for subscriptions to all three sites in The Lunduke Journal Family (Journal of Technology, Nerdy Entertainment and Retro Delights, and Conservative Nerdiness).

Pick whatever works best for you.

  • Monthly Subscription - $5

  • Yearly Subscription - $45 ($3.75 / month)

Lunduke Funding Member Pass (all 3 sites together):

  • Yearly - $100 ($2.77 / month / site)

As a wise man once said, “If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up. It is so choice.” Pretty sure he was talking about the Founding Member thing.

How to get the Founding Member Pass:

  1. Get a free subscription at Lunduke.Locals.com.

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

  3. Select “Annual” and enter “100” in the “Amount to give per year” field.

  4. Then, if you want full access on the Nerdy Entertainment and Nerdy Politics sites, become Free members on each… and let Lunduke know by either:

    1. Sending Lunduke a private message on Lunduke.Locals.com or

    2. Emailing Lunduke at [email protected]

  5. Lunduke will then set up your accounts and let you know (usually only takes a few hours).

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! 🤣

Um... Does this bother anybody else?

Lunduke's Lifetime Subscriber Wall 3 is almost full!

Holy moly.

This afternoon I sat down to update the 3rd Lunduke Journal Lifetime Subscriber wall — adding in all of you who sent in requests over the last week or so.

And, boy howdy, were there a lot of you! So many, in fact, that the 3rd Lifetime Wall only has room for around 6 or 7 more names (depending on the name lengths)! That’s crazy!

If you want to make it onto “The Lunduke Journal Lifetime Subscriber” Wall number 3… send me an email (bryan at lunduke.com) with the way you would like your name to be displayed.

Or, if you’re not already a Lifetime Subscriber, remedy that for $89. (Which, you know, is a pretty gosh darned good value.) … Then send me that email requesting to be added to the wall.

Once Wall 3 is full, we’ll start in on Wall number 4 (that’s nuts). At the current rate, I expect Wall 4 to debut this week.

And, as always, thank you for your support. Whatever kind of subscription you have, it is deeply appreciated. Monthly, Yearly, or Lifetime. All are amazing. You make The Lunduke Journal possible.

You rule.

Lunduke Out Sick Tomorrow

I’ve got the flu (or something else yucky) and need to take the day off tomorrow.

But I don’t really have a normal “boss” to email. Heck, all of you are sort of like my collective boss.

So I’m emailing you:

Boss, *cough cough* Lunduke is out sick tomorrow.

Which means no new shows on Wednesday. Hoping to rest up and be back with new shows on Thursday.

If you’ve missed any shows over the last few weeks, now’s a good chance to catch up.

And feel free to grab one of those fancy-shmancy $89 Lifetime Subscriptions while you’re at it. That won’t make my flu go away any faster… but it definitely won’t hurt.

Unrelated note: Buying stock in Nyquil might not be a bad idea. I think I’m about to increase their profits.

A few super-quick Lunduke Journal housekeeping updates:

  • The 2026 MP4 Downloads page is up and going! If you are a subscriber (of any kind) you can find details on how to gain access on the Subscriber Perks Page.

  • The popular $89 Lifetime Subscription deal is back through the end of January. Standard Monthly & Yearly subscriptions are also discounted (50% off). Grab ‘em while they’re hot!

That is all. Back to your regularly scheduled nerdiness.
