Every "Linux Sucks" video. In order.
(You're welcome.)
September 01, 2023

The "Linux Sucks" series kicked off back in 2009, at Linux Fest Northwest.  Since then, there have been 15 shows in the series -- recorded at everything ranging from a 1,000 seat auditorium in Los Angeles... to a dark room... in a cabin... all by myself -- which have been viewed millions and millions of times.

Seriously.

It's ridiculous.

Well, with Linux Sucks 2023 fast approaching (details to be announced soon), I wanted to provide all of you with a complete list of every surviving "Linux Sucks" video.  Ever.

Here they are -- the only place, in the Universe, where they are all available to watch -- in chronological order.

Which ones are my personal favorites, you ask?  Good question, imagined Internet person!

The 2016 show was a ton of fun.  Huge live audience.  Really fun guests -- how many times does a guy get to do a show with both Richard Stallman and Fantasy / Sci-Fi author Piers Anthony?  Plus Cory Doctorow.  And the CEO of Red Hat.  Man.  That show was fun.

Then there's the 2019 show... which went horribly, terrible wrong!  Shoot.  Everything that could go wrong with that show did!  Total trainwreck disaster!  But that kinda makes it special.

The 2022 one?  Makes me laugh.

Oh, oh!  The 2017 show!  I told the organizers of the Southern California Linux Expo that this was going to be the very last Linux Sucks ever.  Told everyone that.  But.  Here's the thing... I totally lied.  lol!  Plus... this edition spends a significant amount of time looking at pictures of my bad hair decisions over the years.  Seriously.  Roughly a thousand people were trapped in an auditorium... watching me talk about the history of my hair.  It was amazing.

Fair warning: Some of these shows have naughty words in them.  I try to keep things very family friendly here at The Lunduke Journal.  But, back when I recorded some of these shows, I allowed a few naughty words to slip out.  It never gets too swear-y... but, still, worth noting.

Enjoy.

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! 🤣

Am I psycho? I just installed Slackware and I'm really enjoying it. I used the Slackware Live to boot and install from which was a breath of fresh air. Text based installer asking questions that actually matter. Then the documentation is wonderful. It treats you like you aren't stupid but also explains why you're doing whatever you're doing so you can learn. Crazy thought, <sarcasm> teach a man to fish? How absurd. </sarcasm>
Anyways, the whole thing doesn't lock me into any choices for anything I may or may not want to use. Default state is, you decide. Heck, sudo isn't even enabled by default. (Sadly, I had to remember how we used to use Linux before sudo.)
I really, really like this. So if there is some political reason I shouldn't be using this, please, just keep your mouth shut.

$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:

  1. Grab the $89 Lifetime Subscription before it ends tomorrow night.

  2. High five yourself for saving money and supporting Indie Tech Journalism.

  3. 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.

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

  2. 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.
