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.

"No one is seriously considering" Rust Clones says Fedora Developer

"Deliberate breakages and incoherent incompatibilities make [Rust CoreUtils Clones] a non-starter... We're probably not ever going to switch to it in Fedora."

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! 🤣

The unemployment will be given a nice 6 week abatement!

I start a 6 week assessment engagement starting November 16th. 5 months - second longest time of unemployment.

The field seemed dead from mid July until a couple weeks ago. I have several irons in the fire at the moment.

Still, it was a just-in-time opportunity as companies close down hiring during the holidays and typically through January.

Did AI take away all the jobs? I can't say that. There are ebs and flows I've experienced before and this didn't feel different.

Were a LOT of the job opportunities about AI? Yes. I would have been more worried had I not been investing in developing AI skills the past 3 years.

Did the job I land involve AI? No. Will I use AI? To prep before-hand? Absolutely. I'm thrilled at what I'm putting together so that I can show up day one and rock this assignment.

I don't think the client is using AI so I don't think I'll be allowed to. Six weeks - that's fine with me.

Anthropic warns that it's very close to RSI capability, aka self-building AI | TechCrunch

RSI is the point at which AI grows so good at training itself that it spawns a dramatic acceleration of AI capabilities. To the AI doomers, RSI represents the cataclysm from which there is no return.

Finance called IT because a customer owed us $240,000 and nobody could find them.

Customer name: TEST CUSTOMER DO NOT USE.

I recognized it immediately.

I created that account two years ago to test our billing software.

It had a fake address.

A fake phone number.

The contact email was [email protected].

Apparently Sales found the account last quarter and used it to demonstrate our new quoting system.

Someone accidentally converted the demonstration quote into a real order.

That triggered an invoice.

The invoice went unpaid.

Our collections software sent seven payment reminders to [email protected].

Nobody responded.

Finance escalated the account to a debt collection agency.

The agency spent three weeks trying to locate TEST CUSTOMER DO NOT USE.

They reported the company had no registered address, no employees, and no known assets.

Finance classified the account as high-risk.

Yesterday Legal asked me for the customer's original contract.

I explained...

3 Days Left to get your name into LCOS 1.0’s About Window!

Holy imminent operating system release, Batman!

Three things worth knowing:

Saturday, October 31st is the last day to get your name into the LCOS About Window by picking up a Lifetime Lunduke Journal Subscription.
Saturday, October 31st is also the last day when Lifetime Subscriptions are massively discounted. (Crazy, how those two dates line up! What a coincidence!)
Sunday, November 1st is the official release date for LCOS 1.0!

Want your name in the About window for the Lunduke Computer Operating System 1.0? You’ve got about 3 days left to make it happen!

Here’s what to do:

Go to this page and pick up a Lifetime Subscription (aka “One Time Contribution with Lots of Perks”).
Within a few hours, you’ll receive a confirmation email from yours truly with all the details.
Reply to that email with how you want your name displayed in the LCOS 1.0 About Window (nick name, first name, or full name are all aok).

Just be sure complete step 3 before midnight (Central Time) on Saturday, October 31st so it definitely makes it onto the final LCOS 1.0 build! My advice? Do this by Friday, October 30th so there’s no chance you miss it!

Huge thank you to everyone who has been supporting The Lunduke Journal and LCOS! You make all of this possible!

LCOS 1.0 Ships on November 1st!

A release date has officially been selected!

The Lunduke Computer Operating System (LCOS) 1.0 will ship on November 1st… just two weeks from now!

A few quick tidbits worth mentioning:

If you would like to help test the final Beta releases on your own hardware, grab the latest ISO from Lunduke.com. Report any issues on GitHub, the Lunduke Forum, or via X direct message.
Want to do even more to help out? Grab a “pay what you want” Lifetime Subscription and get your name in the “About This Computer” window inside LCOS 1.0! These funds go directly towards hardware testing and other expenses.

Worth repeating: If you want your name in the LCOS About Window (see the screenshot below), you only have through October 31st to grab a Lifetime Subscription to The Lunduke Journal and make that happen.

Huge thank you to everyone who has contributed with both hardware testing and financial support. We’ve had absolutely tremendous momentum over the last few months, and that wouldn’t have been possible without all of you.

LCOS 0.9.3 has Landed! Plus: How to Help.

The Lunduke Computer Operating System (LCOS) is flying towards the official, 1.0 release — with version 0.9.3 now available for testing!

Between now and 1.0, LCOS is laser focused on a) fixing bugs and b) making sure it runs (and runs well) on as much hardware as possible.

Right now, LCOS needs your help. Here’s how:

Test the latest LCOS release on your hardware. Hit any snags? Report them on GitHub, the Lunduke Forum, or via DM on X.
Donate to LCOS (and The Lunduke Journal), so that we can expand our hardware testing lab (among other expenses).

If you haven’t already, watch the LCOS Roadmap video, to get an idea for where we’re heading (in 1.0 and beyond).

Then check out this page, for details on how to support LCOS & The Lunduke Journal (and get your name on the LCOS 1.0 About window in the process).

A huge thank you to everyone who has already contributed (in both ways)! With your help, we are making LCOS into the best gosh darned system in all the land.
