Crazy Tech People Who Hate Lunduke - Part I
Lunduke drives Tech Journalists to mADnEsS & destroys entire projects... with his magic words!
April 14, 2024

One of my super-powers (apparently) is writing words which burrow into the brains of many nerds... driving them slowly insane.

Tech Journalists, Software Developers, Project Managers... even your average computer nerds are susceptible to my wizardly words of wickedness.

And, because I have to see their linguistic detritus, I am now going to subject all of you to the insanity which they spew.

I present to you: "Crazy Tech People Who Hate Lunduke - Part I"

Yeah.  Part One.

Fair Warning: I've censored some of the more offensive words in the following screenshots.  But, just the same, their declarations aren't exactly clean and wholesome.

OSNews.com

We begin with Thom Holwerda, the editor of OSNews.com.  He recently posted this delightful gem over on Mastodon (a social network filled with people who are definitely very well adjusted *wink wink*).

Oh, dear.

"Hey Lunduke," I hear you asking.  "Could you provide us a single screenshot that gives us a glimpse into the minds of the average Tech Journalist?"

Ta-da.

Curious why certain "Tech News" sites refuse to cover Lunduke Journal articles (no matter how massive the news)?  I think this helps to explain it.  This is how they see people.

Also... nEaT caPITaLizATioN, DudE!

GLIMPSE (a GIMP fork)

The creator of GLIMPSE (a fork of GIMP) recently published this regarding my coverage of Mozilla and Firefox.

I am so powerful.

I'm going to go ahead and quote that.  Because it's awesome.

"If you're angry at Mozilla because Bryan Lunduke said mean things about them, then as someone whose previous project was torn apart after one of his videos called it a "woke fork", I kindly invite you to go [CENSORED] yourself."

Apparently I, Bryan Lunduke, single handedly "tore apart" an entire project (the GLIMPSE project, I assume) by simply mentioning it.

I'm going to be honest with you... I had completely forgotten that project existed.  But, according to the project founder, I "tore it apart" with my word magic.

Not gonna lie.  Feeling pretty powerful right now.

Wonder which project I should mention next...

elementary OS

Here is a -- definitely very sane and reasonable -- post from the founder (and currently sole employee) of elementary OS (a fork of Ubuntu).  That post is entitled "Assault, death, transphobia, etc".

Wait.  What did I do?

I'm not 100% sure... but I think he's saying I... took out a hit on him?  Like... in a mafia movie?  By... posting an article about computers?  And if someone else shares the link to that article... that person is now part of... that hit?  Or something?

Or maybe my words are like that VHS tape in The Ring?  You know... you read a few of my words then a creeply lady starts crawling around your laptop before you die?

Huh!

Well.  Either way.  You heard it here first, folks.  Sharing links to my words is, like, literally murder.  The future is weird!

Rent free, baby!

What have we learned today?

  • My words drive Tech Journalists to mADnEsS.
  • I can "tear apart" open source projects with two words.
  • If you share a link to my words, you are comitting murder.

One thing is also clear: They can't stop talking about me... my wizard words compel them.

In fact, it's gotten to the point where people are issuing "Stop reposting Bryan Lunduke Challenges".

Good luck, buddy.

If past performance is any indication of future performance... that challenge will end poorly.  Especially after I write up some more of my Black Magic Words of Wonder.

Whew!

Wonder what we'll learn in Part II?

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! 🤣

"Andreas Kling creator of Serenity OS & Ladybird Web Browser" - Lunduke’s Big Tech Show - September 13th, 2023 - Ep 044

Might be a delay in posting the video for the latest show, "Bazaar Linux App Store Rejects All Non-Gay Themes", as Locals is erroring out when uploading videos.

Was working well earlier today, so probably just a hiccup. Video is everywhere else already and will be on Locals as soon as it's working again.

A Chinese human trafficker arrested in Thailand lured men to Thailand for ... certain types of erotic adventures. She also lured women for exciting travel and work opportunities. You can guess how her criminal enterprise worked.

On the left is her mug shot. On the right is how she appeared online in her videos. She created and played a pretty, fun, and carefree character to attract victims and customers while dodging law enforcement.

The lesson here is simple. If you don't meet someone in person, or see them unfiltered in someone else's video, then you have no idea what they actually look like.

This isn't just catfishing. This is using sexual attraction and jealousy to fool people into making poor decisions or getting into dangerous situations.

If you don't know them, don't trust them.

$89 Lifetime Lunduke Journal Subscriptions Through Monday, Dec 1st

We saw massive growth over the last several months — breaking 12 Million views in October. And November (which ends tomorrow, final numbers to be be published on Monday) has already blown all records out of the water. By a mile.

To celebrate truly independent Tech Journalism reaching more people than ever before, The Lunduke Journal is offering the craziest discount imaginable.

Through Monday, December 1st: New Lunduke Journal Lifetime Subscriptions (regularly $300) are now only:

  • $89 (when purchased with Bitcoin) or

  • $99 (when purchased via Substack or Locals)

https://lunduke.substack.com/p/89-lifetime-lunduke-journal-subscriptions

$89 Lifetime Sub extended through Tuesday. Final reminder.

Super quick updates from The Desk of Lunduke:

  • Everyone who snagged a Lifetime Lunduke Journal subscription over the weekend (and up until just a few moments ago on Monday), should all be properly setup — and should have received a confirmation email. If not, or if you have questions, just email me and I’ll take care of you.

  • The $89 Lifetime Sub deal has been extended by just one day (through December 2nd). I mentioned the discount in a show published just a few hours ago… and it seemed mean to have the deal expire before most people even got a chance to watch that show. I figure one day is plenty of extra time.

  • There won’t be any further reminders of that deal. If you want it, snag it. Either way prices go back to normal promptly at midnight as it becomes Wednesday on the East Coast of the USA.

A huge thank you to everyone who picked up a subscription (both now and in the past). Because of you, the future of The Lunduke Journal is going to be around for a very, very long time to come.

We now return to your regularly scheduled programming.

$89 Lifetime Subs Through Monday, Second Lifetime Wall

Holy tidal wave of subscriptions, Batman! I was not fully prepared for the flood of people taking advantage of the $89 Lifetime Sub deal!

But, hey! That’s a good thing! Welcome, new Lunduke Journal subscribers!

A few quick reminders and bits of info on this glorious Sunday:

  • The $89 Lifetime Subscription deal is good through Monday, Dec 1st. That’s tomorrow. All prices go back to normal on Tuesday.

  • For everyone who has already snagged the $89 Lifetime Sub this weekend, you will be receiving a confirmation email by sometime on Monday.

  • For every Lifetime Subscriber who wants to be added to the “Lifetime Wall” at the end of the shows (but isn’t already), toss me an email and let me know how you want your name to be displayed. I’m adding a second wall which will debut in tomorrow’s show (ran out of space on the first wall).

  • Same goes for Lifetime Subscribers who want the Lunduke Journal X account to follow your X account. Email me. Let me know what your X handle is. I’ll take it from there.

  • For the new subscribers: You can find links and details on the various perks (regardless of where you subscribe from) right here.

Monday should be fun. We’ve already got quite a few stories to cover for this week… and it’s not even Monday yet!

I took off a couple days, last week, to celebrate Thanksgiving. I figured, “There won’t be too many new stories breaking during Thanksgiving!” Boy, was I wrong!

See all of you on Monday!

Happy Thanksgiving, you amazing nerds!

Just a quick note to let everyone know that I’ll be taking off the next few days to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family. You may still find me posting a few tidbits over on X, in between food comas, but no new shows until Sunday.

To all of you amazing nerds who make The Lunduke Journal possible: Thank you.

To say I am grateful for your support, over the last several years, would be the understatement of the century.

Over the last few months, the audience size of The Lunduke Journal has absolutely exploded. Thanks, in large part, to all of you. You not only funded the coverage of these “Free from Big-Tech influence” stories… you helped spread them as well. Far and wide.

Because of you, stories are being told which would otherwise fly under the radar, hidden by the mainstream Tech Press.

You are, in a word, awesome. And I am thankful, every day, for the trust and support you have shown to The Lunduke Journal.

To all of my fellow Americans, Happy Thanksgiving. May your hearts and your stomaches be full.

To all of my non-American friends, I wish the same. Because there’s never a bad time to have a ridiculously big meal.

-Lunduke

Oh, lest I forget: For those who don’t have a Lunduke Journal subscription yet, there’s a Black Friday sale. Half off. Good stuff. For those of you who have already picked up your subscription, recently or years in the past, you have my thanks.
