Let the great Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V commence!

 

THUNDERDOME.

 

That's some Big Data Edge Computing Artificial Intelligence (tm) right there!

 

This is, as far as I can tell, the only thing that Kubernetes does -- turns servers off and on in the most convoluted way possible.

 

Lol.  Wait.  I feel like I have a comic strip about this... Found it!

 

Pole Positition is rad.

 

This needs to be posted regularly.  As a reminder.  John Connor is VERY disappointed in y'all.

 

Not gonna lie.  I've done this.  Repeatedly.  Don't judge me.

 

Is it weird that I kinda want this for a modern computer monitor?  Somehow it makes the Windows login screen seem so much cooler.

 

That's the one think that'll probably save us from Skynet: The darn AI will probably run out of memory because of all the shoddy code.

 

I am including this here for one simple reason: I had to write some regular expressions today.  And I, literally, had to look up how to do everything.  Again.  For the 50th time.

 

Santa knows what's what.  I bet there's some seriously tight VBA and Pivot Tables in Santa's spreadsheets.

 

This one isn't about computers at all.  I just felt like felt like you could use a little pick-me-up.

 

It's funny because AI is copying the works of others and not providing anything new for our culture.

 

I don't see how this wouldn't work.  Infinite energy.  Forever.  Thank you, Rust programmers!

 

This Albanian Virus is significantly less intrusive than McAfee Antivirus.  Which, as it happens, fails to detect the Albanian Virus.

 

Every time somebody tells me about a new versioin of Java being released, I say to them "I thought Java 6 was the last one."  Just kidding.  Nobody has ever told me about a new version of Java being released.

"Linux is NOT a Social Warrior Project," Torvalds Says Incorrectly

A strange statement, considering Linus, himself, regularly uses the Linux Kernel (as a weapon) to promote Leftist, Social Warrior political activism.

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! 🤣

It has happened. Claude's latest model won't be subscription based. Instead, it will be pay per token.

This was inevitable, of course, and it's the first step toward a future where prices reflect actual costs. How will this affect usage by developers and corporations? We shall see.

Oregon Trail, Keen, & Leisure Suit Larry Lifetime Walls

Holy frijoles! There are now 20 (twenty!) Lifetime Subscriber Walls, filled with the names of roughly one bazillion Lunduke Journal supporters.

Just amazing.

Two super quick updates:

  1. The “Desqview/X”, “NeXTSetp”, & “TRS-80 Model 100” Walls are now full! (Check them out on Lunduke.com and at the end of new shows.)

  2. There are 3 new Walls available to put your John Hancock on… and, just for kicks, these ones aren’t from Classic Operating Systems… they’re Classic Games:

    1. Oregon Trail

    2. Commander Keen 4

    3. Leisure Suit Larry

 

I don’t expect space on these Walls to last long. First come first served.

A huge thank you to all of The Lunduke Journal subscribers. Your support is deeply appreciated. You make this possible.

TRS-80 Model 100 joins The Lunduke Journal Lifetime Wall party!

Buckle up, Buttercup. Because The Lunduke Journal is about to blow your mind.

  1. The “BeOS” Wall Lifetime Subscriber Wall is now full (see all of them on Lunduke.com)!

  2. We’ve added a new “TRS-80 Model 100” Wall (because we can)! That’s the 19th Lifetime Subscriber Wall! 19!

  3. The discounted Lifetime Lunduke Journal Subscriptions are still available through to the end of this month (July).

Which means there are, as of this exact moment, 4 Walls with space available (see Lunduke.com for the full list of Walls). But these fill up wicked fast.

  1. Emacs (only a few spots left)

  2. Desqview/X (a little less than 2/3rd’s full)

  3. NeXTStep (still plenty of space)

  4. TRS-80 Model 100 (just launched)

 

Nice, right?

Worth noting: The “TRS-80 Model 100” has very limited screen resolution (240 x 64), which means only a small number of names can fit on that wall. If you want on it, I’d let me know right away.

Grab a discounted Lifetime Subscription (if you don’t already have one), then let me know (email “bryan at lunduke.com”) which Wall you’d like to see your name on.

Huge high five to everyone who has already added their name to a Wall. At the current rate, we’ll have over 20 retro computer themed walls, filled with all of your names, by the end of the month.

And, doggone it, that’s amazing.

Vim beats Emacs!

Well, we’ve done it.

We’ve answered the eternal question: “Which Lunduke Journal Lifetime Subscriber Wall would fill with names quicker? Emacs or Vim?”

The answer, it turns out, is “Vim”. And it takes just 8 days.

 

A hearty “Thank You” to everyone who supports The Lunduke Journal by getting Lifetime Subscriptions (massively discounted throughout July) and getting on these walls! You make all of this possible!

Now. How long will it take for Emacs to fill up (matching the same number of names as the Vim Wall)?

Well, right now the Emacs Wall is a hair over 2/3rds of the way full. So we’ll find out!

Welcome NeXTStep Wall!

With the closing of the “Vim” Wall (and the BeOS Wall only having the space for 1 name left), now seemed like a good time to add a new retro computer wall: The NeXTStep 1.0 Wall.

Right now, there are 4 Walls available to add your name to (*cough* massive discount *cough*).

  • NeXTStep (just opened)

  • Emacs (about 2/3rds full)

  • BeOS R5 (1 spot left)

  • Desqview/X (1/2 full)

 

Once again, huge thanks to everyone who supports The Lunduke Journal!
