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.

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! 🤣

Well that settles it. I should have been a radiologist.

That was the most boring WWDC keynote I’ve ever seen.
Repromising the things they sold me for my iPhone 2 years ago and never delivered.
I’m an Apple fan, I have LOTS of Apple products. Other than the AirPods Max, every Apple product I own will be replaced by another one someday.
I can only hope they told the truth that they were fixing bugs and focusing on performance improvements instead of lots of new features for MacOS.
I like AI - and all their AI features except the reperspective on the photo were late, meh or invented by Google.
I’ll use AI in all my Apple products, like I already am…from OpenAI, Anthropic, Grok and Gemini.
Oh, voice short cuts also looked cool.
Apple must not be allowing their employees the use of AI software development
“When are you going to add a TempleOS Lifetime Wall??!”
I’ve lost track of the number of times I’ve received that request over the last few weeks. Well. What the heck! Why not?
There are now three Lunduke Journal Lifetime Subscriber Walls (displayed both on Lunduke.com and the end of all new shows) with space available:
Macintosh System 1
Windows 2000
TempleOS

A few quick notes:
The Windows 2000 Wall, which was introduced only 2 days ago, is already about half way full. At the current rate, that one will likely be full by the end of the week. Still plenty of space on the Mac System 1 Wall.
The discount on Lifetime Subscriptions ($125… discounted from the normal $300) runs through the end of June.
One Lifetime Subscription = Name Listed on One Wall. These Walls are crazy popular and fill up super fast, so I have to put that limit in place.
Want your name on more than one Lifetime Wall? Grab a second Lifetime Subscription (use the discounted rate) and you can have your name added to one of the Walls with space still available.
Massive high five to everyone who has supported The Lunduke Journal and made these retro-computer Lifetime Walls so much fun to do!

Woah! The 8th Lifetime Subscriber Wall of The Lunduke Journal (aka “The Windows 1.0 Wall”) is already full! After only one week! That’s nuts!
So I’m opening up two new, retro computer walls!
Wall 9 - “The Macintosh System 1 Wall”
Wall 10 - “The Windows 2000 Wall”

Show your support for The Lunduke Journal, and be immortalized in a retro computer screenshot. Win-win!
If the past is any indicator, these will fill up crazy fast. First come, first served.
Plus: For the entire month of June, Lifetime Subscriptions are discounted down to $125 (regularly $300).
Scroll down and grab a new Lifetime Subscription (at that bonkers discount).
Choose which of the two new Walls you’d like to be on (Mac System 1 or Windows 2000). Totally optional.
