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! 🤣

Last week at The Lunduke Journal (Sep 1 - Sep 14, 2024)
Internet Archive loses in court! The Open Source Community Sucks! Mozilla all-in on A.I.!

What a crazy few weeks in the Lunduke household!  Moved into a new house.  Had two birthday.  Oh.  And a hurricane.  Can't forget the friggin' hurricane.

But that didn't stop the crazy Tech news from continuing to roll in!  Plus we had a healthy dose of fun looks at rather quirky software.  Which is always a good thing.
