Aaaaand... now I'm overwhelmed by the need to run Windows 95 on a big screen TV.

elementary OS 8 is the DEI Linux Distro
"Take that fascists!" says elementary OS founder, Daniel Fore.
Will a pro-DEI & pro-Woke marketing strategy prove successful in attracting new users to a small, commercial Linux distribution? In the words of a wise man, "It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for 'em."

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! 🤣

Happy Thanksgiving, Nerds!
For those of you who celebrate, hope you all have a fantastically delicious day!
The list of things I am thankful for would be ridiculously long. But, at the core of it all, my wife and kids, my G-d, and all of you for making my job (which is too much fun) possible.
Right now the turkey (Cajun spiced, naturally) is in the oven. Pies are ready (pumpkin and apple). “Dinner” currently set for around 2:30 or so.
I love food. 😎
Last week at The Lunduke Journal (Nov 10 - Nov 23, 2024)
Mozilla Nearing EOL, Linux CoC Insanity, Red Hat Ditching Linux for AI, & … Pokémon Go?
What in the heckatarnations is going on in the computer world?
I'd love to point to one particular story and say, "If you click on just one of these links... this is the link you need to click on." But... dang, man. All of these stories are absolutely insane.
Not to mention the fact that there are at least four stories -- from just the ones below -- where The Lunduke Journal can confidently say "Told ya so!" to all of the other Tech Journalists out there.
Which. Not gonna lie. Feels pretty darn good.
