3 Free Lunduke Journal Subs with Every Paid Sub?!
Has Lunduke gone... crrrrrrrraaaaaaazzzzzyyyyy?!
October 09, 2025

Now, through end of the day Friday (October 10th), pick up a Lunduke Journal subscription… get 3 for free. That you can give away.

Seriously. Not joking.

This applies to every Lifetime Subscription (on any platform) or Yearly Subscription (on Substack). Buy one. Get 3 free to give as gifts.

Pick one of these options:

  • Buy a Lifetime Subscription at the regular price… and get 3 more free Lifetime Subscriptions which you can gift to anyone you want (or have Lunduke pick recipients for you)!

Or…

All you need to do is follow those links above to grab your Annual or Lifetime Subscription — by Friday, October 10th — then email [bryan at lunduke.com] and include who you would like to gift the complimentary subscription to! Easy, peasy!

You — and everyone you gift a subscription to — can then enjoy all of the perks of being a Lunduke Journal subscriber. Pretty nifty.

FAQ:

Q: Three free gift subscriptions? Are you serious?!

A: Absolutely. Originally, this was going to be a super-short, 2 hour deal — only available during a livestream earlier today. Then the Rumble servers started exploding, cutting that livestream short. So I decided “what the heck, I’ll just extend this insane offer until tomorrow!” Because I’m the boss, and I can make those sorts of reckless decisions.

Q: I already picked up a subscription during the “Buy One, Give One”, can I get all 3 of the free gift subscriptions too?

A: Why not! Anyone who picked up a Yearly or Lifetime Subscription since October 6th can get all 3 free subscriptions to give to whomever you like!

Q: Can I give a complimentary Annual Subscription on a platform other than Substack?

A: Every platform has different administrative features. Substack makes it easy for us to provide a free, one-year subscription. Other platforms lack that necessary functionality. That said, you can gift a Lifetime Subscription on both Locals & Substack!

Q: What if I don’t have anyone specific in mind for the complimentary second subscription?

A: No problem! We have a list of people who are down on their luck (laid off, etc.) and could use a free subscription!

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!
