Yes. Pokemon Go has ties to the CIA and other intelligence agencies. The facts of this were well documented roughly 8 years ago. The Register (one of the more prominent Tech News outlets) is seeking to discredit that story... many years later. Why?

Warning: This show is extremely political. It has to be. There simply is no way to discuss the topic without being political. Just the same, the core of the topic is regarding the usability of digital, online publishing and messaging platforms -- a topic near and dear to the heart of those of us who have lived through the ages of the BBS, Usenet, Geocities, and the like.

WARNING: This is going to get very political. But it needs to. There's simply no other way to talk about this critical topic which is directly impacting Free and Open Source Software in a real, practical way.

Secret meetings. No transparency. Total chaos at the GNOME Foundation as they remove Sonny Piers, one of their Board Members, without telling anyone.

Jay Miller, creator of the "Black Python Devs" organization, sits down with Lunduke after announcing a partnership with the GNOME Foundation.

What are the goals of "Black Python Devs"? What is the nature of the GNOME Foundation partnership? What would they think of a "White Python Devs" organization? Many, many questions.

While Lunduke & Miller clearly disagree on many points -- the conversation is friendly, frank, and civil. Two men, having a reasonable discussion. Even as the disagreements mount.

Modern computing? Bah! Bah, I say! Let's toss aside our fancy-shmancy Linux, Windows, & Mac machines and focus on the king of Operating Systems: DOS!

All the fun happens at https://lunduke.locals.com/

Serious question. Is it Windows? iOS? Ubuntu Linux? Which system is the least / most secure? And, while we're at it, are computers more or less secure now than before? Let's look at hard stats (on CVEs) and find out.

Two amazing, nerdy writers join me today! Paul Lefebvre (GoTo10Retro.com) and our own Bradford White (AbortRetry.Fail).

We talk about retro computing & computer history. And why we are so passionate about writing about it.

Exclusive leaks from Red Hat, IBM, and Microsoft. Deep, investigative journalism -- including coverage of Mozilla, The Linux Foundation, Wikipedia, and more.

News that has a massive impact on the entire Tech Industry -- topics (and companies) that no other publication has been able to cover. Plus fun shows, comics, and other nerdy entertainment.

What would a world without The Lunduke Journal look like? I shudder to think.

What The Lunduke Journal does is only possible because we are 100% free from the influence of Big Tech and advertisers -- because of subscribers like...

This Week's Special Guests: Derek Taylor (DistroTube), & Brodie Robertson

Three, highly opinionated Linux nerds. Covering a small mountain of topics in one hour: Xorg, Wayland, Gentoo, Immutable Distros, The Linux Foundation, Red Hat, and more. Glorious.

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! 🤣

openSUSE Linux has a long, rich history -- coupled with a uniquely valuable feature-set.

Unfortunately, serious mismanagement, a lack of vision, terrible messaging, and (worst of all) a policy of deliberate alienation of half the population... has put openSUSE on a bad road.

Here I (a former openSUSE elected Board Member) cover what, specifically, is going wrong with openSUSE... and how I believe it could be not only fixed, but set on a path towards massive success.

This may be a little "Inside Baseball"-ish, but I'm pretty psyched about the direction that Rumble and Locals are taking. Their latest announcement of "Rumble Studio" is an absolutely stellar move that is a critical component in moving people away from YouTube.

You asked me nerdy questions. I provided nerdy answers. That, right there, is nerdy teamwork.

Massive drops in marketing budgets for podcast advertisers and sponsors. Dynamically inserted advertisements. Crypto-currency tipping and "value for value" systems.

This episode is made available for free to everyone. Most episodes — including last weeks show — are only for subscribers to The Lunduke Journal.

In this very special episode of The Lunduke Big Tech Show… we’ll tackle a big, giant pile of the biggest problems in modern computing. What they are and, even more importantly, how we can approach fixing them (or at least dealing with them).

Some of the issues we tackle:

* The right to repair (and upgrade) our hardware.

* Ads plastered all over every website… and even our operating systems.<...

You know what really grinds my gears? When companies, organizations, and journalists actively (and knowingly) work to re-write (and memory hole) parts of history.

Especially computer history.

Just bugs me. And both Mozilla and the Open Source Initiative are guilty of doing exactly that. I need to vent.

So many reasons to subscribe to The Lunduke Journal of Technology. Nerdy articles & podcasts every week. Plus…

The battle over Linux package formats — and digitally purchasable Linux software — has been under a constant state of conflict since the 1990s.

And it rages on today.

Let’s look back at some of the history of this (including Ubuntu’s attempt to have a software store, Lindows Click N Run, and more) and the current state of software stores on Linux.

In fact… I kinda liked FreeBSD! At least a little!

Huh! Who saw that coming!?

Let’s take a moment to simply marvel at how massive an impact UNIX has had on the entire world of computing — an impact that has lasted for over 50 years.

By popular request, we are extending BSD Week — originally scheduled to end on Wednesday — by a whole extra week! “BSD Week” will now run until Wednesday, March 1st!

All of you wanted more BSD time… so you got it!

This works great for me as well.

My BSD articles keep expanding, and growing in scope (and number) — with my BSD History series now looking to be a total of 4 individual articles.

Plus, there are multiple BSD things I haven't had the chance to try yet that I really want to (including 2.11BSD and Ghos...

One of the things I truly enjoy is putting on big, big shows.

Hour-long presentations with big slide decks. You know, “Linux Sucks” type stuff.

Some of those big shows are in-depth and detailed — others are goofy and ridiculous — but they are always a ton of fun.

And, now that all three publications in The Lunduke Journal Triforce of Nerdiness have fully launched, it is time to kick off the next phase of Lunduke Journal awesomeness — as we start doing regular events with some seriously big shows (with some seriously big slide decks).

So much BSD! All week long!

From the beginning of BSD all the way through to present day systems! BSD 2.11, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, HelloSystem, NetBSD, Dragonfly BSD! You name a BSD, and we’re probably going to be doing something with it this week.

You can follow the articles and podcasts at Lunduke.Substack.com. (Some free, some for subscribers only.)

And the rest of the action — including posts from the entire community — is going to be at Lunduke.Locals.com.

I’ve just launched “The Great Lunduke Journal Computer Nerd Survey of 2023”. What is, essentially, a census (sorta) of computer nerds. Because… I’ve got some questions I would like to answer!

Also: A brand new benefit has been added to Lunduke Journal Founding Member and Lifetime Subscribers — Full access to both Lunduke Journal publications (Journal of Technology, and Journal of Conservative Nerdiness). See here for details on how to pick that up if you haven’t already. The Founding Member option is a crazy good deal… and it’s getting better all the time.

You can’t throw a rock without hitting news of a Tech Company doing yet another round of layoffs. Every day a new one. Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Salesforce, Meta… layoff after layoff after layoff.

Let’s talk about exactly why this is happening — it’s been a long time in coming. And, if we’re being honest, we all know that it needs to happen.

The Lunduke Journal of Technology has always been a “Politics-free” zone — a place where we can focus purely on the nerdy stuff that unites us all together.

Some time back I created the “Conservative Nerds” community to provide a fun place for nerds to discuss political topics (in large part as an outlet to help keep The Lunduke Journal of Technology completely free of all politics).

Starting today, the “Conservative Nerds” community is becoming a full publication:

I think I can confidently say that 8-Bit Week, here at The Lunduke Journal, was a massive success!

While previous themed weeks have been a blast (including DOS Week, Haiku Week, & PDA Week), 8-Bit Week blew them all out of the water… with a huge amount of wildly varied content posted by all of you in The Lunduke Journal Community.

The collection of links to 8-Bit Weeks posts for Days 1 & 2 and Days 3 & 4 are already available. The final few days worth of links will be posted to Lunduke.Locals.com shortly (there were a lot of 8-B...

The first 48 hours of “8-Bit Week” here at The Lunduke Journal has been an absolute blast!

Apple II. Commodore 64. Tandy Color Computer 3. Atari 800. These first two days of 8-Bit Week were filled to the brim with fun, fascinating posts by members of The Lunduke Journal Community.

Below is a, roughly chronological, list of 8-Bit Week posts in our community. Read through them all… or simply check out the ones that interest you. There’s something here for everyone. (Then scroll to the end of this post for a short selection of some of the fun pictures...

2022 has been a big year for The Lunduke Journal. A big year, filled with big articles.

What follows are some of my personal favorites — not necessarily the most popular articles… but the ones that I found the most interesting. Or that made me smile the most.

A few news items, some historical pieces, and a few bits of satire. All over the map, really.

Presented here, in no particular order. Because putting them in order was too hard.

Also… I was going to do my “Top 10 Favorite”. But that was too hard too...

It’s the end of the year. Which means I am morally obligated to provide the official Lunduke Journal predictions for 2023.

Plus… predictions are fun. And the computer world has a crazy year ahead of it.

Earlier in 2022, Lunduke predicted that the Haiku Operating System would become viable for daily use by many people (Lunduke included) by the end of the calendar year. Magically on schedule, Haiku now has a viable web browser (GNOME Web / Epiphany) ported and functional.

Plus: Let's talk about PDA Week and the Tandy Zoomer.

This episode is also available on Lunduke.Locals.com.

PalmOS! Windows CE! Psion! Newton! Zaurus! Let's spend this week celebrating, exploring, and marveling in the glory of the Personal Digital Assistant! It may be the age of the Smart Phone, but there's some pretty cool stuff that happened with those PDA's from the 1990s and early 2000s!

This episode also available on Lunduke.Locals.com.

Examples of two, popular A.I. systems — OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Microsoft GitHub’s Copilot — and how they can negatively impact the world… plus the highly unethical (and illegal) ways that they are developed.

This episode also available on Lunduke.Locals.com.

With so many people jumping from Twitter to Mastodon, let's take a moment to talk about some of the downsides (and upsides) of Mastodon... and the Fediverse in general. Along with some of my, rather bizarre, history with it.

Podcast also available on Locals.

It’s time for the weekly normal computer news. The Big Tech stuff that’s worth taking a look at.

Apple now worth more than Google, Amazon, and Meta… combined

Seriously.

“Apple finished Wednesday's session with a $2.31 trillion market cap, according to Yahoo! Finance data. Alphabet, Amazon, and Meta were worth a combined $2.3 trillion.”

Microsoft sued for GitHub Copilot

The Joseph Saveri Law Firm has filed a suit against Microsoft.

According to Bleeping Computing:

The complaint was submitted to the U.S. District...

Here is the “Weird” computer news — the retro and alternative OS stuff — for November 6th, 2022!

Currently 3 blocker bugs for Haiku Beta 4

For those looking forward to the upcoming “imminent" release of Haiku Beta 4… it’s worth noting that, according to the official Haiku bug tracker, there are only 4 issues that are marked as “blocker” for Beta 4.

Meaning that — at least as of this very moment — only three known bugs are considered critical to be fixed before Beta 4 is released.

What’s more, all three look to be fairly “simple” tasks. This bodes very well for Beta 4 b...

It’s Wednesday! So let’s talk about the normal computer news. You know. Big Tech stuff. Popular stuff. (Come back on Sunday for the weird computer news…)

Upcoming Lunduke Journal Events

It’s time for some weird computer news! None of that mainstream, Big Tech mumbo jumbo. Just the weird, fun, alternative OS and retro stuff!

Haiku Week is coming!

From November 9th through November 16th, The Lunduke Journal Community will be celebrating “Haiku Week”.

Much like with our previous “DOS Week” an...

Time for your “Normal” computer news! You know. The mainstream stuff. Microsoft, Apple, Linux, Google. That sort of thing.

Dive in below, and feel free to listen to the podcast as you go.

Apple releases macOS Ventura

This week Apple released the latest revision of their desktop Operating System: “macOS 13 — Ventura”.

Among the new features, Stage Manager (a tool for organizing windows on the desktop) and Freeform (a whiteboard-like software for real-time collaboration) seem to be the most standout.

Some of the Lunduke Journal Community members ha...

On Wednesday we talked about the “Normal” computer news.

But today is not Wednesday. Today is Sunday.

Thus we do the only logical thing… we talk about the “Weird” computer news.

Alternative Operating Systems. Retro computing. And funky stuff that most people will never hear about… but are mind-melting-ly awesome.

Solitaire via Gopher

This isn’t exactly breaking news — it was made back in April — but it was news to me. Plus… it’s so ridiculous and awesome that it deserves to get talked about.

There is always something fun and nerdy happening over on The Lunduke Journal Community (Lunduke.Locals.com). Let’s take a tour of some of my favorite stuff that’s being talked about this week (ending October 21st, 2022).

Note: This is by no means comprehensive. This is just a handful of the fun posts that jumped out at me this week. Things that made me smile. More family friendly, troll-free nerdiness than you can shake a stick at.

Here is the podcast. And the links. All in one place.

If you don’t have a...

Here comes the “Normal Computing” news of the week!

What is “Normal Computing”? Stuff about Microsoft, Apple, Google, and the like. Big Tech. The “Big 5”. Mainstream. You know. “Normal”.

Microsoft drops “Office” name… “Microsoft is now 365”

In “well that’s a dumb idea” news… Microsoft is officially killing off their “Microsoft Office” branding — which has been a cornerstone of the company for over 30 years — and renamed their office suite… “Microsoft 365”.

As someone who worked on the Microsoft Office development team for many years, I have thoughts:

* You use “Microsoft Office” to do “Office” stuff. What do you do with...

It’s time for the important news of the week! And this week is a fun one!

Haiku Beta 4 is “imminent”!

The September “Haiku Activity Report” has a number of excellent updates in it… but this little tidbit at the bottom of the monthly report was especially exciting:

Are we beta4 yet?

Two blocking issues were resolved last month. The only ones that remain are “tasks” (i.e. not true issues, but things which must be changed before the next release, and should not be hard to do at all.)

Thus it is my...

Officially “Command Line Week” starts at 8am (Eastern) on Wednesday.

But I’m just too excited. So I recorded the podcast episode and am posting it about 10 hours early. Let’s do this!

Here is a quick outline of the schedule of events (all times Eastern):

* Wednesday, Oct 12 @ 8am — Command Line Week kickoff podcast

* All Week — The Community posting all manner of Command Line goodies at Lunduke.Locals.com

* Saturday, Oct 15 @ 11am — Video Hangout for Founding Members and Lifetime Subscribers

* Saturday, Oct 15 @ 12pm — Text Chat for all subscribers over...

What follows is the most important news for the week! Linux-y news! Retro computer news! Alternative OS news! You know… the stuff that matters!

The Free Software Foundation is 37 years old!

On October 4th, 1985, Richard Stallman founded the Free Software Foundation.

Weird thought: On October 3rd, 1985, the Free Software Foundation didn’t exist.

After all these years, it’s almost hard to imagine a world where the FSF wasn’t around.

A physical, retro-Hard-Drive sound simulator: HDD Clicker

This mad genius got tired...

It’s Sunday! Which means it’s time for some Linux, Alternative OS, & Retro Computing news!

You know… the important stuff.

The podcast & the article! All in one spot! Huzzah!
