The Lunduke Journal of Technology

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 on Lunduke.Locals.com* Wednesday, Oct 19 @ 8am — Wrap-up podcastPlus: Over the course of the week, I’ll be posting articles related to the Command Line (Linux Shells, etc.) on The Lunduke Journal — like the recent “The History of the First Computer Shell”.And don’t miss Gabe’s Awesome List of TUI Software! It’s a fantastic place to start on your Command Line journey!Make sure you have a Lunduke.Locals.com account!This is key to unlocking the full enjoyment of Command Line Week!While Substack is absolutely amazing, Locals provides the community features we need to fully enjoy the awesomeness of something like this — including the ability for everyone to make top-level posts, live chats, and more. It simply is not possible entirely via Substack.To make getting a Locals account easier for folks, I’m going to have a very specific sale… that is only available if you take advantage of it through Lunduke.Locals.com.I know. I know. I said I wasn’t going to have any more sales this year. But I am so excited about Command Line Week — I don’t want anyone to miss out! Plus… I’m the boss. I can change my mind if I want to. ;)How to take advantage of this dealRepeat: This sale is only available if you create an account on Lunduke.Locals.com. The whole point is to bring more of you over to Locals to enjoy the good times! However, both of these options also come with full access on Substack as well! Best of both worlds!* Go to Lunduke.Locals.com/Subscription.* Choose “Card” and “Annual”.* Enter the amount of the subscription you want (choose from the options below).* Lunduke will follow up with you to make sure you have full access to both Substack and Locals. (This usually only takes a couple hours.)Founding Member Subscription - Cost: $125 / Year $75 / YearBenefits: Everything from the Standard Subscription, plus:* A monthly video hangout with Lunduke & other Founding Members* Full access to both Lunduke.Locals.com and Lunduke.Substack.com* Founding Member Email Newsletter* Personalized Audio MessagesLifetime Subscription - Cost $350 (one time) $200 (one time)Benefits: Everything from the Founding Member Subscription:* For life… pay once, and and you get all of the perks… for as long as The Lunduke Journal exists. Which, considering Lunduke has been publishing articles and podcasts for over 15 years, is likely to be a good, long time.I highly recommend the Lifetime Subscription. It is just such a good deal.Note: This deal cannot be combined with the “Upgrade System of Awesomeness” (where you can apply your current subscription towards an upgraded one. It’s already too good of a deal. Stacking them would just be… insane. :) This is a public episode.

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 ClickerThis mad genius got tired of the silence of his flash based hard drives. He longed for the days when his bit, magnetic hard drives made all of those awesome “hard drive noises”.So he did something about it: He build a small device that made that noise when his flash drives are accessed..Check out the video demos he gives. Turn the sound up. Just lovely.I want four.Canonical launches Ubuntu Pro as free service for individualsCanonical is now offering an “Ubuntu Pro” service for individuals… for free.“Anyone can use Ubuntu Pro for free on up to 5 machines”And then, naturally, companies and big organizations will need to purchase a subscription plan for the Ubuntu Pro service. Makes sense. And, really, is a model I quite like: Businesses and Enterprise customers are helping fund the development and support… which directly benefits the individuals. Nice.The primary purpose of Ubuntu Pro looks to be “ten years” of security updates for the core OS plus “23,000” other packages:“Ubuntu Pro (currently in public beta) expands our famous ten-year security coverage to an additional 23,000 packages beyond the main operating system.Including Ansible, Apache Tomcat, Apache Zookeeper, Docker, Drupal, Nagios, Node.js, phpMyAdmin, Puppet, PowerDNS, Python 2, Redis, Rust, WordPress, and many more...”Honestly, this seems like the way to go for folks using Ubuntu. Better support, longer lifespan of updates in the repository… if I were running Ubuntu, I’d probably jump on that. Especially considering the fact that it’s free. This is a public episode.

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!GNU toolchain hosting moving to… Linux FoundationIt appears that the GNU toolchain projects — which includes GCC, Make and glibc — are preparing to move their hosting entirely to… The Linux Foundation.Seriously.From the announcement:“During the Sourceware / Infrastructure BoF sessions at GNU Cauldron, the GNU Toolchain community in collaboration with the Linux Foundation and OpenSSF, announced the GNU Toolchain Infrastructure project (GTI). The collaboration includes a fund for infrastructure and software supply chain security, which will allow us to utilize the respected Linux Foundation IT (LF IT) services that host kernel.org and to fund other important projects.”This will definitely not end badly. *cough*VM2 - a modern VMU for the Sega Dreamcast!A new project to create a modern, updated memory unit for the Sega Dreamcast has raised almost 150 thousand dollars over on Idiegogo. And, I gotta say, it looks kinda awesome.“The VM2 project aims in the total reproduction and upgrade of the original VMU for our beloved Dreamcast. The VMU was one of the greatest console's assets, but with many design flaws. Now, with the VM2, all of these flaws are eliminated giving the user an experience that truly feels like next-gen! Internally, the VM2 received a totally fresh design with modern electronics. Externally, it is upgraded and at the same time keeps the original looks & feels, as a tribute to the original VMU.Features & Upgrades* ​New monochrome backlit LCD* Higher screen resolution* Micro-SD storage* Internal storage of 128KB (200 blocks)* Embedded High-capacity battery* USB-C port (for charging & connecting to a PC)* Original Audio support* DreamEye support* Original language support (EN/JP)* LCD game images streaming to PC* Charging from both the controller, and the USB-C port* Support for VM2-to-VM2 connection (with future firmware update)”NES-OS… an OS. For the NES.There is a new OS — albeit a limited one — for the Nintendo Entertainment System: NES-OS.“NESOS is an operating system designed for the Nintendo Entertainment and Family Computer Systems. The operating system features two core applications, the word processor, and the settings. The word processor allows users to print characters and certain blocks to the screen, then save that data in the form of a file for later use or editing. The settings app displays system information and lets the user select one of seven cursors, and one of 53 possible desktop background colors. It also acts as the file manager, allowing users to delete their saved files.”It’s limited. Highly limited. Only able to save 8 files (of up to 2k each). But, still. Super cool that it was done at all.Fun side note: This is not the first project called “NES-OS”. There was another one created 6 yeas ago, which you can find on Git Hub, which took a completely different approach. That one consisting of a design for a PS/2 hardware interface (so a keyboard could be connected to the NES), a command line, a BrainF interpreter, and two sample games (Life and Snake)Fedora shipping without some codecsFedora 37 has disabled GPU support for some media codecs (such as H.264) due to legal concerns.This has caused many to be quite annoyed — understandably — because not having support for some popular codecs is inconvenient.That said… this is not exactly unprecedented.In fact… this is the very reason that Linux Mint exists at all. Mint was created for the sole purpose of having some media codecs preinstalled… codecs that Ubuntu did not feel like they could legally distribute in many countries at the time. There was, quite literally, no other reason for Mint existing in those early days.Likewise, openSUSE (which I used to be on the Board for) also opted to not distribute many such “legally dubious” media codecs — such as MP3 — back in those days. Resulting in multiple openSUSE based distros that added the codecs in.System76 ditching GTK for new POP!_OS desktopIt appears that System76, the company behind the Pop!_OS Linux distribution, is working to ditch GTK for their upcoming “Cosmic” desktop environment. Instead opting to use the, Rust based, Iced framework.According to one of the developers:“After much deliberation and experimentation over the last year, the engineering team has decided to use Iced instead of GTK.Iced is a native Rust GUI toolkit that's made enough progress lately to become viable for use in COSMIC. Various COSMIC applets have already been written in both GTK and Iced for comparison. The latest development versions of Iced have an API that's very flexible, expressive, and intuitive compared to GTK. It feels very natural in Rust, and anyone familiar with Elm will appreciate its design.COSMIC Settings will be developed in tandem with, and from, this toolkit.”It remains to be seen how this will turn out.
