Show Notes
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. So… there’s 12 of them.
Enjoy.
* Firefox Money: Investigating the bizarre finances of Mozilla
* BREAKING: The Lunduke Journal predicts 37% more buzzwords in 2023
* The computers used to do 3D animation for Final Fantasy VII... in 1996.
* Linus Torvalds threatens to punish developers by putting Rust in the Linux Kernel
* DESQview/X : The forgotten mid-1990s OS from the future
* Local man switches to Arch, tells no one
* Wendin-DOS : The forgotten multi-tasking, multi-user DOS clone from the 1980s.
* The wild events that nearly took down the QB64 project (but, thankfully, didn't)
* W: The Window System before X... that nobody seems to remember
* Who is the (real) first Computer Programmer?
* The story of the first "computer bug"... is a pile of lies.
Heads up: Just until Friday at midnight, I’m making the Lifetime Subscriptions available again for The Lunduke Journal. This was requested, and I’m happy to oblige. But I can only make these available for a short window. So, if you want one, now’s your chance.
Check out this post on Lunduke.Locals.com with full details on how to sign up for the full Lifetime Sub. It’s a pretty sweet deal. No paying ever again, full access to both Locals and Substack for life… can’t go wrong.
