"The Ben Heckendorn Interview" - Conservative Nerds Podcast - Sep 11, 2023
For the audio version:
https://conservativenerds.locals.com/post/4567762/the-ben-heckendorn-interview-conservative-nerds-podcast-sep-11-2023
Today I had the chance to talk with one of the coolest nerds on this green Earth of ours: Ben Heckendorn (aka the "Ben Heck" part of "The Ben Heck Show" ).
We've watched Ben turn XBox's, Atari 800's, and Apple IIgs's into handhelds and laptops. We've seen him build amazing Pinball machines. Oh, oh! And he builds custom, one-handed game controllers for amputees. How awesome is that? This nerd is legit.
But today we're talking to Ben almost entirely about political stuff. While Ben doesn't identify as "Conservative" or "Right Wing"... he is one of the rare nerd voices that have been actively speaking out against some of the craziness in the world (such as Covid insanity).

Fisher & Lunduke (original Linux Action Show) on the Past, Present, & Future of Linux
After far, far too long, Chris Fisher & Bryan Lunduke (the creators of The Linux Action Show) get together to record a few episodes. This is a little teaser of the first one.
It's not exactly a "Linux Action Show Reunion" episode. But it's kinda-sorta like one!
The full first episode is on The Lunduke Journal:

This episode is free for the world to enjoy -- thanks to support from the truly awesome The Lunduke Journal community.
Many major Tech organizations accept donations for one thing... then use that money for something completely different. Mozilla. Wikipedia. The Linux Foundation. It's... ridiculous.
