So the bad news: "they are everywhere".

The good news is that I got the right SQL syntax. But yeah, a lot of
the link got "fixed". In fact, there is even some who date back to the
time the blog was on openshift online v2.

Theer is link for cards, but also internal links, like :
https://fedoramagazine.org/upcoming-features-in-fedora-31-workstation/ 

"deeply involved" is not using the right domain name.

So while it can be changed with a SQL query, I am a bit unconfortable
doing a large scale sql modification without a stage instance for now.
I will try to do smaller change first, and see if I can at least find
the cards that got broken.
