  • Ubuntu en sus últimos tiempos

      Hubo una época en que instalar Ubuntu parecía una pequeña declaración filosófica. No era solamente un sistema operativo. Era una idea. La idea de que: compartir conocimiento tenía valor, el software podía construirse colectivamente, y la tecnología no necesitaba existir únicamente para extraer datos, vender publicidad o encerrar usuarios dentro de ecosistemas cerrados. Para…

  • The Condemnation of Linux, and Its Beauty

    Keywords: Digital Sovereignty, Linux, Open Source  Linux has a problem: it will never be entirely normal. Not because it is naturally difficult, nor because its users belong to some technical sect, although they sometimes work hard to prove the point. Linux’s problem is deeper. It was not designed to behave like a single, closed, obedient…

  • ¿Por qué optimizar al máximo puede arruinar tu ciencia? El peligro oculto de CachyOS y la bandera -O3

    Cuando armamos un entorno para investigar, analizar datos econométricos o correr modelos estadísticos, la tentación de la velocidad es enorme. Queremos exprimir cada ciclo del procesador. Es ahí donde entran alternativas de nicho espectaculares como CachyOS, prometiendo exprimir el silicio con kernels modificados y binarios hiper-optimizados bajo la agresiva bandera -O3 del compilador. Suena perfecto,…

  • How to Tame the Brother 161xNW Over the Network Without Losing Your Mind

    Keywords: Arch, Brother, CachyOS, dcp-1617nw The Definitive Arch Linux/CachyOS Guide Some hardware feels like it was designed to test the patience of Linux users. The Brother DCP-1610NW —and its close relatives in the 161x family— fits perfectly into that category. It is a monochrome laser multifunction printer: cheap to run, physically tough, reliable, and clearly…

  • De la Resistencia al Mainstream: Una Bitácora de la Evolución de la Infraestructura Linux (1993-2026)

      Por: Carlos Administrador de Sistemas, Ex-Tesorero Municipal y Pionero de la Terminal Pura Introducción: Cuando el Software se Domaba a Mano Hoy en día, levantar un servidor en la nube toma dos clics, y conceptos como contenedores, entornos de desarrollo automatizados en la web o sincronizaciones automáticas a través de APIs se dan por…

  • The Edge of Control: The Epistemic Foundation of Arch Linux vs. the Illusion of CachyOS

    Keywords: Arch Llinux, CachyOS, Compilers, Epistemology, Operating Systems, Reproducibility When analyzing the infrastructure on which we run quantitative research, econometric analysis, or simulation models, the temptation of raw speed often clouds methodological judgment. This is the landscape where niche alternatives like CachyOS gain ground, promising to squeeze hardware performance through modified kernels (such as linux-cachyos)…

  • Automation vs. Full Control

    Keywords: Arch, Backup, KDE, Kup, rsync Demystifying Backups in KDE Plasma: Kup vs. rsync Yesterday, we talked about a simple but fundamental idea: a backup should not be a complex ceremony, but a reproducible habit. In  “Backups with rclone: Synchronizing Without Making Life Complicated” , the focus was on synchronizing a work environment to the…

  • Backups with rclone: Synchronizing Without Making Life Complicated

    A simple strategy to avoid losing your work environment One of the most common mistakes in computing is remembering backups only when it is already too late. When the disk fails.When an update breaks something.When we accidentally delete a folder.When a laptop stops booting.When that “temporary” file turns out to be important. In the world…
