Así tengo mi escritorio actualmente.
Es el gestor de ventanas #openbox , le he quitado el marco superior, se parece a un Tiling Window pero sin serlo.
Sigo en Debian 12, tengo mucha pereza en subir de versión. Cuando se vaya el calor sofocante que tenemos en España migraré a la versión 13. 🤭
Uf, hacía meses que no subía un

I got a Thinkpad x270 at a great price a few months ago, and the Arch Linux & i3wm combo makes it work great.
Their reputation for working well with GNU/Linux systems is well deserved.
If you are looking for alternatives for your computer equipment, the second-hand market offers this and other classic models at a very good price in almost every corner of the globe. And when the second wave of equipment arrives thanks to Windows 11, this is going to be amazing.

🥳 New Kitten Release
To GNU tar or not to GNU tar?
• Installing Kitten on Linux should no longer display a screenful of gibberish from the tar command.
You see, macOS, being special, includes BSD tar, not GNU tar, and adds a bunch of Mac-specific metadata and extended header keywords to archives that GNU tar on Linux machines then chokes on and regurgitates onto your screen as warnings.
With this release, Kitten’s packaging script expects GNU tar to be available on ma…

Linux krups 2.5.1 #74 Thu Jul 31 00:15:27 UTC 2025 sparc GNU/Linux
Damn, that was hard; I built a happy working 2.4.27 on my Javastation krups, 2.6. can't get keyboard or graphics going; so I wanted to try somewhere in between. But we're pre-git, so plain bisect is out. And getting that 2.5.1 to work on the gcc I was using (3.3.5) has been 'fun' - I've just found the fix from later in 2.5 to get 'schedule()' not to break; gcc moved a label 😠 Onwards to l…

Happy Birthday, Linux!
🎁🎂🎈 🥳
I first installed Linux on my computer many months after that announcement, in December 1992. I have memories of swapping an almost endless pack of floppy disks during the lengthy install at a Chaos Communication Congress in Hamburg, Germany. The album “Connected” by Stereo MC's was playing several times until I was finally greeted with a shell prompt.

Post to the comp.os.minix newsgroup on August 25 1991 by Linus Torvalds:

Hello everybody out there using minix -

I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones. This has been brewing since april, and is starting to get ready. I'd like any feedback on things people like/dislike in minix, as my OS resembles it somewhat (same physical layout of the file-system (due to practical reasons) among other things).

I've currently ported…

New on #Quansight PBC blog: Python Wheels: from Tags to Variants
#Python distributions are uniform across different Python versions and platforms. For these distributions, it is sufficient to publish a single wheel that can be installed everywhere. However, some packages are more complex than that; they include compiled Python extensions or binaries. In order to robustly deploy these software on different platforms, you need to publish multiple binary packages, and the installers need to select the one that fits the platform used best.
For a long time, Python wheels made do with a relatively simple mechanism to describe the needed variance: Platform compatibility tags. These tags identified different Python implementations and versions, operating systems, and CPU architectures. Over time, they were extended to facilitate new use cases. To list a couple: PEP 513 added manylinux tags to standardize the core library dependencies on GNU/Linux systems, and PEP 656 added musllinux tags to facilitate Linux systems with musl libc.
However, not all new use cases can be handled effectively within the framework of tags. To list a few:
• The advent of GPU-backed computing made distinguishing different acceleration frameworks such as NVIDIA CUDA or AMD ROCm important.
• As the compatibility with older CPUs became less desirable, many distributions have set baselines for their binary packages to x86-64-v2 microarchitecture level, and Python packages need to be able to express the same requirement.
• Numerical libraries support different BLAS/LAPACK, MPI, OpenMP providers, and wish to enable the users to choose the build matching their desired provider.
While tags could technically be bent to facilitate all these use cases, they would grow quite baroque, and, critically, every change to tags needs to be implemented in all installers and package-related tooling separately, making the adoption difficult.
Facing these limitations, software vendors have employed different solutions to work around the lack of an appropriate mechanism. Eventually, the #WheelNext initiative took up the challenge to design a more robust solution.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as OpenBSD, is in fact, GNU/OpenBSD, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus OpenBSD. OpenBSD is not an operating system unto itself but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system
