Nuestro juramento is the most popular song in the history of Ecuador, especially in Guayaquil, where Julio Jaramillo was from. However, most Ecuadorians are unaware that it was written by someone outside their country.

Benito de Jesús said to be living off the royalties of "Nuestro juramento". Every 6 months he received royalties from different countries.[2]

Other versions

Many singers have sung versions of "Nuestro juramento", including Ecuadorian singer Olimpo Cárdenas, Colombian singers Charlie Zaá and Alci Acosta, Peruvian singer Tania Libertad, Puerto Rican singer Daniel Santos, and the Mexican groups Los Baby's and Café Tacvba. The latter was in the soundtrack of the movie Crónicas, directed by Sebastián Cordero.[2]

gollark: Funnily enough, Intel ends up being best for Linux gaming, since they only have open-source Linux drivers (unlike Nvidia's thing with only their bad proprietary drivers being supported and them being awful to open-source ones, and AMD's with the proprietary drivers being decent and open-source ones being mostly similar).
gollark: Also for gaming, though it's not that great because not all games actually support it, and also Nvidia drivers.
gollark: For a web-browsing/office-type system you can just run Linux.
gollark: As I said, the RX 570 is a pretty good budget GPU as long as you have a spare PCIe power connector.
