Have you confirmed you have the proprietary-codecs flag enabled? Its been a minute since I have used this browser, but I recall that and the widevine flag being the answer for Netflix etc...

Just copy over your config and all will stay intact. For example when I upgrade I use this cp /usr/src/linux-CURRENT-RUNNING-KERNEL-gentoo/.config /usr/src/linux/. Here are the docs for ref for future upgrades. Glad you got things running! https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Kernel/Upgrade

No shame at all IMO. Most of my day to day is with React, but I also utilize JQuery in place of vanilla JS at times if allowed on a project. This may or may not be useful to you https://caniuse.com/ for browser support.

This should answer your questions for an upgrade. https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Kernel/Upgrade Just make sure your bootloader etc is updated and that you can boot into new kernel before removing anything. I also suggest keeping an extra kernel in case anything breaks with an upgrade....always nice to ...

Definitely, you have already overcome one of the bigger hurdles just with the installation alone. Keep in mind that you may never even touch USE flags in many cases, and when you do need to enable them its very well documented and really easy once you do it a few times. You are correct with Gentoo ...

Although the game is native it appears to have some issues https://www.protondb.com/app/236390. I see this also from 6 months ago https://www.reddit.com/r/Warthunder/com ... rom_steam/

Maybe some of this will lead you down the rabbit hole to get it working.

Once a day, typically early morning before work.

Most of the tools needed I get here within the Gentoo Repositories, other users ebuilds, or just use my own ebuilds, but for my work within React & JS the tools are easy to come by. My WM is bwspm along with few other creature comforts!

nodejs, Postman, SQLtabs(I build myself), Atom for my IDE

This may be helpful in finding various configs https://github.com/gentoo/genkernel/tree/master/arch

As the other mentioned Super+alt+Q=logout will log you out of BSPWM, but that can be changed to any keybind you would like by changing the binding within sxhkd. I dont see too much on our wiki, but here is some info from the Arch wiki on sxhkd https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sxhkd

I will also throw in my suggestion for AMD Ryzen

Someone can correct me if I am wrong, but windows records your bios data in the cloud for validations nowadays. For my wife's pc after I upgraded her storage etc I just did a clean install and selected install without a key. Once it booted it synced and activated with the data they had saved for her ...

To each their own, but for a WM only install I would follow the Gentoo handbook and select the desktop profile. I am a bspwm user so not certain of what Awesome requires, but I think your going to grab a lot of unneeded stuff by using a gnome profile since its geared towards Gnome. All other points ...

Well, here's the new legislation (Ley Federal de Protección a la Propiedad Industrial) that the YouTube video is talking about:

From a cursory scan, it looks to me like it's intended to further protect intellectual property and ...

You can change that within your config.h file. You will see the setting along with a generic setting for gimp near the top of the file. Just change to whatever your preference is.

static const Rule rules[] = {
/* xprop(1):
* WM_CLASS(STRING) = instance, class
* WM_NAME(STRING) = title ...

Slightly off topic.

Talking about browsers. Which one would you recommend for developing and testing web applications (xhtml, php, mysql, js + jquery)?
I'm using firefox, konqueror and opera. Are there in portage any others with good debugging tools?

Really you have it covered, I prefer FF as ...

It's interesting seeing the different options for this build. I haven't necessarily decided yet on going all the way to the 3950X - I am still researching the benefit/price balance. However, there are some other questions that I am working through at the moment:
Should I have only SSD drives? I ...

In my recent usage of Gentoo, I started with genkernel just to get my system running. Over time I learned more about how my hardware needed to be configured within the kernel and just started removing things and building my own kernel away from genkernel. The tools you listed are great and typically ...

Agree with this or just ctl + R as I am easy to please

Just utilize Network Manager instead of dhcpcd. Good luck, the new Deepin they have out in beta looks great!

I am, and have been a fan of Lenovo Thinkpads. They just seem to work for the most part, but in all honesty (I am prob an outlier, and I dont mean minor bugs etc...) I have not had an issue sticking Linux on any laptop/desktop in recent times. I put Gentoo on a turd of an Asus the other day for fun ...

I'm also a desktop user:

I use ext4 for my additional storage
I use GPT partition tables

If you're running with Performance Core Boost (bios setting), you might disable it and see if your temp surges don't stabilize.

As far as the difference between Ryzen and previous gen chips, it might be more the lack of reporting in previous gens vs a real difference.

OC'ing should be fine with ...

Ive been running GA-AB350-Gaming (rev. 1.x) with the Ryzen 1600 since it came out without any issues (even overclocked a bit to 3.8GHZ with the stock cooler this entire time). I just upgraded the CPU yesterday with a 3600 without issues (after upgrading BIOS). Only real difference I notice is my ...
