I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNULinux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
Linux is the kernel the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNULinux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNULinux.

ignore vimfags
especially if they try to tell you that you will learn in it 10 minutes
such obvious shillery seems just desperate attempt to attract new users to a dying platform

it takes months to get accustom to the workflow, getting comfy with the plugins and the plugin system, figuring out conflicts also takes time

and in the end, the final benefit will be that you will know some tricks to save few keystrokes, tricks you use 1% of your daily use...

visual studio code is very well done and opensource, even if microsoft stands behind it
atom is also very interesting and decent as basic with potential to grow, but at the moment behind visual studio code

but both above are based on electron(chromium) using javascript and node.js which makes them kinda meh as far as speed and efficiency goes

If you want to play games on Linux, you install a VM and Win7 and enable your GPU for passthrough.

Hope you have a semi-recent motherboard for hardware emulation.
Pretty much anything i5-tier boards should have it.

Far better than hoping and praying your developer of [game] decided to support a still-niche OS.

Dual-boot is for retards.

rsync, from what you described

rsync -avh --delete /home/faggot_user /mnt/external_hdd


though you might want to setup some exclusions, like .cache .thumbnails .trash

though I like to keep old backups for few months so the god tier borgbackup is better for me with its deduplicating and incredibly fast system

but the files would not be readable on the external hdd, they would be in "repo" and you would be mounting whichever backup from whichever date

I've not posted on /g/ in a week.

Dual boot is fucking trivial.

VM with passthrough is actually more complex.
You don't need a second video card, whoever stated that is a fucking moron.

Embedded graphics on any recent motherboard is more than enough for your Linux host, only Windows should need a GPU of any significance for playing games or doing SCIENCE or whatever.
Fuck man, my ancient Dell from 2004 has decent embedded graphics for a non-gaming PC.

Fellow winbabby here who only recently installed Linux (Mint). It's literally apt-get -install playonlinux, then you open the thing and search for whatever windowshit you want installed.

The main problem is that some stuff like battlenet take some tinkering with additional libraries to get working but I can't imagine that's the case with EVERY program.

lyx: write in latex without the hassle, you will soon wonder how could you live without it
gthumb: order all you pictures and videos with this pretty program
darktable: edit pictures in an easy way
sxiv: this is one of my personal choices, is a minimal picture viewer
moc (music on console): another personal choice, this music player is better looking (by tweaking it) and is better prepared to browse a clusterfuck of files
zathura: a personal choice for reading pdfs an other ebook formats (via addons)
spacefm: my choice for file manager, can be tweaked to suit every need

there is more but this should be enough
