Is there any reason why I shouldn't run just Linux

None at all, really.

No games.
Games are life.
Therefore you don't live if you use anything else than windows

install gentoo

Decide based on what you need, it can be just fine on its own if it does everything you need or want

>>62481982
You can but without GNU you won't be able to do do much with it

>>62482023
>muh games

it has games, just not as much as windows. Definitely more than macOS.

If you're cool with the software/game selection and you don't mind a bit of fiddling every once in a while, it's A-OK

what did he mean by this?

>>62481982
not really but get a really stable one, like centOS or xubuntu LTS

Unless you're running server(s) or need the environment for development work you will gain absolutely nothing but unnecessary headaches from using Linux on your desktop. Just stick to LTSB botnet or pirate the Enterprise and stick 'em with the GPOs.

>what do you mean "this landfill has no edible food"?

>>62482657
only indie trashes. Fuck linux

>>62481982
On your own computer? Nope, none at all.
On your company computer, plenty of reasons, ask before you delete the system.

quality over quantity anon

Install nonfree Debian with Cinnamon and it's like Windows except better.

So you are picky?
All games are trash BTW.
It is far too easy to spend all your time home alone, get a hobby that forces you to meet people so you can grow as a person.

Thanks for playing, freetard.

Not him but I have successfully played Shadow of Mordor on Linux. I didn't do anything except clicked "Install" from Steam and it worked perfectly. I also installed Portal and it was the same thing. I'm assuming all the Steam games which say Linux will work the same way. It's pretty much the perfect system.

Have you played any games lately that you felt like spending $1000 on?

>>62482906
>only list shitty games
What did he means by this?

set aside 20-40gb for Linux, that's more than enough for Linux because there are zero programs available for the hobbyist OS

Go back to Counter Strike, fag

Don't worry, candy crush is supported too ;)

Let's say I have an external device I need to update through my computer, will having Linux affect that?

>>62482969
What device

>>62482942
He doesn't need to, counter strike is also supported.

GPU passthrough. Basically all CPUs made in the last 5 years can do it. You still need Windows, but it's running in a VM, which is better than the alternative.

>>62483323
I thought GPU passthrough worked on linux now?
