Thanks for the detailed explanation!

I'd be interested to see what people have to say regarding VR setup, but the Oculus gets little use anymore. I have a few games that were never ported to the newer, self-contained systems (I have a Quest 3), and we've downloaded a bunch of custom Beat Saber levels that I might feel bad about, but the sensors are a big enough pain to set up that I don't know that I'd feel that bad.
Truth. Full system would be easier.
I'm pretty sure anything of value is already backed up to my NAS. I'm just paranoid that my kids might freak out that I destroyed their state fair winning Scratch project or something.
I have an old (2017) Windows 10 box that is ineligible for Windows 11. Originally purchased to run my Oculus Rift, it now just streams YouTube and Twitch and plays some old Steam games and occasionally school related stuff (Lexia, Scratch, stuff like that).
I started thinking that, rather than worrying about an unsupported Windows OS on my network, I might upgrade to Mint or Ubuntu.
So, my question(s) is/are, how much of a hassle will such an upgrade be? Will I need to wipe the drive, or can I keep my files without having to back them up first? Can I run Windows games on Steam with Wine? Are there good 3D card drivers nowadays?
I'm reasonably versed in using Linux as a user, less so as an admin, in case that affects the way you answer.

It isn't absolute. English is always evolving. What starts as two words may merge over time into a compound, or may not, or may exist in some grey area where either is acceptable. In the case of redshirt vs. red shirt, I think of the former as an individual concept, and the latter as a red individual concept. More specifically, the concept of a guy from Star Trek who gets regularly killed vs. a shirt that is red. But until a compound noun is widely understood and accepted, unless you're getting graded on your writing, either would usually be acceptable. As a native speaker, I couldn't even tell you if "hot dog" or "hotdog" is the more accepted spelling.

Eet's a race!
Boneheads. They initiated an entirely unnecessary conflict. They didn't see this as a possibility?
Wow. It's been a long time since I've heard that one.
Depends on the hardware, but generally, yeah.
