You might consider Linux Mint instead of Ubuntu. A lot of what you want is going to work (and be preinstalled) right out of the box. It’s a great system to start with.
I play Stellaris and Minecraft on Linux Mint… Stellaris runs fine through Steam. Minecraft, just download the Linux launcher, it will do everything else for you.
Depending on the distro, Linux may or may not be able to write to NTFS volumes out of the box.
The proper way to share drives between Windows and Linux is to format them to ExFAT.
This is 100% a scene from a Witcher game.

VOICEOVER: Captain’s log, star date 571.204. As we are unable to transport through the energy field, Commander Riker, Commander Data and I remain trapped on the strange asteroid, which continues to fall ever faster into the black hole. As we have no way out of our predicament, it seems we have no choice but to attempt to solve the strange murder of the mysterious hotel guest.
PICARD (knocking on hotel manager’s door): Hello! Is there anyone in there! We demand to speak with the manager at once!
ANNOYED VOICE: Go away! I’m busy!

ANNOYED VOICE: Oh, very well. Come in, if you must.
PICARD: Q! I should have known you were behind this!
Q: Inspector Jean Luc. How nice of you to drop by. You have a warrant, I assume?
Points for the correct answer. I work on systems for spacecraft and podman is what we use on those for containerization (better option for a couple reasons)… but we literally just SAY docker to the suits, because that’s what they’ve heard of. Which is why I said docker to this guy.
Docker and Podman are both free. Podman is the lighter weight, more FOSS, also slightly more DIY option, they are intercompatible - I work on systems for spacecraft and Podman is what we use on those because it’s lighter weight. If you want to run something in docker, ChatGPT is actually pretty good at talking you through the specific setup (at least that’s been my experience).
Docker can absolutely run desktop apps.
Better name than X.
Fast forward the world of His Dark Materials 400 years and you get this.
Unfair. There were some episodes with Pike and / or Saru that were… Never mind. Fuck it. Put it in the top box.

Since it’s a wall art project, now get it to run Minecraft and run a redstone computer on it.
Yep. As a Gen Xer with a teenage son, when I hear my peers freaking out about our kids and technology, I remind them what our parents said about MTV.
This was the most informative thing I read on the internet today. I can’t wait to go start a blog.
“A high resolution photo of a bag piper in the style of Doctor Seuss.”
This was a recent episode of The Boys. I haven’t laughed so hard at people dying horrible, gruesome deaths in a long time.
I’ve been a linux user for 25 years.
My computers are all named after Autobots and my wallpaper on each computer is a picture of that computer’s namesake from one of the various continuities.
That’s just how I roll out.
