I would go for a distro that has relatively recent/up to date packages, especially for Linux kernel and power-profiles-daemon, as these will work better with the CPU than packages from 6-12 months ago
Looks like the 5.6.1-2 release on Arch moved from using the published GitHub releases to just using the git repository directly, which as I understand avoids the exploit (because the obfuscated script to inject the exploit is only present in the packaged tarballs and not the git repo itself)
Not OP, but thanks for the suggestion, seems like they might be a good choice for wide fitting walking boots and the like, and they’ve got plenty of outdoor shops listed in the UK as stockists
On the made in the UK note though, seems like many of their boots are manufactured in a factory in Italy?
OP tagged Linux in the post and that specific tag actually links to !linux@lemmy.ml resulting in the Mastodon post being posted to the community
Anyone that still wants a supported version of win 10, look into Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC (2021) - supported until 2032 and can be activated by MAS with HWID
