    I needed to update my parents old NUC from Win7, it was either new hardware to run Win10 or give Linux a try, I told them I had been running Linux since 09 full time and it isn’t any harder than running Windows.

    I said how about you give it a go for a month or so and see how you go.

    I installed Mint, it has been a few years now and no real issues beyond taking a while to get the printer working. I installed rust desk for remote assistance which I have only used 3 times since install.

    At approx 3kV/mm, you would have to be pretty close to a 10kV fence.

    Humidity plays a big role as does the frequency that the fence is running on. But you would be pretty safe standing a meter away, on that dry sunny day in the picture.

    Also above a point, the high voltage causes the conductors to buzz.
