Do you know if the fans are particularly loud? Something I love about my ThinkPad is that it's basically silent

I'm a big fan of being able to fix stuff myself, XPSes I've heard are very good but I also like the idea of being able to just upgrade the CPU GPU and memory later on when it starts to slow down and not have to buy a whole new laptop
Could you not just use root to give your user sudo? Seems like a pretty dumb restriction
Fantastic, no issues with sleep or anything? Everyone else seems to say the sleep mode battery drain is huge
(planning to do sleep then hibernate anyway, or maybe just hibernate and not even bother with sleep)
Seems to be a pretty common complaint, you'd hope they would've fixed that given how many people seem to be having that issue
Fantastic, how long have you had it for out of curiosity since you said you got it recently? I'm also wondering as to the longevity of these laptops
Does the same apply for hibernation? My current behavior is to hibernate my machine manually before shutting the lid anyway so I don't think that would bother me too much (though it would be nice to have a machine that will suspend properly)
I can live with that, my thinkpad won't sleep properly at the moment anyway (I've taken to just running systemctl hibernate before closing the lid, I should probably set that to the default behaviour instead of suspend at some point)
Yep that I imagine is one of the main intended use cases, in my case would probably be overkill though
Got adblock and yt premium, that way the creators I watch still benefit
Also especially if you get a family plan and split the cost it's really not too bad, £5 a month seems pretty reasonable to me for yt plus music
How's the fan noise? I've got quite accustomed to silent fans on my current laptop
