When there a new laptop release with an Intel CPU, the topic of fans is rarely talked. How is the Framework doing when it comes to heat? I decided that I will no longer buy a laptop that whirls fans whenever you do something more resource intensive or even simply open an app. I have fairly modern XPS 15 and the fan noise is just unbearable. It puts me off coming near the laptop. So it looks like I'll have to bite the bullet and buy M1/M2 if there is going to be a way to run Linux reliably.
