buy any AMD laptop, replace the wifi card, install your favorite distro and it will run like magic.

You get a new, capable, and power-efficient device, while not bothering with damn old ThinkPads or giving insane amount of money to s76.

until it gets completely fucked due to a form-over-function cooling system and hits 101C (NBLK-WAX9X)

Power governor on balanced and somehow I'm at like 60c. Power governor on battery saving and it's like 45c. Sometimes it cools passively. This is not sh1ntel.
