Finally Lenovo gave in and we don't need the community hack ( https://github.com/fiji-flo/x1carbon2018s3 ) anymore! Thanks for all the support and contributions to this project.

This headline was very confusing, since Googling S3, for context that doesn't involve AWS is nearly impossible.

Favorite search result:

Googling "bios s3 suspend" gave me good non-AWS results.

I have the 6th gen X1, but still using Windows, and still its behavior bugs me a little bit --

I almost never really shut down my laptop (does anyone?) -- I simply close and open the lid. Annoyingly, the X1 still wants to persistently be connected to my Airpods via bluetooth. So lid close doesn't actually put it on sleep suspend, it's some other weird middle suspend mode which is not really suspended at all.
