Sudo always asks for the password after some certain time.

Either it is the default password raspberry, or you have took your own one when you setup OctoPi (you use OctoPi?). I bit more information here would be very appreciated.

However, you need that password to log into CLI/SSH. So you should know it.

passwordless is an extreme security risk. it asks for the password of the user you are logged in as.

ive never had to use a password for sudo before , to log into ssh yes but not using sudo apt update after being logged into ssh .

It's the common behaviour of Linux.

Maybe you had same special settings before?
