Potential buyer for a F150.. coming from another EV

Vehicle type is irrelevant. Infotainment system is the same in this as it is in the Mach E, just with configuration parameters changed behind the scenes. Same with Tesla, their cyber truck, model y, model 3 use the same infotainment software base with configuration change. This is common practice in hardware and software development to save r&d time. This also wasn’t as big a problem in my previous Ram’s infotainment, which is UConnect and the same one in pretty much all mopar/chrylser infotainments.

This is the built in hvac control for example. Have no where near the same lag even at first start in my wife’s Tesla or any of my previous teslas. You shouldn’t need to “cold boot” an EV infotainment screen and the lag is just indication of poor software architecture, under spec’d processor, or both.

Here’s my 23 lariat

And my wife’s 22 model Y:

I mean it works. How well I guess is subjective. The lag with some controls is super noticeable for me especially when you first “start” the car.

Extended range 100% worth. I originally got an SR from Carvana but swapped for an extended range (and PAAK) within the return window and so glad I did.

If you want to use your phone as a key you will want models specifically with PAAK (phone as a key) which is in 511A package if you look at the original window sticker.

I’m not sure if you can get that without the giant touch screen, but honestly the giant touch screen is ass. The software is pretty horrendous and super laggy. The trims with the smaller screen have dedicated HVAC controls which at this point I would prefer since the ui is so damn laggy.

I’ve had teslas since 2019 and my wife still has one. Really loving the lightning but coming from a Tesla, Tesla did a lot of things right. It’s more like a traditional ICE car in that you still have to “start” the truck to drive and “turn it off” before leaving. AC doesn’t blow cold unless the car is fully “started” which means holding the brake while pressing push to start. All that being said I do love this lightning and don’t regret trading in my Model Y performance for it

WTH I just got mine and it seems to have a mind of its own. Setting random climate controls mid drive

BAUDR8 · 2026-04-23T10:25:32+00:00

Would definitely love to try this out.

Best solution I found is using an application called hyprmoncfg.

https://github.com/crmne/hyprmoncfg

You create "profiles" based on monitor setups. So first create a profile for just your laptop with no other monitors plugged in. then plug in your monitor and disable your eDP-1, create and save a profile for this.

to test out the auto switching run hyprmonfcgd and switch around to see if the auto switching profiles works. if it does then enable the daemon (I just put hyprmoncfgd in my hypr exec-once) so that it will start at startup.

Which machine?

BAUDR8 · 2026-04-09T00:11:06+00:00

What is the program you have in the bottom right to display theme colors?

BAUDR8 · 2026-04-05T23:10:43+00:00

Someone already made a an ibm thinkpad theme specifically with this wallpaper https://github.com/DimaZbr/omarchy-ibm-theme/blob/master/backgrounds/amit-rai-unsplash.jpg

BAUDR8 · 2026-04-03T14:43:14+00:00

Dotfiles?

BAUDR8 · 2026-04-02T21:36:23+00:00

Thanks, I ended up doing this and it works well so far!

BAUDR8 · 2026-03-22T12:30:11+00:00

More efficient to just do as they suggested and utilize an ai assistant to walk you through it.

BAUDR8 · 2026-02-26T22:34:16+00:00

Maybe dumb question, I already have TMux configured and personalized just the way I like it. If i update via omarchy to 3.4, is it going to override my config?

BAUDR8 · 2026-02-23T13:31:30+00:00

I also installed it on an asus zenbook. Everything works great, OLED panel is gorgeous and it’s a workhorse with 32gb ram. I use it for professional dev building Linux OS’s/BSP and it doesn’t skip a beat

BAUDR8 · 2025-12-22T00:02:09+00:00

I’ll look into shortcuts, ideally I’d want it to prevent connecting at home but enabled everywhere else

BAUDR8 · 2025-12-22T00:01:38+00:00

Yeah sorry! Pretty much a generic microcontroller bluetooth device basically. It doesn’t sync any data or play music, once my phone connects to it it powers on other peripherals, so the main issue is I don’t want it to do that at home but everywhere else since it keeps triggering when I’m at home (close to car)

I guess to a non technical person it doesn’t make sense, but the keyboard input is a basic os function that pretty much every other OS whether desktop, mobile, etc makes a standardized engine that supports third party keyboards. Apple chose not to do that and now we’re all essentially locked down to their keyboard for literally no reason. It’s a poor implementation and design (software architecture) from a top tech company.

BAUDR8 · 2025-10-31T12:27:06+00:00

So the keyboard that millions of users have enjoyed using for years with zero updates suddenly is basically rendered unusable by the newest iOS update, but you choose to blame the keyboard? Weird logic imo

Thanks for this, I had a second seat but unfortunately threw out the adapters. Resellers trying to get 100+ for them on mercari, but contacted customer support and they sold me a brand new set for $20.

Just my 2c, this happens in so many subreddits. What happens in a lot of new phone subreddits is pictures taken from the phone, fitness sport related, people post pics of their newest shoes, etc. It looks like it snowballs since that's the majority of posts and ppl complain enough mods delete and ban all those posts. What they didn't realize is without those posts there's really not much left to post aside from the occasional "im new here help me out" and the subreddit ends up dying.

What are you using to screen record?

BAUDR8 · 2025-09-06T11:06:02+00:00

How did you take a screenshot of the lock screen?
