So someone installed an entire operating system on their car's infotainment system and the specs read like a Pentium II from 1998. Single-core processor, "random overclocks" (which is code for "it thermal throttles whenever it feels like it"), zero multitasking capability, and it literally crashes into sleep mode. The cat's expression says it all. That perfect mix of pride and "I know this is terrible but I regret nothing." Running a full desktop OS on hardware that can barely handle a calculator app is peak engineer energy. Your car now boots slower than it accelerates. The "orange car OS" is likely a reference to installing Linux (probably Ubuntu or some custom distro) on automotive hardware that was never meant to do anything more complex than display a backup camera. Godspeed to whoever has to wait 45 seconds for their AC controls to load.
