Thank you for this response. I can agree with this perspective.
My comments were, “hey, let’s be a little more level headed about this” and less “this company should die and heads should roll”.
If I have offended you, that wasn’t my intent. You seem defensive about what I said but I wasn’t trying to upset you.
I said broken monitors don’t necessarily affect the rest of the system. Just like, you know, broken infotainment systems don’t necessarily affect the rest of the car. Can happen sometimes, doesn’t seem to have happened this time. So yes what you are implying is that magic is happening when it clearly didn’t and to sit here and say it will definitely affect other systems misleading.
People make mistakes, it’s unavoidable but the fact that they are willing to admit it was their fault, shows an attitude of learning and growth and is a welcome change from norm, where companies sweep it under the rug and it costs people lives.
Will they probably grow to a point where they are too big to give a shit, probably. At least for now they are being open and honest instead of blaming the user or a third party.
We don’t live in a vacuum, the world isn’t black and white. Come live in the grey and cut people some slack.
So if I’m understanding this correctly. If anyone ever rolls out a software update that causes a failure like this it is instantly a sign that the company has a culture that leads to problems. Hard and fast? No exceptions? No one makes a huge mistake, that’s just a mistake that slipped through the cracks?
As for it being connected to the CAN bus, so what? It isn’t some sort of magical system where if something fails all the rest of the connected systems do too. That’s like saying if the monitor on my computer fails and it’s connected to the rest of my computer via the PCIe lanes on my graphics card, then everything else is going to be affected. It doesn’t work like that.
I don’t even have an opinion on the company I just don’t think it’s the end of times because the wrong build rolled out. They fucked up, they owned up to it and based on the response they will learn from it.
Ok, calm down. Seems like a bit of an overreaction to link a bad software update for an infotainment system to “countless unknown dangers”
They screwed up, it happens to the best of us. There isn’t a company on the planet that hasn’t made a mistake and rolled out something that is broken.
What’s important here is that they said “yep, we fucked up, we are prioritizing fixing this problem for customers” instead of trying to hide it or blaming the customer for the problem.
If anything Rivian should be applauded for how they handled it and if this kind of thing continues to happen, then maybe we get the pitch forks out.
Are you a wizard? How did you know? It’s like you peered into my soul.
Coleslaw is fucking awesome you godless piece of shit.
They’ll find some way to make it cumbersome and difficult to use so that no one bothers.
I don’t get why more people don’t understand this. There is literally no way Apple is going to ditch iMessage or open it up voluntarily.
I love being objectified, it’s so hot. Treat me like a filthy object
The ducks at the park are free. Like you can just take them.
Inside the apple ecosystem the iPhone can also be used as a flash drive. Between airdrop, connecting it directly to my mac and iCloud Drive I have never once not been able to get files on or off my device (with no need for third party apps I might add)
You mentioned side loading. What are you side loading? Give me examples of what you’re installing? I want a compelling reason to ditch my iPhone so I’m not paying what amounts to the cost of a computer every few years.
This is a genuine question that I’ve asked android users and never had a response that isn’t vague and hand-wavy.
What things do you do on your android device that can’t be done without a jailbreak in the apple ecosystem? I’m looking for things beyond visual changes or things that a user would only use once in a blue moon.
I would love a better understanding, please and thank you

LOL! This is the best comment I have read about this whole fiasco.
Can someone find when it was used to host adult content? The domain was owned by the company that became PayPal and then Musk bought it from them and pointed it to The Boring Company website.
Maybe I missed something in the Wikipedia article but I can’t see anything to indicate it was anything of the sort.
Also wouldn’t they block twitter based on the amount of adult content on there too?
Thank you for answering the question like a helpful person instead of just instantly posting “you’re wrong and you should use this instead”
It’s so frustrating when someone doesn’t understand that there are constraints that OP hasn’t included because it’s not relevant to the question.
