I too enjoy not answering people’s questions and instead suggesting things that don’t work. There isn’t any alt text for the a lot of apps people use.

Reminds me of this

Will a wifi SD card or adapter work? And then you can get any digital photo frame

Got angry when I saw the title and came here to start calling bullshit but I’m glad that it’s already been handled.

That would be a next level bamboozle but if it were true I’m wouldn’t even be mad.

If they came out and said this is what we did, I would donate to them just because of how gangster that move is

Genuine question, where in Canada are you getting that price and is that including the Demand charge?

Cheap power in Canada is something I would genuinely be interested in

I want to see the full report. They have cherry picked the positive point and added some small concessions to make it sound more credible.

I doubt the actual report is as positive as this or if it is I have my doubts that staff were open and honest when interviewed because they didn’t want lawyers hearing about workplace bullying and sexual harassment they have committed.

LOL. Admittedly only after I DuckDuckGo’d an explanation

Meme too sophisticated, it’s a 5 out of 7 at best.

How are you supposed to stream snipe if you don’t have twitch open?

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.

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.

I have used Macs for the last 15 years, so this is from someone who is deep into the ecosystem.

Apple can fuck right off with their pricing, Mac sales aren’t down because the market is challenging, Mac sales are down because they cost too much.

Give me an affordable Mac and I would have bought two or three in the past few years. Instead I keep holding out.
