OFFICIAL BUTTON WATCH

[Harmanx]

Bro, his name is Amen. Clearly he is Jesus. Need I say more?

Just google "Amin" and you'll see how well loved and trusted he is

Meant no disrespect

 

[GeoffEV]

Ok...PST, right? See y'all at 0300! Zzzzz

 

[linux-works]

Yeah but to be fair I would gladly pull all nighters as an engineer on that team because I would find it incredibly interesting.

not if it goes on for extended periods of time. and if you have to deal with a lot of stuff that just plain wears you down.

 

[Ramphex]

Is it midnight in pacific or central where Texas is? Lol

Yeh, that kind of thing has a short life span.

Nope, 1 or 2 hours for Texas and 3 hours for California

Hard to tell when the power is out

I’m not really sure what to make of this since he is allegedly a Tesla AP SW engineer. Maybe a recent hire?

These tweets are odd from an employee. Also thought it was kind of not allowed.

Or he used to be? Might make more sense I guess.

I guess this thread will crash in 2.5 hours.

Just in case, I'm only having one Friday beer. Might need to go around driving in empty roads like my grandma driving to Sunday church.

As long as your grandma doesn't drive like my grandma did. I don't think she would qualify for beta, but she would be using launch mode at ever stop light Her last car had a turbo and she made sure it got used.

I was wondering which midnight the big button release is supposed to drop lol

People are looking for The Button. If you believe that @verygreen has good ability to find the "hidden" button feature (to allow them to turn it on without a software update), then it is not actually "there" yet for many users. So, maybe a software update is still needed to allow them to turn on the button, for some people. Hard to say. I'm screwed; I'm on 2021.24.11. Way behind. Unless there is a way to hide features from @verygreen.

The Button Watch continues.

If you're "way behind" on 2021.24.11, what does that make me?? 2020.48.37.6! MCU1/HW3 w/"FSD"

I was just joking since someone sarcastically compared him to Jesus -- but the first hit when googling the name is about "Idi Amin," the evil, murderous dictator.

But reading through his tweets, they're impressive at first -- but odd, like you say, after looking through a bunch of them. Seems like a real SW team member giving these details would get them in trouble with the company if it was genuine. A smart, informed Tesla nerd could cook up the things he's saying. He might be legit, but who knows.

Watch all TMC take their car out midnight and fail the first days driving.

The Button Watch continues.

I'm on the same version, but thought that might be a good indication, since 2021.24.11 and 2021.24.12 are the last versions that only went to U.S. owners (from what I gather from TeslaFi) -- and the button is only being made available in the U.S. at the moment. All the more recent updates went to various other countries as well.

 

[Harmanx]

Nothing from anybody in an hour and a half. They must have all said to hell with it and gone to sleep,

...Or got updated and FSD is driving them around while they drink celebratory champagne in the back seat.

 

[AlanSubie4Life]

This aligns with some of the suggestions of how this might happen here earlier. Anyway, the wait continues:
