D’oh!
Tesla Ranger came and replaced the 12V and that cleared the error and so I went and did the install and now my car has V9. I got to drive with V9 for the first time this morning.
Hold on, I must hurl.
. . .
Ok I’m back. No, wait, more hurling.
. . .
Bleah. I will try to continue but it’s difficult.
What I really wanna know is what happened at Tesla when they originally put V9 out there, a or b or c:
a. The entire heroic UI/UX team had fought bitterly against it, but some puggled numpty (Elon? Franz?) overruled and ordered it shipped, so full UI/UX team immediately resigned, or,
b. Full UI/UX team of plookie tossbags invented this mess and despite rest of company fighting valiantly to halt its release, UI/UX tossers fought even harder to get it out and some numpty (Elon? Franz?) relented and so it shipped, rest of company including all the engineers and product people and finance people and HR and the admins and PR people snd yhe legal team and all the employees at factories and stores and service centers immediately resigned en masse, or,
c.Same as b except nobody resigned, they were all too scared to speak up about what a howlin’ pile of glaikit keech V9 is.
I mean holy crap. You just do not DO this with a car’s UI! You do not DO this to customers, especially operators of a vehicle! Imagine Boeing shipping new UI to the screens inside their jets’ cockpits. FAA would go ape-sh**. Pilots would refuse to fly. Even Apple would not ship such a disruptive upgrade to customers.
Consider me somewhat disappointed.
You’re very lucky. You don’t want this so don’t attempt to download it. It’s far worse that V8. My guess is that they put some very young techies on this, who’ve very rarely driven the car but developed a design “theory’ about how the touchscreen should work. It’s a failed theory. And it’s not even a regression, it’s a totally failed “innovation.”
