About 5 or so years ago, somewhere online....



Tesla Fluffers: Tesla rocks! Musk is our God!
Me: Riiight...I mean, they stick a glorified Ipad on the dash instead of putting in real automotive consoles.
TFs: Blasphemy! Those are NOT Ipads! Quit spreading fake news, asshole! They are sophisticated interfaces that will be the new automotive standard!
Me: Riiiight buddy. Keep telling yourself that shit.

Today:

Tesla Recalls Roughly 135,000 Vehicles Over Touch-Screen Failures
Tesla Inc. TSLA 0.26% is recalling roughly 135,000 Model S luxury sedans and Model X sport-utility vehicles over touch-screen failures, one of the electric-car maker’s largest-ever safety actions.

The move comes after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration requested a recall last month, saying the touch screen in some models can fail when a memory chip runs out of storage capacity, affecting functions such as defrosting, turn-signal functionality and driver assistance.

The agency said the problem affected roughly 158,000 vehicles, including Model S sedans built between 2012 and early 2018 and Model X vehicles made from 2016 through early 2018. The recall doesn’t cover vehicles in that group that have already been repaired with a larger memory chip or an upgraded touch screen, according to NHTSA.

Already know what the Tesla Fluffers here on Patnet will say in response. Shit like "So? All major car manufacturers have recalls like this" and other deflecting bullshit answers. Some will take this head on. Dunno if any will be moronic to bitch about me calling touch pad consoles 'glorified Ipads' like they did years ago. We'll see.

My reply to all of them ahead of time: "Just because you suck Musk's/Tesla's cock doesn't mean the rest of us do."

I never liked the slapped on ipad either. It looks shitty. Even the honda e (an electron rice burner) has a much nicer dashboard.

So it turns out that 160F isn't good for touchscreen computer electronics. You wouldn't leave your phone, tablet or laptop in a sweltering hot summer day.
Why would people expect that to survive it?

Can't Tesla just mail all those customers a new iPad to glue on top of the defective one?

Warranty work is pretty standard in the auto industry. Nothing to panic about.

I honestly prefer analog switches, toggles, buttons, etc. Digital display of info is fine, but I prefer to feel the input. Touchscreens annoy that shit out of me and is why I'll never use tablets and only use smartphones out of convenience. It's a music studio perspective. I prefer hardware and physically turning knobs over sliding a mouse fader in the box to get a sound I'd want.
