Today, Ford CEO Jim Farley announced that BlueCruise 1.4 was being rolled out by a new process, "borrowing" from Tesla. "This process was highly successful at Tesla for all sorts of decision-making, so we're immediately implementing it here at Ford.

First, we'll send you unnamed updates with descriptions like "small changes to make things better".

"Then, people will be selected to receive BlueCruise 1.4 via our new process:"



"Please be assured that if you have a long trip planned, we'll take that into account and be sure to roll this out to your vehicle right after you return from your trip."

I'm tired of waiting also, but enough with the parody threads.

To respond though, Big Bang Theory is the most unfunny sitcom ever. It's just laugh tracks added to mediocre comedy.

Let me take a stab at guessing your profession. Engineer? Scientist?

My son is an engineer. Hated the show. We watched it every week, and the reruns after dinner daily. One of the best comedies ever, if you ever knew an engineer or scientist. I know quite a few, and this show is like a mirror of their lives.

As to no more parody threads, I'll stop (maybe) when we get 1.4.

The fact that you have to stop and think before realizing this is satire hits a little close to home...
Mentioning a competitor prominently like that is a sure tipoff... Plus consider the poster...

I went to school with people like this. I've worked with people like this. My social circle has been composed of people like this. The depictions are accurate, but exaggerated like all stuff on TV. Some of the humor hit close to home. Oh so close. But I still found it hilarious, partially because of how well they managed to portray geek culture.

Engineer. Don't think that's the litmus though, my BIL is an engineer and loves the show.

I think it’s fair to keep posting parody until we get that update. Whenever that time is, it’ll be “even faster than anticipated”.

This summer or next, or the one after that. Maybe just say: some summer? A summer?

I'd be happy just to get the update that fixes the charge connector potentially welding to the car charge port. The only OTA for me so far in 2024 is the AM radio fix :rolleyes:
