Linux, but you can run Android apps once you root it :)
It's an excessively involved process at the moment, this individual managed it by using a common malware method, he imitated a legitimate OTA update but rewrote it to root the system. He was basically his own supply-chain-attacker: https://hackaday.com/2022/07/18/hacker-liberates-hyundai-head-unit-writes-custom-apps/
Didn't realize folks would want a proof-of-concept of HOW it was done.
If you want a proof-of-concept, like steps for how to do the thing, that's here: https://hackaday.com/2022/07/18/hacker-liberates-hyundai-head-unit-writes-custom-apps/
(This is the spirit of the post: Doom is a fun and silly demonstration of the software being hackable.)
That's the spirit!
Per the Cybertruck warranty:
"This New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover any vehicle damage or malfunction directly or indirectly caused by, due to, or resulting from...
... The environment or an act of God, including, but not limited to, exposure to sunlight, airborne chemicals, tree sap, animal or insect droppings, ... water, contamination, lightning and other environmental conditions"
So, if you get all bricked up in the car wash, you're now the proud owner of a $100,000 rust brick.
MotorTrend noted one middleman/dealership tripled the price on a very basic F-150 Lightning: https://www.motortrend.com/news/ford-f-150-lightning-ev-pickup-dealer-markups
Like, no product can survive that sort of scalper in the middle. Also, probably don't ask a middleman to sell a new product and sell the well-established alternative to the new product. Recipe for failure, cunningly cooked.
I have a Chevrolet Volt, same EXACT situation.
Back hatch doesn't unlock without power. So I got to contort my stupid ass over the back seats to get back there. Then you pull up the back bottom floor thingie, but god have mercy on your soul, it's impossible to do because there's no where else to put your body.
So yeah it was this whole Cirque Du Soleil act back there just to swap the battery.
Yeah, ditto. They're stating June for final pricing announcement, and targeting "mid-twenties" for price atm.
The original Pinto Madness essay is worth a read, even just as a historical primary source:
https://www.motherjones.com/politics/1977/09/pinto-madness/
Interestingly, you're right, I think. The Pinto wasn't uniquely lethal, it was a vehicle with an obvious design flaw that horrifically killed people, but in a class of vehicle where that was weirdly common at the time.
The uncommon thing was that Lee Iacocca put things into writing like "Safety doesn't sell" and actively de-prioritized safety, and THEN his Ford Motor Company pushed out the Ford Pinto.
But, w.r.t. the Tesla Cybertruck, the year is 2026, every single car on the road should be vastly safer than any 50-year-old subcompact deathtrap.
Treat yourself.
Slice it thin and fry it til it browns a little. Thank me later.
I drive the EV equivalent of a beater, and it's really pretty nice, everything on it works!
So yeah, silver linings, Tesla fans are losing their shirts by buying new, and anyone on the market for used is enjoying a buyer's market.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Figured I could trust you to find the link that says "WROTE A TUTORIAL."
