is this what garry has been doing instead of running the forum
Musk went on to speak about some of the challenges that they’ve been facing, namely, storage size: “We didn’t anticipate having all these games there, so storage space will be a tricky one,” he says. “So you might have to decide what game you want to play, then it will download. So if you want to play other games, delete that one and download another one.” McCaffrey followed up with Cuphead developer Maja Moldenhauer, who indicated that Tesla reached out to her and her team to port the game, and that the only stipulation was that the game had “to play super, super clean... and that it had to control precisely.” It apparently requires a USB controller to use, rather than with the car’s touchscreen. It sounds as though Tesla’s aiming for “targeting a release date of later this summer,” and drivers will only be able to play the “Inkwell Isle One section of the game, due to the storage limitations.” tbh it sounds like you're better off just bringing a Switch
They still haven't patched the debugging that's killing the MCU's memory modules, but nah lets port games.
I can gaurantee you that they aren't expending the team assigned to the former to deal with the latter.
That would imply he could even make a good game...
Soon: "Mother gets in car accident, blames son's videogame downloads."
seems like given Tesla's imminent insolvency, licensing a game like this might appear to be a massive waste of money
It's just logging a shit load to syslog, so a one liner to filter it. Guessing they want to find a better way to deal with it.
Some context for those who didn't know about this before. In other words - they've got the usual set of logs for debugging, but they've also got logs for the Linux subsystem which they don't ever use and it ends up burning out the storage NAND chips. Once that's dead - your entire MCU is dead (black screen; no input) and has to be replaced at great cost to you (ranging from $300 up to $3k). All this because they haven't turned off Linux logging. There's a guy in San Fran who does this, and a whole bunch of people send their MCU boards to him just to extend the life of them else you're looking at 5 - 7 years of life before the MCU dies.
So they are making a game for a automobile that runs on Linux, but won't release it for Linux desktop. Ok.
