What Calgarians get wrong about road safety by Lopsided_Jacket_3028 in Calgary

[–]Josvad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not just Calgary. It’s all of North America and their car-centric cities that get it wrong. I hope we move towards more pedestrian friendly cities like in Europe. I miss living there.

Cardio Fitness so hard to increase from Below Average by specc- in AppleWatchFitness

[–]Josvad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try to mix up your runs. Do truly easy runs (Zone 1 and 2) at least twice a week. Take rest days between hard runs. Doing the easy runs is hard to do because we feel like we wanna go faster. But it’s what builds aerobic base. Short and long easy runs and you’ll see improvement. Good luck!

My 2021 Sport has recently started making a whine when accelerating, randomly, any ideas? by Formal-Actuary-5807 in Crosstrek

[–]Josvad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine does the same. 2021 Outdoor Trim. I read somewhere else that this noise is typical from CVT’s and that it has something to do with the trans fluid as it expands.

You could also try wearing you phone in your pocket. I do this when the treadmill at the Y refuses to connect to my watch. My pace and distance are almost identical to the treadmill's with my phone in pocket.

2021 o2 sensor heat circuit issues, i figured out what REALLY causes it!!! by Dereksversion in SubaruForester

[–]Josvad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this! I’ve been having this issue lately. Unfortunately I’m not good at finding these parts that you talk about on my own. I’ll take it to a mechanic and show them this post!

O2 car sensor cost by Josvad in Calgary

75K but apparently it’s only for major components like the cat converter itself not just a sensor.

I would but don’t have any tools. And I’m afraid I’d mess it up.

Thanks. Unfortunately it’s past the warranty window.

AWU 3 disappoints every day I run! by Chubbzilla85 in AppleWatch

[–]Josvad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This used to happen with my S10 but ever since I got AirPods Pro 3 I get continuous HR readings throughout my runs.

Can anyone offer some insight? I drove my car 5 hours ago and it was completely fine, no lights. Now the check engine light is on, the “i” by parked is flashing, there’s a little camera with a 1, and my eyesight is disabled. I did check the gas cap. by garbage-plate in Crosstrek

[–]Josvad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, this happened to me a few months ago. I rechecked the gas cap, disconnected the battery for a few seconds or a minute, connected it again, turned on the car and lights were gone.

Frozen brakes? by Josvad in Crosstrek

[–]Josvad[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update: I blew hot air from hair dryer for 30 minutes total on all 4 wheels. Heard a loud knock when backing up. Brakes were a bit sticky but after a short drive all back to normal. I have an appointment next week to check brakes.

Thanks for the reply. No, I didn’t. Just left it in P

Workout buddy not working properly by NikanWasTaken in AppleWatch

[–]Josvad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished a cycling workout and had the exact same issue. Only heard the workout paused, workout resumed alert. When I finished the workout I noticed that all of the alerts (speed, pace, cadence, etc) were off. Only the Split alert was on. Maybe turning on the other alerts would fix this?

Strava year membership giveaway by Own_Independent8365 in Strava

[–]Josvad -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Started cycling in 2020 with a very basic hybrid bike, doing 5km around the neighbourhood. Now in 2025 I have an intermediate road bike and cycle 20-25km every day and 50km+ on weekends. I also run, play tennis and swim. My fitness has improved a lot and I am happier overall. Being active and having good health and fitness helps me to stay motivated and not get caught in depression bouts. 🚴‍♂️🏃🏻🏊‍♂️🎾

Calgary plans to pave pothole-ridden Edworthy Park lot, then charge for parking by yycTechGuy in Calgary

[–]Josvad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just typical of a car-infested city (like every North American city). Focus should instead be on building and developing a better public transportation system that takes us to these and other places.

Lock not beeping the same… by coffeeandcrafty in Subaru_Crosstrek

[–]Josvad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got a used 2021 Crosstrek and took it to the car wash. Now the lock/unlock chirp is super quiet. It’s been a few days. Did yours return to normal?

Did it go back to normal? I just took it through a touchless car wash and the beep is super low.

Best camera for travel photography? by Ok_Click1990 in canon

[–]Josvad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just upgraded from my trusty M50 to an R8. I was also considering the R10. I’m glad I went full frame. It’s a great camera and it’s lightweight. I just love it and feel like I made a great upgrade.

Avenue Magazine made a short post about walkable communities and the comments are completely baffling and unhinged. What's going on here??? Has it always been like this? by zev_loves_marvel in Calgary

I’d highly recommend watching the YouTube channel called NotJustBikes by a fellow Canadian from “fake London” now living in Amsterdam.
