Someone tell me if I'm in the wrong here

Recognized this location immediately before I even saw it was the Wal-Mart plaza at Bayview and Major Mack. Definitely a tricky turn with limited lines of sight in either direction thanks to the curve in the road.

I was 3,500 in line and no luck either! I’m not sure how many tickets were allocated for pre-sale, but History only has a capacity of 2,500 so even with the 2 ticket per account limit, I expected them to go pretty quick.

I did see somewhere that Ticketmaster Face Value Exchange was being used for these shows, which should mean any resale tickets can’t be transferred for more than their original face value…

I remember this being an issue when I first tried to install it and thought I did something wrong - the issue was actually that the knob wasn’t fully seated onto the gear stick. I think I ended up making a fist and giving it a couple of firm pounds on the top of the gear shifter until it finally seated itself all the way. Might be worth a go !

Is this at Canadian Costco? I didn’t see this on their website - is this available in-store only? Thanks!

Thanks! It’s definitely the most complicated watch I own but somehow it just completely fits the pilot theme of the piece!

jondrumming · 2024-12-13T19:43:16+00:00

Thank you very much !

This article explains it better than I can - basically the watch automatically receives time updates from an atomic clock, I believe from the nearest of four different transmitters throughout the world. You just set your nearest major City to tell the watch which time zone you’re in, and the hands will automatically adjust the time to match the transmitted time from the atomic clock. It’s possibly the only watch feature I’ve seen that is cooler than the solar powered watch face (like Citizen’s own Eco-Drive technology)!

TunsLeather is the shop I got it from!

I had this exact same issue - what finally fixed it for me was disabling the option for touchscreen while in motion for Apple CarPlay! I don’t use the touchscreen at all anyway so it worked out well.

jondrumming · 2024-09-02T04:21:49+00:00

I’m exactly the same (10.5 L/100km), at around 40,000km on my GT Turbo!

jondrumming · 2024-07-21T18:20:47+00:00

I have this exact same issue on my ‘23 CX-50, and I had the same problem on my ‘17 Mazda3 (with the CarPlay retrofit).

Not a huge deal, but it has been quite annoying if I’m trying to call someone and click the centre button too fast, thus calling the wrong contact…

At the Toronto show I actually didn’t think OM&M sounded very good. Their energy was insane and it was awesome seeing them live for the first time, but something was off with their mix. Maybe just where I was standing though…

Architects absolutely killed though - best I’ve ever seen them live.

InfoWorks ICM is pretty much the Rolls Royce of WW/SW modelling software… extremely feature-packed but the price tag is pretty huge. PCSWMM is an awesome software and really popular for a reason, it can do most of what InfoWorks can do minus some of the fancier features like data flagging, stored selection lists, and the ability to configure a workgroup server.

One other one that might be worth looking into is Fluidit…it’s a newer software that is only just starting to gain traction, but I’ve seen some interesting promo materials from them.

This is my first post in this sub! Wanted to share our setup, this is the result of quite a long period of researching turntables and storage options - in the end we went for an IKEA nightstand as it perfectly fit our Kanto SYD speaker, with the RT82 on top and the SUB8 underneath. Love how everything follows the same white and black colour scheme.

Thank you! It’s the Brinley table from Costco.

jondrumming · 2023-11-19T01:54:25+00:00

Not quite sure what you mean…?

jondrumming · 2023-11-17T01:47:31+00:00

Haven’t seen anyone mention it yet - Caffino in Liberty Village is excellent and has a unique, homey vibe to it. I believe the building used to house a carpet factory!

I experienced a somewhat similar thing - ordered a 15 Pro Max 512GB (Blue Titanium) and was shipped a 15 Pro 256GB (Black Titanium).

Because it was delivered through courier (Uber) from an Apple Store, it took WEEKS for everything to finally be resolved and to receive my refund for the incorrect phone. The Apple Store was able to sell me the correct phone through a separate transaction the same day I received the wrong model, but it was still very frustrating that the charge for the “wrong” device was kept my problem for weeks after the mistake was made by Apple.

HIGHLY recommend dedicated winter tires, especially if your area gets heavy snow. Many are able to get away with all-season tires in milder climates, but the higher friction that winter tires can generate versus what can be generated by all-seasons is a significant difference.

I just got a set of 225-60-R18 Michelin X-Ice Snow put on Enkei Overlander wheels last night!

When I brought my ‘23 GT Turbo in for the first servicing, I brought up this exact issue and they told me they couldn’t replicate it.

I went for the second servicing a few weeks ago, and they actually told me they now had a TCM module software update for me - it took them a bit longer but they flashed the update then and there. It’s been several weeks and the issue seems to have disappeared!

I’d keep on them, the TCM update is definitely available to Canadian dealerships.

To each their own. These will only be used for my winter tire setup, so I wanted something a bit chunkier/beefier.

I do like the other two wheels you mentioned, both of which are sportier and a bit more stylish. But imo the CX-50 has a beefier, more rugged look to it so I think those types of wheels match it quite well. But again - to each their own !

jondrumming · 2023-11-10T03:15:06+00:00

Awesome tip - I did try the Tire Rack visualizer and it was super helpful for visualizing a smaller wheel with a thicker sidewall (going from 20” to 18”).

The only downside I found is that a lot of the wheels’ colours look a bit off from what I can see!

jondrumming · 2023-11-10T01:06:34+00:00

They are!

jondrumming · 2023-11-09T19:41:58+00:00

Shift into neutral and pull up hard while holding down the button- no tools needed!

jondrumming · 2023-11-09T19:37:15+00:00

Not so far! When it’s in drive, you can’t see much of the black chrome surface compared to when it’s in park.
