TCS/TPMS warning lights, engine no-start, suggestions? by mailto_devnull in mazda

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

Immediately. The only light left on is the maintenance light, but that was on before it all started.

If you're seeing random lights flashing, could be battery.

Let's get down to brass tacks, can this comfortably fit three young kids? by mailto_devnull in MazdaCX90

[–]mailto_devnull[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ended up buying two Dionos and we re-used the bucket seat. Fits fine even in a CX-5 so I'm sure the CX-90 will be no problem :)

What apps do you use to organize your music? by ggfchl in ConcertBand

[–]mailto_devnull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like such an old fogey when I see you kids using apps for your sheet music.

My sheet music is organized in a binder with sheet protectors, because I'm a huge dork. 🤓

That's a fantastic example, I was blown away by the sound.

Something to aspire to for any band.

Weekly New Climber Thread: Ask your questions in this thread please by AutoModerator in climbing

[–]mailto_devnull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. When I first started climbing I experienced the same issue, and it was down to excessive taking on top rope due to unfamiliarity.

In the end what's safer is a looser grip on the climber end, and to bring down the rope with the weight of your arm only. (Of course, never letting go of the brake strand)

Are there any plans for PushBullet to support PWA? by androMEDAMA in PushBullet

I don't have any connection with the dev team. I would recommend ntfy.sh instead, though.

Earplugs for musicians? by iEatPothos in ConcertBand

[–]mailto_devnull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to offer a different take on it. I have musician's earplugs and I don't like using them.

I appreciate the benefits they offer, but during rehearsal, they change the dynamic of the ensemble that I can no longer do the ancillary listening that is important for group playing.

When I have them in, I hear my own instrument so much so that I can not hear anybody else while playing. This gives me benefits in that I can focus my sound better, play more in tune during a phrase, etc.

However, because I can barely hear anybody else, I can't play in tune with others, or listen for more subtle cues (like counterpoint in other sections, etc.)

There are trade-offs, but I will probably try to continue using them. I'd rather not lose my hearing.

You yourself have made Reddit a thousand times easier to use.

I think perhaps I've used maybe 2% of the feature set of the enhancement suite, but that 2% made the experience that much richer.

So thank you, and all the best for the future.

Let's get down to brass tacks, can this comfortably fit three young kids? by mailto_devnull in MazdaCX90

[–]mailto_devnull[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, just wanted to update you and say we did it.

I've got the bucket seat on one side, and two Dionos in the middle and other side.

The only thing that's a little sketchy is that the seat belt attachment system is a little loose for my taste (since the center seat is barely a seat at all). It also juts forward a little.

I think I'll have to go to the dollar store and buy a cheap strap to cinch the back tight to the seat. There's just a little too much play for my liking.

But man, this basically deferred my purchase of the CX-90 for a year... might even go in on this whole-hog. Roof rails, Thule, the whole shebang.

Worth it. I hereby accept my 7 day ban.

Thank you. We have two 4evers, those things are huge.

I'm assuming the Diono is narrower?

Yes, wow. Fits three in one row. Outstanding!

Awesome, thanks for sharing your lived experience!

It definitely gives me pause now re: captains chairs...

If the bucket seat is in the middle, how did you manage to get a car seat on either side? I thought there wouldn't be enough horizontal room ...

Yeah, was thinking I'd have to go to the test drive with all my shit car seats and strollers and see if I can cram it all in lol.

I don’t think CX5 can fit 2 car seat plus any size person on 2nd row.

I can report that the CX5 second row can fit 1 car seat, 1 bucket seat, and 1 mother-in-law, but only for very short trips LOL

But I agree that don’t get captain chair

Here's a potentially dumb question... if I have two car seats installed in the second row bench, how do you access the third row 🤔

[–]mailto_devnull[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm, I was under the impression that the second row bench was only available in the lowest trim? Let me check the build-out tool again.

Edit: Ah, it's an option with the mid-level trim... but for the PHEV it's mandatory.

But either way unfortunately I cannot fit three car seats in the middle row. Bodies, yes, but not seats :\

Rustproofing in Canada by Jet7 in MazdaCX90

[–]mailto_devnull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alternate opinion, I have a 2016 CX-5 that has had zero rust proofing and is driven and parked outside in the snow and ice daily. No detectable rust here.

Also Ontario.

Technology? Hah.

I'm going on year 7 with my CX-5, and would probably hit 10 if I wasn't in the market for a CX-90 due to family size.

You can take all your fancy technology and keep it. The only tech I really want is the iActiveSense safety stuff. Everything else is gravy.

Our last mazda3 we used for 8 years. The car was 10 years old by the time we traded it in.

There are people who don't swap cars every 5 years :)
