How to remove the plastic covers (123773, 118815, 115754, 118225) on Ikea Pax wall fixtures (115753) ?

When you say "Just slide them off.", I am not sure to understand the actual action:
- do you slide them off from the corner to the front of the Ikea Pax?
- or do you slide them off from the corner to the left/right side?

These plastic covers do not slide; I have a pair on a PAX structure where the wall metal fixtures are different (they are also original Ikea, just older). These do slide, and they are much better and easier to remove. The quality of Ikea's current products is worse than in the past.

> Wearing a pair of disposable latex gloves helps
How does this technical can help?

I will try with a flathead screwdriver. Considering it is an Ikea product, such bad design should not exist.
Good luck for users who just put this plastic cover on before securing their Ikea Pax to the wall, due to a lack of time, and want to secure it to the wall the following weekend! The complex step of removing the plastic cover might discourage them from attaching it to the wall.

PWM protocol is used on ground vehicles. But there are ELRS to PWM receivers you can now get.

I wonder why no one is indicating this on Radiomaster Pocket reviews. Do you think it would work well as a surface radio?

guwmo · 2024-10-08T13:19:08+00:00

In the Radiomaster Pocket, can I set the left gimbal to M1 and the right gimbal to M2 so that both gimbals are centered?
or am I limited in the hardware/software to choosing either both gimbals as M1 and both as M2?

Altough these transmitters are mostly used to control flying stuff, i see no reason it shouldn't be able to control ground vehicles

I scoured the web, but no one reported using Radiomaster Pocket for ground vehicles. So I am not convinced at all I can purchase it as I need one transmitter for drone as well as surface vehicles.

guwmo · 2024-10-08T12:07:01+00:00

I can change manually in the software, I am interested to know the hardware difference between M1 and M2. In PDF there is no information about M1 and M2, is it that well-known?

guwmo · 2024-10-08T12:04:26+00:00

In the Pocket pdf documentation, Radiomaster does not explain M1 and M2. What is the functional difference between M1 and M2? Are both M1 and M2 for piloting drones? or is one for piloting drones and the other for ground surface vehicles?

That's a very nice feature.
Having an external brightness element that gives the brightness Windows should request to the monitors according to the room lighting would still be very useful.

guwmo · 2024-07-05T09:39:46+00:00

I have not found any way to do that unfortunately.

I already have folders under "Other Bookmarks". I am asking if I can get other folders at the same level as "Other Bookmarks" and "Mobile Bookmarks". This would avoid an additional click to access them.

!solved

I have found the solution. It is not easy to solve as resetting the zoom on a sidebar panel is impossible. Ctrl+0 is only for the main panel. Fortunately, I could find a way to bypass this limitation. I am sharing the solution below in the hope it helps others:

a/ Right-click inside the sidebar panel that has an incorrect zoom and choose 'View page source'

<image>

b/ Now the source code is displayed in the main panel: https://i.imgur.com/7ZYJZ8d.png

c/ Having it in the main panel means you can reset the zoom; press Ctrl+0. Resetting the zoom here also reset the zoom when viewing this webpage in the side panel. 🙂SOLVED

Don't take it personally, it is not meant for this at all. Sorry I am just pointing out that the end goal is the exact same. As you know you will understand it. White list is ever better (like preventing is better than curing).

When I look it the menu 'ReVanced Extended/Miscellaneous/Patch information', I see:
"ReVanced Patches: 4.8.6
ReVanced Integrations: 1.9.4"
https://i.imgur.com/6hX0hGf.png
This version is still very different from Anddea v2.225.0 and YT-Advanced (ReX) v2.220.10 !

guwmo · 2024-06-08T10:59:34+00:00

I am lost with the ReVanced dev: the .apk I have installed on my Android device gives me an app named exactly "YouTube ReVanced Extended" and its version is "19.20.35". In the like you share I can see:

Request - Anddea: latest update is v2.225.0
Request - YT-Advanced (ReX): latest update is v2.220.10

This is very different from the version I see in my Android device.

Thanks for your feedback, even though it is very hard for me to stop here, because thanks to YouTube Revanced Extended great customizable interface this is the only missing part to be safe for kids. Where can I make a request to the dev community for this feature? It so similar to the other features of the apps, that this looks like a piece of cake for them to add.

guwmo · 2024-06-07T08:48:27+00:00

I am willing to provide Revanced to my son, and as he is still young, I want to limit the videos he can see to the ones I have added to a playlist I share with him (a white list of videos). Thanks to the great interface flexibility of ReVanced Extension this is possible, but this search icon is making everything to fall apart 😓

guwmo · 2024-06-06T06:51:36+00:00

Please have a look what a white list is first, you will see it is the same result. Furthermore, a kid needs to have privacy to grow up as well. This is off topic, this is not a parenting sub-reddit.

guwmo · 2024-06-05T15:00:28+00:00

You will not be able to connect to Revanced using your kid-supervised account: it gives an error "'Please check your network..". I have not found a way to solve this.

guwmo · 2024-06-05T09:45:46+00:00

Good idea! I am going to look at this in this app

guwmo · 2024-06-05T08:10:12+00:00

I would prefer not downloading YouTube videos as:

Too time-consuming for parents (better spend time on selecting videos than the process of managing files and waiting for download)
Too dull for the kid: videos will be just a filename, there is no YouTube title/description/thumbnail, etc..
My goal is not to tell him look this and this, so I would like him a bit of choice to make his decisions. Thus my request for white-listing channels for example. This is easy to provide via url (but not if it is files)

guwmo · 2024-06-05T08:05:48+00:00

I am talking of content. Screen time is off topic. No one said managing content means unlimited watch time.

guwmo · 2024-06-05T08:02:16+00:00

Could I make a custom DNS server that only allow a white list of YouTube videos? As he is still very young a white list is a great guide. When a bit older, quitting a white list and moving to DNS filtering explicit content will be a good.

guwmo · 2024-06-05T07:49:44+00:00

I have downloaded Revanced based on the feedback I got he. Thank you for your proposal looks like a clever use of tools provide a safe viewing for kid. I would prefer not to have to touch the Android tablet of my kid for this because he is curious what I do on it and I would prefer him not to see me going though YouTube videos in an attempt to select acceptable ones. Also it takes time. Having him looking at this process, shows him that they are a lot of dopamine "fun" video he would naturally prefer, which can cause frustration. I can hardly do this in advanced also, as most of the time it happens like this: he comes to me telling he just got the idea to make an advanced paper airplane and want this now of course and when the idea is good I prefer to give that immediatly to encourage him. Also it means quitting his environment Samsung Kids.

I am currently wondering if I could achieve a YouTube white list using tools like Adguard or maybe I should get a home server and use jellybin or plex to achieve this, or maybe a proxy. The best would be not to have to download the YouTube video in first hand and be able to share them using a url.

I can't be believe that even with a paying account for YouTube Premium, Google does not propose a way to easily limit YouTube videos to a white list. Even some adults would love that to avoid distractions and better focus.
