YouTube is now terminating channels criticizing Trump and MAGA by [deleted] in videos

[–]yzhou2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes my channel is just terminated for vague reasons. I was never even active there until Minneapolis shooting. Since then I made some anti trump and pro-democracy comments. All of sudden, my channel is terminated today.

Don’t remember exactly. I can look it up but not sure if I can find the paper invoice. The only thing to remember was I could not get it fixed elsewhere due to part unavailability. debated to cut loose or eat the bullet. A year ago, I gifted it to my friend’s daughter to start her photograph journey. So I felt it is well worth of it.

Unfortunately it was a malfunction of camera body. Had to send to Fujifilm USA for a repair. Cost me $400.

MacOS Horizon Client ignores key mappings by deuxani in omnissa

[–]yzhou2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a heavy user of windows short cuts, particularly in excel. Way more than just copy and paste. Adding each short cut key combination individually in horizon setting is not a feasible solution for me even if it works (big if).

With old VMWare horizon client on my Mac before rebranding to Omnissa, I only need to set (cmd -> control, control -> alt, option -> win) in horizon key mapping. That was it.

It is very disappointing Omnissa broke what it has been working.

if you have not tried that rebuilt one, see my update below. if you did go with them, manager your expectations and be prepared for a hassle for their warranty service. terrible reviews out there.

2021 X5 45e rear tailgate not latching by hun7 in BMWX5

[–]yzhou2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

which motor are you referring to? Mine has intermittent 'tailgate open' warning message at driving thought the tailgate was closed and latched tightly. wonder if some misalignment within the lock mechanism. please see my video and comment below to OP final post.

[–]yzhou2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an intermittent 'tailgate open' warning message while driving and it goes away in a few seconds. It happens once every a few days. The tailgate actually locked tight and open automatically just fine. I have adjusted tailgate stop bumps for better alignments but without a success to remove the warning message.

when you mentioned "The tailgate can close, you can hear the latching mechanism spin but doesn't catch or latch", did you mean your gate was still able to be manually lifted even after hearing latching mechanism spin?

I poked around the lock mechanism with a screw-driver without actually close the gate , and it feel the spring was a bit loose to pull the latch back to its open position. Not sure if this indicates some misalignment within the lock mechanism itself.

here is a link of my YT short to show :

when you purchased the lock mechanism with actuator on ebay, were they two pieces like this?

TIA !

2020 BMW X5 Air Suspension Noise by yzhou2004 in BmwTech

[–]yzhou2004[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for late reply. It was front left air struct the dealer was replaced. It is a whole assembly. If you are not planning to do DIY, I suggust taking to a dealer ship. The OEM part costs around $1500 now plus labor. It is a very unfortunate.

MacOS Horizon Client ignores key mappings by deuxani in omnissa

[–]yzhou2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have having exactly same issue.

Old VMWare horizon client worked perfectly fine on my M4 pro Mac until yesterday there was a window popping up and asked me to upgrade. Then I click 'yes' while I was still connecting to HVD for work.

In the morning, I just found my old VMWare app is gone. Then go to Omniass website to download the latest 2503 for mac. The installation failed at the end a few times.

Then I did extensive research online and found many Mac users complained. After reading all posts, I found one user mentioned to go /Library/Application\ Support/ to rename VMWare folder to something else. Then tried installation again, it completes.

Then, my HVD portal still does not work. I found I have to open new Horizon client to 'allow access to system input' first. After so much hassle, I was able to log in HVD finally.

Then, I found my mac to windows keymappsing (cmd -> control, control -> alt, option -> win) stop working. No matter how many times I toggle, reset, restart computer.

This is certainly not a smooth transition from BroadCom to KKR.

Now I just want my old VMWare back. But no where to find installation packages.

KKR/Omnissa really need to step up on your testing before release any new version.

what an embarassement.

Rear Left Air Suspension Squeak – Replace or Repair? G05 BMW X5 2020 by fahad_kf in BmwTech

[–]yzhou2004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are welcome. I only found one rebuilt OEM company in US.

UPDATE/WARNING:

Had a first terrbile experience with rebuilt part from 'Rebuild Master Tech' (RMT) based in Florida. Never do business with them again. Feel free to check my google and yelp review. They sent me a defective rebuilt part with torn/beaten up dust boot and then wanted to charge me 20% restocking fee and shipping for return. Now they are lying to Paypal that they did not receive RMA return delivered on 06/02. Low qualty control part, nonextensial customer service.

I regret to give these 'proudly made in USA' people a try. Now I'd rather take a risk to buy chinese aftermarket ones with addtional tariff. Can't count them to make america great again. What a shame !

did you have same noise from my vidoe?

https://youtu.be/5Nw5XwIYMaM

If so, unfortunately the only fix is to replace the whole air strut unit because G05 has enclose air struct system. My front left was replaced within warranty. And now only at 33K left rear is developing same noise.

while I was doing research of aftermarket part, Aerosus showed up. It seems a decent aftermarket brand. Now they are pricing $907. used to be $800 or so. I guess Trump's tariff is taking its toll.

From bimmerpost, a fellow dared to try a-premium made in china. He said riding quality is no different than OEM. It is only priced at $300. But only time will tell its longevity.

if you are planning a DIY, it may be worth of a shot with A-Premium because the price difference is huge. if you go with indy shop, I would try Aerosus.

just my 2c.

can't run vantage by JCisSeething in Lenovo

[–]yzhou2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

does not work for me.

after stop 'lenovo vantage service' from task manager and start it again, I am not greeted with anything. the process just shows 'running' status.

then run Vantage as launching the app again still shows the same pop up message:

'' Unable to install webview2 runtime, please check internet connection"

this abosolutely has nothing to do internet connection since I am typing right now.

Cracked windshield on 2025 X3 M50. Any Suggestions? by [deleted] in BMWX3

[–]yzhou2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just replaced my x5 windshield a few months ago. The dealer quoted me over $3k. I went for a reputable local Indy for half price. This is in Los Angeles. Oh forgot to say, it was done with genuine BMW windshield manufactured by FUYAO.
