No, that's not what I said unfortunately. I said I get to the same page you posted, the one without the slider, so I don't see any way to remove it.

Searched high and low for a way around the restriction, can't even find a hack. an option that many are using is, switch to Bing.

All I can suggest is to continue to search the internet for ways to disable Google safe search. I'm not finding anything useful but maybe someone will come up with a way in the future.

The alternative is to use a different search engine.
