- Comment on How do I make a domain account on Windows have administrative privelleges to use a particular app? 1 week ago:
You need to put the domain user in the local administrators group. Easiest way to do this is through the Computer Management MMC snap-in.
It’ll give full admin rights over the local computer though - You can’t just give admin rights to one program AFAIK.

- Comment on Nintendo Music – Announcement Trailer 1 month ago:
It’s a bit odd, but it only needs the basic subscription. It’s fair enough, I guess, gives a bit of extra value for the subscription. I can see why they wouldn’t want to give access to their entire music library for free.

I suspect there should be something using the IGDB API, if not it ought to be possible to make one. I found this (I didn’t try it) but it’s not quite what you want: github.com/omoosey/video-game-calendar

- Comment on Revolut customers say e-money firm failed them after being scammed - BBC News 2 months ago:
If it’s all authorised like this, it is technically a legit transaction. Revolut should have flagged it up for review though as per the article. I think card transactions are a bit different, as usually they don’t need to be authorised in the app, but this sounds like he spoke to a scammer, transferred them some money, handed out a 2FA code (something which banks always say “don’t give this to anyone, not even us”), and then was surprised when lots of money was transferred out of his account. I’m not sure Revolut are at fault here.

Interesting, thanks!
- Comment on Do rotating plates in microwaves help when heating food? 2 months ago:
Yes, it does. Without the plate you will get hot and cold spots where the waves interact. If you don’t have a rotating plate you should be manually rotating the food, unless there’s some new tech I’m not aware of.

- Comment on How do you set up wake up alarm and not miss it ? 3 months ago:
- Increase alarm reset difficulty. The more you have to conciously engage your brain to reset your room to sleep mode, the harder it will be for your brain to automate the snooze button. Put your phone across the room, use an app that continues to scream until you scan a QR code in another room or solve math problems, make a deal with your partner that they get to spray you with cold water unless you correctly answer these riddles three, anything. Make it difficult for your brain to remain in sleep mode when your alarm goes off.
To add to this, you can get alarm clocks that literally run away when they go off so you have to chase or find them, and others that have a bit of a puzzle to solve to switch them off (I suspect there are phone apps that also have the latter, but I’ve never looked for them)
- Comment on How do you set up wake up alarm and not miss it ? 3 months ago:
I have an alarm clock with two alarms on it. The first is radio, at a reasonable volume. The second is beep Beep BEEP with ascending volume. If the first doesn’t wake me the second will. Unless I press the off button and fall back to sleep.
I’m amazed the clock with the bell doesn’t wake you (if you mean one of the traditional alarm clocks with the bells on?). Those things are LOUD.
As sound isn’t working, maybe try one of those “silent alarms” which just turns a light on to help you wake up naturally (I haven’t tried these and would definitely have a beeping alarm as a backup!), or something like a Fitbit which can wake you up by buzzing on your wrist (and will adjust when it wakes you to match your sleep cycle)

This is me 🙁 So many times I get stuck in a game and I don’t like looking at walkthroughs but if I think I’ve tried everything I will. Every time it’s either something I’ve already tried and didn’t work, or I’ve completely missed a path to a new area somehow.
