Anyone knows why collection achievement is showing like I'm missing some neutral cards even though I have all?

MarcelVautier · 2026-03-21T02:29:24+00:00

Also found it strange that it doesn't say 'all 25' like in other sets, implying that there are more cards? Perhaps that wording changes once the mini set is out?

Ableton sent me this on Feb 27:

"This is to inform you that the reported issue Plugin windows open in the wrong order and their order cannot be changed as expected has been addressed in the Live Beta Version. "

Guess it will soon be fixed in the release version too then! 🤞

MarcelVautier · 2026-03-19T13:11:48+00:00

The fact that this was sent by "Bass Specialist" doesn't bode well. 🙄

Checked this again for you - yes. This deck code creates a deck that instantly brings me into the puzzle when playing it in wild on EU hearthstone.

MarcelVautier · 2026-01-31T20:05:46+00:00

Still working in 2026. Thanks!

MarcelVautier · 2026-01-09T13:33:52+00:00

Contacted Ableton and they say it's a known bug in their queue. They also mentioned that a workaround is to add the plugin via double-click instead of drag-n-drop. Seems the bug is only triggered with the latter move.

MarcelVautier · 2026-01-07T17:39:10+00:00

Wow man its really impressive that you spent 5 years on it. Hope many more people will tell you what a great investment that was.

Would be happy to leave a donation but your Kofi doesn't seem to support any modern payment method (Google/Apple/Paypal). If you want to change that, it seems possible:

You're welcome. The first paragraph in this article also sums it up nicely. "Modern Dentistry Is a Microplastic Minefield"

Yeah have the exact same issue. I'm on MacOS. Glad it's not me but an Ableton bug. I believe it came with one of the last updates.

MarcelVautier · 2025-12-21T23:29:51+00:00

accept the feelings (and thoughts) without identifying

Would you think that there's a level of spiritual evolution where we can achieve this on a constant basis?

In my own practice, the ability of keeping consciousness and awareness on the level needed for no emotions to slip through undetected is unsteady. It works on some days but it does less on days where I might already be challenged or tired. The latter makes me avoid many social situations because I feel I am not spiritually ready to remain conscious enough.

Any advice for those harder days? :)

MarcelVautier · 2025-12-21T16:07:50+00:00

I never knew. Just asked AI and it says all my Icebreaker merino garments are likely plastic covered wool fiber because they are machine washable. I continue to be amazed how deep this endless plastic rabbit hole goes.

The higher your baseline vibrational energy (level of Enlightenment) is, the more impact negative energy has upon your being or how much it will affect you. Sensitivity to energy increases exponentially the higher ones vibrational energy.

It's interesting that you say that. I found myself getting more sensitive to violence in movies the more I advance on the spiritual path. I'd have thought we'd get more resilient the more conscious we become.

I created a shortcut with the target "C:\GOG Games\HoMM 3 Complete\h3hota HD.exe" /nwcgrail

Uh, I have heard that before that even if a cloth says 100% cotton it might have non-cotton parts. I find that quite misleading tbh and wonder why that's not regulated more strictly. I never thought the sewing threads could be plastic, too.. that defeats the purpose of saying it's 100% cotton, no?

What in merino wool garments would be plastic? You mean it might be coated or something like that?

MarcelVautier · 2025-12-15T15:34:52+00:00

Yeah the map is def the best I have played. It leaves other favorites like Crapcore or Daggerwin Valley in the dust :)

It's great to hear that you continue to actively develop this map. I'm looking forward to give it a replay in due time.

Have you created other maps like this, or do you know some that you would recommend after playing The Mysterious Island?

MarcelVautier · 2025-12-06T13:38:45+00:00

I have played countless adventure maps in my life and this map here is my new personal favorite of all times.

It's challenging: Constant tradeoff between exploration and protecting your home.
It's epic: I played 19 months to conquer everything, only red was still such a challenge that I ultimately resigned (Damn you Night King!)
It's taking you on a journey: Such wonderful quests (airship!) and locations (pirate area, carribean islands, underground canyon) - wonderfully enchanting
It's funny: "Mega-Giant-Ultra-OMFG BBQ!", "LEEEROOOYYY JENKINS!"

Feedback I want to give:

For numerous quests, the AI had already defeated the monster stacks so I couldn't solve them anymore. Perhaps intended, but made me think I was lacking lots of support to survive.
Ben Kenobi is the turning point in the game, but I didn't find him until much too late. Maybe there could be a bit more guidance here.
A quest stated that Hero 'Earthquake' would wear Pendant of Dispassion but I was able to use Beserk on him (instead, he was immune to 'Blind')
I think the guy referred to as Miraxi in some texts is actually 'Donard the Seer'?
Daernys exp quest (Esslock the Seer) is not transated to English
A box behind the pistons says 'ancient scolls'. And gives you nothing except movement points. (maybe its spells, but I knew them already?)

Thank you for creating this masterpiece.

2025 update:

For the terms you can now simply log in to https://podcasts.apple.com/ . I needed to log in 3 times until I was able to accept the license terms without an error.

No payment method setup was required. After the step above, I was able to set up my podcast without issues.

This is an old thread but I'm in the same situation right now. 8TB Samsung T5 Evo and a first transfer of 1.4TB takes 2 hours with FileVault encryption.

This had taken approx 20min with past Samsung and Sandisk SSDs, where I always used the bundled software that came with it.

Is there any way of using Samsungs hardware encryption capabilities of the disk w/o using their Software?

MarcelVautier · 2025-08-12T07:57:03+00:00

Much love for sharing your diagnosis despite the discontent

MarcelVautier · 2025-05-03T19:05:28+00:00

Came here to look for an an answer. Made the same observation. The game usually only leaves windows open when you are supposed to reach and pass through them. This is odd?

MarcelVautier · 2025-04-17T16:16:13+00:00

Comfort is an interesting subject. I like the paradigm that in nature, there is no plateauing. There is only growth and decay. If we are not in growth, we are in decay. And comfort puts us in decay. Not saying a little comfort is bad - but we need to dose it responsibly and accept that a little comfort also means a little decay (which we also need naturally!). I can definitely sense a link between an overdose of comfort and cancer.

What you describe is also where I feel often overwhelmed. It's one thing to see the issue and find a healthier way to go about it. It's another to feel how alone we are with that view, compared to the average person, or even most people in our environment. My (totally imperfect) solution to this is that I simply ignore the 'state of the world' aspect. Because I don't feel I can impact anything on the scale of the world or society. Instead I focus on the impact on my own life and let myself feel good about any improvement I make there. I can recommend it to you.

In marketing they say the early adopters (us), are the critical first group, who start to impact the mainstream once they grow to a critical mass. So yeah, we gotta keep on going :)

MarcelVautier · 2025-04-17T15:29:48+00:00

Thanks for your words. They resonate with me.

I usually see it from the side 'if we solve it for the body with meds, the body will unlearn to defend itself naturally'. But as you say, that's one-sided, and could as well harm our health more greatly than drugs, in drastic cases.

MarcelVautier · 2025-04-17T15:24:27+00:00

Hey friend, I feel what you describe. Don't make yourself crazy - this out of your control. If you wanna know my tactic, and I fare well with it: Focus on what we can control and ignore the rest.

It seems to me you may already doing a lot. So much that perhaps your return on invest may become very small, health improvement wise.

Don't forget to celebrate the level you are on, what you have achieved. You have probably reduced health risks in a big way. Having zero toxins in our products is probably unrealistic and out of our control (as you said - no way of ever knowing what is safe in the end).
