Your difficulty here is the qualifier "better". We can create a different icon. A more modern icon. A cooler icon. But there is not a better icon, not until fewer people understand the floppy means save than those who have no idea what it is. And because it's self-reinforcing ("the save icon is a floppy disk because floppy means save"), that's not likely in my estimation.
And how much did it cost? The whole thing, I mean. Must people who buy a game want to play the content so the price of said content should be included. Somewhere in the region of $1000, isn't it?
For what it's worth, I'm not fighting you and they can't fucking make me. I can't stop anything by myself but I'll lay down and die before I participate. Of course I don't intend to just lay down and die, but if it's that or join the cult, I know what I'm choosing.
I want to make it clear before anyone reads further that that I am not passing judgement in this case. However, I did read that in all cases, the women involved presented themselves as willing to him, messaged him they couldn't wait to see him and they loved him, and voluntarily met up with him explicitly for sex (or whatever he calls it). IF that's true, I genuinely don't understand how he was supposed to know they didn't want to participate. If anyone resisted or declined at any point, of course, that's very different and would dramatically change my understanding of events, but that wasn't in the reports I read. I may be out of the loop, I haven't been reading updates in real time or anything.
Yeah, they chose this over a relationship with us. They get to enjoy the fruits of that choice for the rest of their lives.
Play Noita, and you can be a proper alchemist too!
NB: mastering alchemy may require learning Finnish. Material to energy is likely to result in rapid localised expansion, leading to equally rapid unplanned disassembly of the alchemist. u/voracitude, Nolla Games, and the Tourism Council of Finland disclaim all responsibility for bodily harm including but not limited to sawblades to the face.
Okay no worries, I'd at least try llama cpp just to see how fast it is and to verify it works. If it doesn't work or only works once and then quits, maybe the problem is LMStudio. In that case you might want to try GPT4All (https://www.nomic.ai/gpt4all); this is the one I started with way back in the day.
If you care enough to post the logs from LMStudio after it crashes I'm happy to take a look for you and see if I can see the issue, as well 🙌
Which runtimes did you try, specifically?
From that thread, switching runtimes in LMStudio might help. On Windows the shortcut is apparently Ctrl+shift+R. There are three main kinds: Vulkan, CUDA, and CPU. Vulkan is an AMD thing; CUDA is an nVidia thing; and CPU is a backup to use when the other two aren't working for it is sssslllllooooooowwwwwww.
In the thread one of the posters said they got it running on CUDA, and I imagine that would work well for you since it's an nVidia chip; or, if it's already using CUDA try llama.cpp or Vulkan.
I started the game with a variation of this idea from Rogue Rat, but instead of a legendary farmer's daughter I dominated a legendary hulking baboon. 53 strength and 60 health seemed like a big jump in power from my water merchant.
It's going... pretty well so far.
"Noita, but fish" indeed.

I had my best run going in over 280 hours. I had a homing rock wand, infinite spells and vampirism (infinite healing with the oceans of blood from corpses, not to mention grinding up the meat realm), an unmolested potion shop in the mines, and so many hearts I had 451 health with Vampirism. A fast teleport wand, a black hole wand I could have used to dig to parallel worlds eventually. I had killed The Alchemist and the Meat Realm boss with my sick homing quantum-split plasma beams on a Sparkbolt + Trigger.
Then I found Touch of Water.
No room in my inventory, onto my chainsaw wand just 'til I could get back to a Holy Mountain to save it for later. Saw a corpse, thought I'd top off my health and fired my chainsaw wand.
Actual footage of the event:
I finally feel like a real Noita!

Those fuckwits were so fucking loud and so fucking sure of themselves that they don't get to hide behind half-measures now. They get to enjoy full responsibility; I lay it at the feet of each and every one of them.
