I want to buy a laptop for a few purposes, not my main laptop:

  • Use it to run !localllama@sh.itjust.works stuff and Stable Diffusion

  • Use it for games downloaded from repack sites

  • I would like to pull out the WiFi card. I have offline computers and online computers

  • I would probably dual-boot Windows and Linux, or else have it boot Windows and use a live USB when I want Linux

Thank you all.

Yeah the standards are a real mess. Even the cables can't be trusted.

I hope when they do USB 5 all features are mandatory and all the cables are forced to qualify.
