Asking for Laptop Recommendation – Offline GPU

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. So for these two, it would need a decent GPU. * I would like to pull out the WiFi card. I have offline computers and online computers. No need for this to use the internet. * 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. Money is no object.

What are the best voice-changer AIs accessible to the average user?

I have heard about AIs that can clone voices from samples, but not sure which one to use. Not using it for anything deceptive: I just want the voiceover actors I like to read me bedtime stories.

Friends just made me watch 'Nyad' [2023 film]. Holy shit is this what hollywood films are like?

The moral of the story is to be really mean and inconsiderate of people around you. That plus wishful thinking + Protestant work ethic will make you heroic. That's the entire point, repeated over and over again throughout the film. It's just constant, really obvious repetition of lines like – *"I'm torn between that and the loathing of the self-respect I might lose if I don't do it. I suppose the word is pride. I, uh... I feel that I failed, mentally especially."* ---- Here's a dialogue from it – *You really don't get it, do you? What this is like for us? We're broke. The time, the emotional toll. I mean, it's been years, Diana.* *Well, suck it up. We're a team, right?* *Wow.* *Your superiority complex is really screwed up, you know that?* *Yeah. Well, everyone should have a superiority complex. Everyone should feel like the star of their own life.* I'm not even interpreting: it's explicitly trying to glorify pride and using other people for your ego. That's the whole gist of the story, more than I can get across in a few quotes.
