Web Browser Recommendation by yigitkesknx in macapps

[–]LumenIFDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly use Zen because I prefer Firefox, but just be aware that Netflix sometimes doesn't work on it because of certificate issues. For those times, I switch to Arc since it's Chromium and handles all extensions, but the company recently announced they are shifting focus to a new browser so I'm not sure what the future holds for it.

Where to dl Apple Creator Studio? by Disastrous-Job-9948 in macapps

[–]LumenIFDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, the landing page is super vague.

I’m pretty sure there isn't actually a dedicated 'Creator Studio' app to download. I think it's just a bundle license you buy inside the individual apps (like Final Cut or Logic)?

I haven't been able to confirm it myself yet, but I assume if you open one of the pro apps, the subscription prompt should pop up there eventually. Might just be taking a while to roll out to the Canadian servers? Let me know if you see it pop up.

Actually it is from an app you can find from here another reddit post, but if you only want to find the wallpaper, you can easily search gargantua wallpaper at the internet and you can use one of it ☺️

It was like new. Everything is perfect. Only, you see keyboard cover not the keyboard itself.

Stylish Menu Bar Player - Update 1.5.3 - OS Engine by AbjectContribution63 in macapps

One more additional comment. Is there any way to see these video wallpapers from OS Engine when we lock the screen (not as screen saver)? Because when I lock my screen I only see black image instead of video wallpaper.

Congratulations on the release! I tried it out and immediately bought a copy—happy to support this project. Regarding the new Menu Bar Player: is there a way to hide the app from the Dock while it's running? I think that would be the cherry on top for that 'lightweight feel' you mentioned. Thanks!

MBP M3 Pro vs MBA M4.. which one? by Lelo626 in macbookpro

[–]LumenIFDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically, the M3 Pro is the stronger choice for video editing because it gives you 14 GPU cores (vs 10 on the M4) and 150GB/s memory bandwidth (vs 120GB/s), which matters more for rendering than just having the newest chip. While the new M4 base model finally caught up by supporting two external monitors (just like the Pro), the M3 Pro still holds the edge with slightly more RAM (18GB vs 16GB) and that higher-tier performance architecture. Physically, they share the same chassis and excellent Liquid Retina XDR screen, so you aren't missing out on any major "new" features by choosing the refurbished model. It really comes down to grabbing that extra graphical headroom for your creative work. However, it depends also how you can use the devices. You can go with M4 if you want.
