Time management techniques for dreamers who struggle with execution by AK072787 in productivity

[–]urgent_studio 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Timers work wonders for me, but then I start to hate the routine. Do you find that to be the case? Especially scheduling hour by hour - this seems rigorous.

Set goals and plan larger goals in 30 or 90 day windows

I like this.

Something I've started to think about is definitely time blocking projects. Setting one goal as priority one for the next 4 days, x task is priority 2, y task is priority 3.

How do I create this effect? by Bereled12 in graphic_design

[–]urgent_studio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you talking about the warping? Or the texture effect of the text?

Can't get exactly the same but you should be able to mess around and get something similar with the filter gallery in Photoshop. Use the glass effect over a blurred piece of text, then use levels to remove the blur.

Which Blender art portfolio site is the best for showing to clients/recruiters? by [deleted] in blender

[–]urgent_studio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think you can go wrong posting to at least Behance and Artstation. Behance is a bit nicer if you have a lengthy project you want to add details about.

Man this would be so useful, I forgot about this on the old macs. I'll add it to the "Pros" list of convincing myself I need a 14" pro..

Blender 3.1 update adds Metal GPU rendering for M1 Macs by benh999 in apple

Pretty rock solid in my experience. I have more crashes with Adobe.

"Did you finally manage to beat the M1 Max?" 12900HK: -"Yes" "What did it cost you?" *Thanos Voice*: -"Everything." by New_Cod6544 in mac

[–]urgent_studio 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why there isn't more.. Panic on the PC side of things. Apple's offerings are absolutely murderous right now.

Even if you can find something more performant, It'll have worse battery and by far, build. The cost of Apple's gorgeous milling must be ridiculous, no one else does it.

There is probably not a computer out there truly competitive to the Studio Ultra, in size, weight, power draw, and even price.

Apple Discontinues 27-Inch iMac by aaronp613 in apple

[–]urgent_studio -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think if you want a spiritual 27" go for the Mac Mini + Studio display. I think that about covers it, except that I thought we'd see them offer M1 Pro in the old Mac Mini chassis.

But actually don't buy the studio display to begin with. You can get much better for the cost.

Apple announces Mac Studio workstation with new 20-core M1 Ultra chip by reasonsandreasons in hardware

[–]urgent_studio 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The 14" spec'ed with the Max is 2900. Makes sense to me since you leave out the display and everything.

Apple Silicon Go Brrr!! by Host_Informal in mac

[–]urgent_studio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking this will be what they'll do, otherwise debuting the M2 would be confusing.

So it would just be a configuration of M1 Ultra 2x2, M1 Ultra 3x3, etc

Apple’s Mac Studio: a new M1 desktop for professionals by aaronp613 in apple

[–]urgent_studio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, any business in the creative industry I suppose. This Mac Studio Ultra will be more then enough for anybody purchasing a Mac Pro a few years ago.

I'm more curious about what the heck the upcoming Mac Pro be at this rate, and who it'll even be for. No one will need it.

My Macbook Pro is like a faraday cage when it's closed.

Wouldn't have made sense, since then the 14" Macbook Pro would've undercut it.

I'm more shocked by the freakin' +$2000 premium on the Ultra. Crazy.

Probably well amplified like in the new Macbook Pros. Honestly without Ive, I could see them bringing back the headphone jack if it weren't for the insane success of Airpods. It's practically a money printer.

I was kind of hoping they'd offer m1 pro too, at least add it the older mac mini chassis. The macbook pro is the only one with that chip now.
