Is Mojave Adobe-friendly yet? There were issues a few months ago so I held off upgrading.

- doesn't like older versions, keeps telling me that I need to upgrade eventually. Crashes when i do a save for web. Illy type is slow.
I might have to bite the_niko - ...bullet and actually subscribe to CC. Sorry Bennnn_niko
- yeah, running 10 year old software on modern OS is probably not the best ideamonospaced
- I'm on CC2018 and don't have issues. I did have issues with CC2019 when it first came out, I'm still waiting to upgrade Adobe CC but Mojave seems fine.fyoucher1

As much as I enjoyed my apple desktop and laptop, the lack of any nvidia option is a massive letdown for me. I’m ok with paying more than a PC for the same performance and then enjoy a better quality build and OS.
But no nvidia means no access to Gpu based renders at all like redshift and octane, thus no way to learn them. If you are a graphic designer working with 3D sometime or want to develop these skills it’s an issue big enough to switch back to PC.- Octane and Redshift don't work with AMD GPU's?NBQ00

- Check out Blender Cycles renderer. CPU or GPU, works on Mac PC and Linux and completely free.monNom
- I've been looking at blender, wondered about earning it or keep using C4D. Have you tried it?dyspl
- Also a C4D plug https://insydium.ltd…monNom
- Blender Cycles also doesn’t play nice with non NVIDIA cards. Right?monospaced
- Blender is really deep / powerful. Maybe a bit complex vs C4D but you get a LOT of tools. I've been using it for a few years. It's really good.monNom
- I think older versions might not have been able to use openCL. My understanding is currently, cycles supports both cuda and openCL for rendering.monNom
- I'll have another look into it then :) I'm trying to see what workflow we could use to switch some of our product shots to 3d.dyspl
- and having a process diffrent people can work on without too much headeache.
CAD> main "Studio" file to drop the product and then have the same render for all.dyspl - Yeah. If blender can access my AMD for rendering I’ll have to make use of that too!monospaced
- C4Ds pro render can use AMD cards for GPU rendering. And there’s always the external GPU option.RumperChunk

Foldable screen, triple camera and a FART sensor – the weirdest tech Apple’s iPhone 11 could feature
https://www.thesun.co.uk/tech/86…
"One Apple patent reveals a specialised sensor that would turn the gadget into a poisonous gas detector – which could potentially even sniff out pongy farts."
- Oh look we can bend a screen.
Unless it has some useful function it's just a gimmick.NBQ00 - too bad that Samsung own patent for foldable phone: https://www.patently…utopian

Ew! Karen farted!PonyBoy - Endless clamour to introduce a new model each year ≠ innovation.MrT
- This fold makes absolutely zero sense, lol. Now it it folds out from behind to double the screen size, great, but halving it? LOLset

Apple set to unveil streaming service, will reportedly offer HBO, Showtime for $9.99 a month
This is the Netflix-killer...never stop innovating Apple!
- I'm dropping HBO as soon as Game of Thrones wraps up, sooo. And, Showtime sucks.section_014
- 9.99 each, though.
apples stock is still up 21% YTDGnash - That is same price they (hbo and showtime) offer anywhere.monospaced

I liked the magazine thing for $9 a month... seems worth it.

According to Spielberg, Netlfix = bad and should be kept out of the oscars. But magically, Apple = good.
I wonder when his partnership agreement began with Apple.
- eat your words bergdbloc
- Spielberg argued Apple’s streaming films could be worthy of oscars? I doubt that.monospaced
- He went on at length to describe why netflix should be excluded, and isn't real cinema, and a lot of those attributes apply to Apple.zarkonite
- He even said: "the greatest contributions we can make as filmmakers is to give audiences the motion picture theatrical experience."zarkonite
- Shitty seats, overpriced junk food, noisy crowds, babies, limited schedules, sticky floors... you bet, that's the best way of enjoying a movie!zarkonite
- I guess I missed the part where Apple is opening a chain of theatres and not, in fact, selling a streaming box to attach to your TV at home.zarkonite
- yupmonospaced
- Cinema's can fuck off. Phone's constantly flashing, morons bringing their 4 year old (and feeding it candy) to a 3 hr Star Wars movie, $40 popcorn. Pass.section_014
- Spielberg and the Academy are completely out of touch with the modern cinema experience. They even stream their contender screeners now, to avoid theatres.i_monk
- I love going to the cinema. Maybe stop going to shitty cinemas with 4yo kids?inteliboy
- Your lounge at home is the most boring, passive, non-committal and lazy way to see a film.inteliboy

- "overpriced junk food"
If you're going to the movies to eat maybe you really don't need to go the movies.deadsperm - I've never been to movies with babies or sticky floors, maybe your problem has more to do with your choice of movies.deadsperm
- When I want a cheap bag of Doritos and clean wipes I load up Pornhub in the comfort of my home.deadsperm
- Your name seems apt, deadsperm.Nairn
- @dead: I used to go for the movies, are you saying you think I shouldn't be allowed to eat while watching a movie?zarkonite
- @intelli: I don't control the cinema environment, it's full of potential ways in which a movie can be ruined as opposed to my home. Cinema = lesser experience.zarkonite
- @zarkonite
It's your God given freedom to eat at the movies. But if your main concern is getting reasonably priced junk food your best bet is staying at home.deadsperm - And although I DON'T think you should not be ALLOWED to eat at the movies, personally I don't think experiencing a film NEEDS to be associated with eating.deadsperm
- I didn't mean to tread on you, bro. I would NEVER stand in the way between you and a bag of Doritos.deadsperm
- I actually don't want junk food, that's the problem because that's all they serve. Also the industry has decided that in order to operate a cinema successfullyzarkonite
- you have to sell crap to make a profit and stay open. I'd love it if there wasn't any food, less interference, but once again it's an inferior viewingzarkonite
- experience than at home. The seats are mostly badly positioned, the screen usually has terrible colours, the sounds is not nearly as crisp and detailed as myzarkonite
- home theatre. Forget about it if you need to pause for some reason etc. Cinemas have been shit for a long time, and you haven't really said anything in theirzarkonite
- defence. So, why do you think cinemas are so fucking great?zarkonite
- Because I'm poor. The cinemas I go to have a bigger screen with better quality video and audio than what I have at home. AND movies I don't have a home.deadsperm

Nothing screams "we've run out of ideas" more than a company like Apple launching a credit card.

"Congratulations! You've qualified for a very special introductory offer from Goldman Sachs!"
Apple Card is completely average, nothing exciting at all, but tons of people will get it because Apple is great at selling things. Even IF you buy a ton of Apple products (how much of yearly budget could possibly be on Apple products??) and use Apple Pay a lot, it's not really a great card.
There's a good chance there's a better rewards card out there for you, and plenty without fees.

Anyone think iStreaming, or whatever it's called, stands a chance? Personally, all I can think of is Tidal or eve Oprah's channel thing. I can recall when Apple insisted it didn't want "dirty" language in contenct. lol
Personally, I think it's DOA. Too little, too late, imho. Disney's streaming looks like it could take over (since they do own Star Wars, Pixar, ESPN, Fox, etc.).
- I hope it dies on its arse. I'm all for competition. But if there are too many services, the quality gets spread thin and the wallet gets spread wide.Hayzilla
- movement is good. 10years till it's finally free again and we use some dopeass future cyber version of original Napster:) meanwhile let's pay somebody for it.uan
- It stands a chance as much as Apple Music does against Spotify. There are a lot of people who are poised to benefit from the seamlessness of it.monospaced
- "quality gets spread thin"? But the more players, the more chance we have of getting something that actually works.Ianbolton

Please kill me, I can't deal with any more Fan Boy crap. IT#s a fucking credit card, It's meant for you to accrue debt!
- debt is so dumb. i'm so glad i fought my way out of that world. This apple card is a silly idea that will probably end up making them more money than products.capn_ron

- yeah but titanium etched debt, so ok.
