Yeah, but the restrictions are also getting loosened to fill some of the positions. So we're getting the people we never thought should be on the police force either 😬 at least that's the case in Chicago. It makes for a worse experience over time.

Don't get me wrong, there is so much reform that's needed still. If there's an emergency I am calling the police, and I'd like someone who knows what they're doing to respond.

Oh dang, I've been wondering when this would happen.

[–] LOLjoeWTF@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I'll check that out, thanks. I think that's a pretty good idea.

Lovingly hold the dog and do dog-weighted squats

Yeah that's a solid approach. I like that. Any idea why the Studio displays aren't as bright as the MBP screens? I haven't compared them side by side before. I should probably do that.

WOW, that is an insane amount of performance gain 🀯

[–] LOLjoeWTF@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Alright thanks for the input. Yeah, I have 32gb in my PC and never struggle with usage. I'm happy to see apple finally bumping the base, but it's still a bit light 😊

 

My partner has a CanonRP which takes pictures at a resolution of 6240 x 4160. They're currently using a MBP from about 2016 with 16GB of RAM. The screen is beautiful to work with - but any image processing in Lightroom can be measured in half-minutes. It takes a LONG time to see a change.

The laptop basically doesn't leave the office. I've been trying with the idea of upgrading to a newer MBP or an iMac or a Mac mini + a cinema display. I'm trying to keep it under 3K.

The cinema display and iMac don't seem to be as bright as the MBP screen which I found odd. I'm also not sure if performance impacts of using an M4 vs M4 Pro. I'm sure whatever is picked out will smoke the existing machine.

I'm looking for advice that anyone can offer. My partner doesn't want to venture outside of the apple ecosystem.

Thanks in advance!

I ran a half marathon at the end of September and then complained to my friends how running has ruined my summer and taken over my life. I grew pretty sick of it. So, now that that's out of my system,I feel refreshed and I laced up and ran 4mi over lunch earlier this week and it was wayyyy harder than it should have been hahaha! Looking like I've got some rebuilding to do.

Is there a playbook you find effective to achieve his goal, and what is the timeline?

I find it hilarious that the image is of Google Play and the title used the word "this". Pretty misleading

The more expensive Bike+ does it, but not the regular one. It's a hard sell given the price difference.
