![]() ![]() ![]() Note that if your iMac has Thunderbolt ports, for the best possible performance get a Thunderbolt SSD but they are pricey.Ģ) Used SuperDuper to clone the internal HDD to the external SSD (name it something like Macintosh SSD)ģ) Changed the startup drive to the SDD and reboot (System Preferences | Startup Disk). Here's what I did:ġ) Purchased an external SSD (WD 1TB, USB-C). The highest cost solution is a new iMac the next highest is to have the HDD professionally replaced with a SSD the cheapest solution is the simplest and very DIY and requires no open heart surgery. I had a hunch that it was nevertheless the HDD. After 4 years it became almost unbearable to use with slow app starts and beach-balling aplenty. If your iMac has a HDD what is almost certainly happening is that the HDD performance has degraded, especially the spin-up time. If you want 32GB, then choose between the Mac Studio (M1 Max) and the MacBook Pro (M1 Pro/Max). If you mostly use Lightroom Classic, you are probably not going to need more than 32GB unified memory, even though some models can go much higher. Mac Studio M1 Max: $1999 (base model has 32GB unified memory) The $3999 Mac Studio (M1 Ultra) gets all the press, but it is not worth the price for most people.īoiling it down, if we configure 16GB unified memory and 512GB storage across the board, we get: And it will be faster than any of the other options above. It already has 32GB unified memory and 512GB storage, so many people will not need to buy any upgrades they can simply pay the base price and be happy for several years. The base model of the new $1999 Mac Studio (M1 Max) represents great value. If you need 512GB internal storage, some base models already have enough. If it’s getting full, get the next size up next time. ![]() In all cases, storage depends on how much you have free on your current iMac 27". The base M1 Pro is enough for many people the M1 Max/Ultra processor upgrades are usually not necessary for Lightroom Classic. The base models of the MacBook Pro 16" and Mac Studio will perform better than the current M1 iMac and M1 Mac mini, especially during bulk import and export processing where the additional CPU cores help. ![]() The M1 Mac mini is a year and a half old, so many are waiting for an updated model that is a better match to the more recent releases. The M1 iMac is currently 24" only, there is no 27" option at this time. The M1 iMac and M1 Mac mini are basically the same computer inside configuring to the maximum 16GB unified memory is recommended for Lightroom Classic. There is usually no need to look at the high end Macs, for Lightroom Classic. The low end performs well enough but might need a memory upgrade, the base models of the mid-range are sufficiently equipped that upgrades beyond that are not always needed. Now, thanks to Apple Silicon, all M1 Macs, from the cheapest to most expensive, run Lightroom Classic well. A few years ago, if you wanted good Lightroom Classic performance, you couldn’t bother with the low-end models and usually had to pay a lot more for a discrete GPU and more memory. But I spend hours a day in LrC, and I want it to zoom like it used to, and to do so for maybe a decade to come. But how much would I actually need for LrC, as opposed to having bragging rights, which I truly don't care about. I could blow my retirement totally upscaling all the options. Again, how beefy do you have yours configured to get good LrC performance? Obvious advantage to portability, though I usually run with a few external drives, where the photos all live. Is it beefy enough to keep LrC zipping along? Are you happy with yours? How's it configured? BTW, this one has 1TB of disc and 24GB of RAM, just to offer my baseline. The monitor is in perfect shape even if the computer itself is dying, so I now feel I'm in effect abandoning good components since it's all in the same box. While I've loved my current one until lately, I'm now a bit skeptical of the all-in-one format. To some extent, my question is independent of which particular form of Mac, though clearly some offer larger RAM choices and such. So here's my question: how much Mac is plenty without unnecessarily blowing the budget? How much RAM? How much CPU? And so on. This year performance is starting to suck badly, and not just in LrC, so I think it's about time for a new Mac. I've been running LrC (even before they added "Classic") on the same iMac 27 for about nine years. ![]() ![]() ![]() As a free invoicing solution, Google Docs is very easy to use.

The good thing with samples: you can see how it oxidizes (that's the turning orange thing). They'll send you home with some samples, but they'll really push you to buy their higher-end products. Sephora has that Pantone Color IQ thing, but it's apparently not very good and it mismatches people all the time. Ulta associated DO carry drugstore brands, but they don't have any testers and it'll mostly be a guess based on the Sales Associate's experience, which can be hit or miss. In fact, if you're looking for drugstore foundations, Sephora won't carry any of them and thus won't be able to match you to any of those. The brand that you're currently using is a brand Sephora won't carry, and it's also a brand that Ulta won't have testers for. That said, I've never been able to get matched at Ulta, either. I don't have a Sephora nearby at all (closest is out of my state, even), so I've never been inside one.

This paper highlights some of the most exciting innovations in longevity and why this field will be a major source of innovation during this century. Tackling the root causes of ageing offers great promise. This “longevity dividend” is potentially so significant that we must take immediate steps to accelerate efforts to address age-related diseases. The prize for radically extending healthy lifespans is enormous, both economically and in terms of public health. Yet this risk also presents an opportunity. The economic issues presented by ageing populations are existential in scale and, arguably, second only to the pressing climate challenges we face. Timing is of the essence: major demographic shifts mean that the economic and health-care structures created in the 20th century will not be able to support future generations. In fact, by targeting the biology of ageing, healthspans and lifespans have already been extended in numerous animal models, with some of the related drugs already in human use. Yet, what if we could instead focus on tackling ageing itself?īy uncovering the underlying mechanisms of ageing, we are on the cusp of being able to delay the onset of age-related conditions and confront the causes of degenerative diseases. Important breakthroughs often deliver an extra two or three years of healthy life, only for patients to then fall victim to yet another age-related disease. Today, the majority of medical research tackles each of these age-related illnesses individually and in turn. While the gradual decline of ageing has been seen as inevitable in the past, recent scientific advances suggest that it doesn’t have to be this way.Īge is one of the biggest risk factors in hospitalisations or death caused by many of the chronic illnesses plaguing developed nations, including cardiovascular disease, cancer and dementia. From antibiotics to stem-cell therapies, our ingenuity and determination to live longer and better lives have dramatically changed human experience over the past century. Last but not least, parents are the key piece here because of their example of life will be the best teaching for children and future citizens.The technological leaps that have shaped our modern health-care systems are astonishing. Now, it is the turn of our educational system and including teachers to create a common project of education about this. In other words, it is preferable to take educational measures than restrictive measures. I strongly believe that the most effective measure to carry out in a long term is to invest more money and time in education about healthier lifestyles. Among the measures that should be carried out are to ban smoking, higher taxes in unhealthy products, builds new public gyms in cities, and promote healthy lifestyles with tv ads or more arricles in magazines. The second pilar is to promote a complete legislation which allow people to be motivated for leading a healthy lifestyle. It is essential to have a specific subject in which children will get the preparation to acquire the good habits such as daily exercise and healthy diet. Thanks to this, we will develop in our future citizens knowledge, capacities and attitudes towards healthier lives. The first pilar is education were you can find public education and social services.
