Zillow already has that. You input an address and it tells you the distance in time by transportation method on each property details screen. You can also sort properties according to distance from the given address. The software labels it a "work" address, but you will face no consequences for using an address that you do not work at.

The same thing about housing that causes us to lose our minds. Under capitalism, investments (risky and otherwise) are commonly working people's only hope for a taste of freedom. If you don't like it, you have a friend in me.

Why did they discontinue support for eGPUs? They have some legacy beef with Nvidia and now they are increasingly competitors.

I can't speak for cycles, but Redshift is very slow on OpenCL. I've never heard of using it on Metal. I know it was written for CUDA and didn't even support OpenCL for a long time. Do you know how it runs on Metal?
I don't think V-Ray GPU will run on anything but Nvidia, and if it will then it's definitely slow.

I think it's ruled out by the fact that Nvidia would need to release macOS drivers, and there is no realistic chance of them doing so without Apple's support.

>3D animation
Disagree. All the good GPU-based rendering engines need CUDA, and none of them are optimized for Apple silicon. Octane (the one in the demo) is trash, only good for fancy titles and that sort of thing.

It would be useful for 3D rendering and that's about it.

I am probably the minimal target market for the mac pro m2 ultra. I am an artist and I do a lot of 3D rendering. I think it's a great price and I would love to own one, but I wouldn't even consider it unless it had support for Nvidia GPUs. Good GPU-based 3D rendering engines need CUDA. Octane, the rendering engine in their demo, is trash. Less important but still a consideration is that I don't really want to be stuck with only macOS on my workstation because one of my favorite 3D softwares is windows-only. All of this is such a shame because I absolutely hate building and maintaining a PC workstation.

There would be if it were a strike, because the so-called "strikers" would operate the company as employees.
