    "Why have I been using these big beefy machines?" The answer is heat. You can make an insanely powerful laptop but the form factor will eventually limit performance as the heat has nowhere to go. I'm sure it did run really well for this tutorial. Keep using it for another four hours straight and that's where you'll see the difference between a laptop and a desktop.
    The other reason is cost. Laptops are way less bang for your buck than a desktop.

    • @FreewayBrent
      @FreewayBrent 4 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Very true. Having a good laptop cooling pad does help though...that, taking a couple of extra breaks here and there (if time affords you that luxury) to put the laptop into sleep mode for a bit.

    • @mukkaar
      @mukkaar 4 ปีที่แล้ว +30

      Yup, if you work at one place regularly, it just makes sense to get desktop. Way better performance for less cost. And you will get more productivity out of dedicated workspace anyways.

    I haven’t watched the whole vid yet, but honestly thank you. A few days ago, for a school project, I tried to recreate one of your vox videos. It was like a combination of your Cuba and Syrian War video. I legit had no clue where to start, but saw that you used geo layers in one of the clips, so I started using that. Then I figured out how to use camera and everything. It wasn’t amazing, but I finished it, and I learned a lot! But I just wanna say, I appreciate this content the most. Of course all your other content is also amazing :) thank you!

      @@phineas7423 you know why that happen? that's because unlike AMD, which is headed by an doctorate engineer (Lisa Su), Intel's headed by a guy that has a masters on business administration. that pretty much sums up why currently intel is only focusing on making money instead of actually innovating. it's a shame that a last gen ryzen 4000 still beats an 11th gen on many workload, mainly multithreaded ones.

      This sort of workflow really doesn't need to be so GIS intensive. As a geodesigner, it's often important to get out of analytic software and into design software as quickly as possible.
      A good shapefile or two goes a long way for one animation, but why spend all the extra time when what you need is open source and linkable?
      If you need niche data (disputed borders, treaty boundaries, resource lines, shipping routes), well sure you can spend more time on it. It's just about efficient use of time for the story.

      @@ryanleethomas The issue I see with it is using Mercator projection for every single project. Mercator has some advantages but it is far from a silver bullet and distorts things pretty terribly near the poles. Some have even accused it of being colonialist because it makes Europe look way larger than it is and make areas near the equator significantly smaller in comparison.

    I've been using Geolayers for some time now. I always thought I was the only motion designer interested in maps. The only thing that bothers me using Open Street or Mapbox in Geolayers is the legal requirement for on screen attribution. That's why I end up using NASA's imagery and a world map vector file most of the time. I still align and parent all of this to a hidden Geolayers map so I can use all the data features and labelling. Best of both worlds :)
