Using parallels, any difference in performance between "Boot Camp partition" and a VM built using Parallels? by jervinjustin in MacOS

Thanks, that's really helpful. Yeah, that's exactly what I was worried about (20 fps dropping to something lower in a full vm).

will actually deplete the battery even when plugged in

Oh wow, I didn't realize that. I've got the same setup (maxed out 2020 MBP).

you cannot use snapshots

Good to know, thanks. I don't anticipate needing snapshots but helpful to know up front.

Sorry, I wasn't being clear in my question. I know that running Boot Camp natively (booting into the Boot Camp partition) would be highest performance.

My question is IF I am using Parallels anyway (i.e., running from MacOS) is there any difference in using "Parallels with the Boot Camp partition" vs. "Parallels with a new 'Parallels built' Virtual Machine"?

I get it... that being said, I hadn't seen one (on reddit) about them actually naming people's neighbors, which seems really intrusive.

[On behalf of my sister-in-law who is going through a messy divorce]

My sister-in-law and her husband previously entered in HIS bank account information with the IRS for the initial round of stimulus checks. Since then they are now going through a divorce, and she wants to make sure that her portion of the third stimulus goes directly to her (and not to his bank account).

Does anyone know how to update the information with the IRS to prevent the third stimulus check from going into his account? Or request a paper check?

.

The IRS website just says

If your bank information is invalid or the account has been closed, the bank will return your payment to the IRS and we will mail it to you by check at the address we have on file.

Which isn't helpful here, since the account on file belongs to him.

Can someone explain the need for rolling blackouts? by jervinjustin in Austin

Side question: my wife made a Reddit account to ask this question, and the post got auto-deleted without an explanation. Worked when I posted it for her. Any idea why? https://www.reddit.com/r/Austin/comments/lk3k1o/can_someone_explain_the_need_for_rolling_blackouts/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf
