Mostly agree except about disconnecting from the internet, classic SMS/voice calls aren’t any more private than VoIP.

Your best bet for location privacy is E2E encrypted services like Signal over wifi, plus MAC randomization and a VPN on untrusted networks. I’d say GrapheneOS is good enough for most people, but mobile Linux has also come a long way.

Same goes for JS, for example the onclick attribute.

It can also include inline JS. HTML alone cannot be turing complete, but HTML+CSS is.

Where does it say the first ship is traveling near the speed of light?

Are you sure vsync is disabled? It looks like you’re getting a very consistent 144fps.

I personally keep vsync enabled, but you should absolutely disable it if you’re testing your hardware since it forces the fps to never exceed you monitor’s refresh rate.

As for throttling, it’s only useful as a diagnosis tool. First and foremost you should be finding other people’s benchmarks of your hardware (cpu/gpu) and running those benchmarks yourself at the same settings. Phoronix is a great resource for Linux benchmarks.
