DoH is good, but it wouldn't help much in this scenario. Even if every website you connected to supported Encrypted Client Hello, IP addresses greatly narrow down which domains you're connecting to.

But realistically using DDG to generate a password is safer than downloading a local program to do it, an attacker would have to break into DDG and MITM your internet. For a local program all they have to do is compromise the site you download it from, and maybe the developer's signing key if you check that.

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.

She-Hulk was a TV show, and IMO it's among the better half of Marvel shows (which isn't saying much).

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

So their entire company is built on the gamble that self-driving cars will happen before their finances implode?

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

So you believe that Google is sharing the personal details of everyone that watches particular videos with some shady left wing cabal of pundits? Maybe it's just an inappropriate video.

They even cited the exact episode, there are plenty of other ways to see that clip if you don't want to log in. And isn't it always republicans passing laws requiring ID for "adult content"?

If you believe that AI is "conscious" while it's processing prompts, and also believe that we shouldn't kill machine life, then AI companies are commiting genocide at an unprecedented scale.

For example, each AI model would be equivalent to a person taught everything in the training data. Any time you want something from them, instead of asking directly, you make a clone of them, let it respond to the input, then murder it.
That is how all generative AI works. Sounds pretty unethical to me.

And, by the way, we do know exactly what happens inside processors when they're running, that's how processors are designed. Running AI doesn't magically change the laws of physics.

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.
