Very angry to learn that TB is a cause of my second logic board to be fried by overheating from the Radeon GPU in my 2011 MBP.

Even though I use the Preferences to NOT "use hardware acceleration when available" it sill forces the use of the killer GPU.

Apple has a paper on how to do it right. See: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/qa/qa1734/_index.html

I just discovered an app that forces turning it off on all apps -- except that it does not work on all apps: https://gfx.io/switching.html#integrated-only-mode-limitations

That developer paper says to add a line into a plist. Is that something that can be done to my copy of TB ?

I can turn it off in Firefox; both are developed by Mozilla...

No they are not both developed by Mozilla. Even if they both have the Mozilla name on them.
