What makes you think anything you could do is not based on previous conditions? I don't think any of your examples, by themself, say anything about determinism or free will.
If the universe would be fully deterministic and you'd have all Data and unlimited computing power you could predict any point in time.
That's just saying a being with perfect knowledge knows everything. It's nonsense.
We already know systems change when observed (See the current work on quantum physics). But there is no all-knowing being who could do the observation.
