Mozilla still has a lot of catching up to do before Firefox can reaches Chrome's maturity level. After all everyone knows that the version number reflects the quality of the code and the features offered by the product.
The thing is, now you're getting a fully functional chip, crippled intentionally, whereas before you got a chip crippled unintentionally. Also, you can get a chip that is both intentionally and unintentionally crippled. More options, yay!

No it doesn't. Like OpenCL, CUDA basically means you're sending instructions to the GPU by writing data to a mapped memory region. Sharing address space is not possible at that level. It's only possible to do at a CPU level.
As long as there is a known minimum, yes. But when you have an open platform that minimum is not known. You just have to make a guess as to what will be the common configuration 2 years after you started working on a game.
Bear in mind, that customization of the UI has nothing to do with the openness of a hardware platform. As for the upgrades: of course they improved your experience. That's why they are called upgrades afterall. The point is, however, that because everyone has a different platform, the developers do not have common denominators. What works acceptably on one configuration doesn't work as well on another configuration, and to improve the experience one has to upgrade.
Why would you want to add more ram or a new processor? You think it would improve your experience of using a tablet, right? In truth the openness of the PC actually hurts experience. Because everyone is making something different, developers don't have a platform to target. You install Windows 7 only to discover that your computer slows down considerably in comparison to windows xp. You install a game and find out later that in order for it to not lag you need to upgrade. A developer is forced to make different settings for a PC game, because they don't know what the user has and the user is in turn forced to know how to configure the game to work best on their PC. That's not improving the experience, that's making it worse.
Unlike flooz, the bitcoin cannot become worthless in a day. If it does become worthless it will do so gradually. The difference is that bitcoin is not controlled nor backed by any one person or company and thus is unaffected (not affected beyond recovery to be more precise) by the bankrupcy of any one company.
It's not meaningless. The point is not to say that bitcoin is as strong as a dollar - which it isn't (as the strength of a currency is defined by how many traders accept it), but to say that the adoption rate is growing and quite rapidly.
First thing you have to realize is that people will not make a decision to do that. For one because such things have never been committed even by revolutionists. Kings were beheaded, yes, but that's basically execution. Secondly Putin is part of the Russian people, and what you do here is pit him against the people by making up imaginary circumstances that actually allow you to prove a point but in no way are realistic. So if you can be unrealistic, in assuming that the people of Russia may want to do what you described, then I guess I can be just as unrealistic by unswering your question: yes, he is absolutely going along with it.

BBC reporters don't have a sense of humor. It's not required in the job description.
Well, it's what sells these days, and calling something a remake may attract fans of the old game. Usual bullshit marketing at work.

Is it now? Tell that to people on 9fans - they like to laugh at stupid arguments like that.
Can't wait till they make a movie about differently shaped blocks falling from the sky.

Only Nokia.

Well, gladly, today they are not. The previous administration was all about that crap. I take it this guy is a fan who only sees what he wants to see.

It also temporarily stores all the data it's transmitting.
Linux sucks.
The amount of bitcoins in circulation is actually irrelevant. The number of people trading in bitcoins is what really matters.
Unlike flooz, the bitcoin cannot become worthless in a day. If it does become worthless it will do so gradually. The difference is that bitcoin is not controlled nor backed by any one person or company and thus is unaffected (not affected beyond recovery to be more precise) by the bankrupcy of any one company.
A better answer to "what is this backed by" is "the goods and services that merchants sell for bitcoins". Just like the U.S. Dollar.
