I have to admit it's the main thing I like about X; I tend to use my Linux machine via Xming from Windows. That said I would like the option of having accelerated compositing et al when using a machine locally whilst still being able to use X remotely.
Depends where you are. In the UK at least, as far as I know, they aren't required to honour a mistake if a reasonable person wouldn't have believed it was correct.
To be fair it also said "there's also clang; but it uses the same switches as gcc so you can just use it as a drop in replacement." But other than that...yeah, it doesn't really containing anything startling.
Some games are only a hair's breadth away from being Linux ready anyway - I've certain played quite a few Windows games that use SDL, Ogre, OpenAL, etc..
I don't think you could prove they were lying even if they were open source. All looking at the source code would tell you is that they implemented Dual_EC_DRBG; exactly the same as looking at the OpenSSL source code will tell you. I doubt there would be a handy comment saying "/* Implemented a known-weak method on behalf of the NSA. */" around it.
The problem Dual_EC_DRBG, as far as I can tell, is in the choice of constants used in it; the constants are defined by the NIST standard.
I suspect because they're not trying to deny that their implementation introduced a weakness, simply that they didn't do it on purpose. They're back handedly admitting to incompetence rather than corruption.
I'd go to one of the British deposit libraries and ask to see their copy; deposit libraries have existed since the Statute of Anne in 1710. The British Library has 28,765 books and 1,480 journals in its catalogue from 1910...
Only it's not; apparently compounds of the noble gases have been known for a while. The only thing there's no known compound of is helium. At least that's what one my chemistry friends is telling me.
If you're going to pick a paper then The Guardian was not a good choice, given Dr Ben Goldacre writes a regular column for the called "Bad Science" where he critiques terrible science reporting in the media (amongst other things).
The main advantage the TITAN has over the 780 Ti is the memory; having 6GB compared to the 780 Ti's 3GB. If you're only looking at running 1080p that's not such an issue, but if you're one of those people with more money than sense and you're looking at running a 4k panel, it is.
I really don't know why they didn't stuff 6GB on the 780 Ti. My *580* has 3GB. I'd really expect two series down the line for there to be a bit more RAM on it as standard (3GB wasn't the standard memory configuration for a 580; that was 1.5GB I think).

Yeah and even we don't use it any more. Well, not all of it anyway.
Given many (most?) major companies and organizations maintain an active Twitter presence operated by their PR or customer relations department? Yes.
Unjust enrichment law might apply, but IANAL so I don't know.

Not that anyone has figured out yet anyway. I wouldn't wish to preclude the possibility.
£500 then or now? Because that would be about £215k now.
"Les cites des enfant perdu" is also good.
Actually it's not Linux's fault that Final Cut Pro is made by Apple now; they bought it years ago.
The same reason a lot of Brits write "should of" instead of "should have", I suspect: they're writing it the way they say it.

Sort of: they use torrenting stats to work out what's popular and acquire licences to stream it.
Now I'm just curious about age-to-UID mapping - I'm just about to hit 36.

I feel like pointing out that the "AngloSaxies" are by definition Germanic. The name is even derived from a combination of Angle and Saxon.

That's still how we do it...

Sky would also include Be, I believe.
Zen are one of the better mainstream ISPs - they're actually a b2b ISP, their home packages are more of a sideline.
They do here. They just have First Class tickets instead.
And the ones who drive just get stuck on the M25 instead.
There's a guy who catches one of the trains I catch in the morning who always gets on with his skateboard. Although I work in North London.
