Spicy Orange Shrimp
Last week when I made the fresh pea risotto with spicy grilled shrimp, I realized that it had been a while since I had done much of interest with shrimp and all of a sudden I was starting to feel shrimp withdrawal symptoms. Luckily I had just the idea to satisfy the cravings in the form of this spicy orange shrimp. I had been thinking about doing a shrimp dish with orange and some Asian flavours for a while and it was the perfect time to try it. I kept the recipe nice and simple with just a few basic ingredients. Oranges can have a fairly subtle flavour so the idea is to season the sauce without overpowering the flavours of the orange. Basically you want to balance the flavour of the orange with a bit of saltiness from the soy sauce, some tang from the vinegar, a touch of sweetness from the honey and some spicy chili heat. The net result is a dish of succulent shrimp covered in a sauce with the aroma and flavour of oranges that just dances on your tongue. I made these shrimp as more of an appetizer but you could easily turn this into a meal by adding a few vegetables and maybe some cashews and serving it on rice or noodles.
Spicy Orange Shrimp
(makes 4 servings)Printable Recipe
1 tablespoon oil
1 pound shrimp (peeled and deveined)
1 tablespoon garlic (grated)
1 tablespoon ginger (grated)
1 orange (juice and zest)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon chili sauce (or to taste)
1 handful cilantro (chopped)
1. Heat the oil in a pan.
2. Add the shrimp and saute until cooked, about 2-3 minutes per side and set aside.
3. Add the garlic and ginger and saute until fragrant, about a minute.
4. Add the orange juice, orange zest, soy sauce, rice wine, honey and chili sauce, deglaze the pan and simmer to reduce to a sauce like consistency.
5. Remove from heat and mix in the shrimp and cilantro.

I finally unboxed my MM211mvp, and cleared my old HH135 off my welder stand, set everything up and gave it a test drive last night. I only had a little bit of time by the time I got everything up and running, but I ran across a couple of issues:
- I've had _no_ luck with the autoset. I loaded the spool of Hobart .030" ER70S6, set the knob to .030 and I can't get the weld to lay flat to save my life. I get fairly nice tacks, but when I run a bead it looks like I'm building volcanos (they're smooth, not like if I wasn't getting gas flow, but have a pronounced hump in the middle):
In this pic I started (from top right to bottom left) with it set to the middle of the 1/8" range (it's 1/8" wall box), then tried it at the top of the 1/8" setting, then finally at the 3/16" setting (you can see it burned through at the end). I have good penetration, doesn't seem to be the lack of surface prep (that piece only has a few rust spots on it, it's nowhere near as bad as it looks in the pic, I cut a weld apart and it's not porous...), it just sits high like that. I'm hoping that I'm doing something wrong because if not that kind of thing pretty much makes the autoset useless (FWIW, I've made exactly the same part before with the HH135 and have no problem laying down a nice flat bead, even with the settings off I can adjust with gun travel...)- I think the flow meter might be wonky- I'm used to setting it somewhere _slightly_ higher (one or 2 ticks) than I need, pulling the trigger and getting exactly the gas flow that I need. this one, with a full, new bottle (that is reading the correct pressure...) with it set to maybe 21-22- pull the trigger and it drops to 11 (on my other flow meters i think I'd normally see about 17-18), and when I let go it doesn't always come back to the original setting. Weirder for me, if I close the bottle valve and quickly pull the trigger it will jump past 30 when I let go, and if I do it a couple of times will come pretty close to pegging the flow gauge before it it finally drops from the bottle being closed. Anyone see anything like that before?

It appears you are dragging the puddle, if so try pushing.

On my 211 the autoset has a mind of its own at times, it works better on 14 and 16ga. metal. It will just take time working with it, and there are some guys on here that just will not use the auotset it is just a pain in the butt..

Forget the auto-set and set it manually, and see what you get. If need be, try the flow-meter from the Hobart on it to see if that helps with the sheilding gas prob.
Auto Set sucks. I have a 211 and didn't use the feature after 5 minutes. Play with the settings, push the puddle, less wfs, gun angle is too extreme, and a bit slow. Better to lay a bead in a fillett joint vs flat as well. You can't compare beads from a 135 with the 211 either. Always "crack the valve" on the tank before hooking up a new bottle too, possibly clogged, doesn't take much. Hope you figure it out its a great machine!!
I only use the auto set on 3/16" and 1/4" stuff. Otherwise it lays down too much wire.

Yep, use the chart and manual settings. On mine if I use AutoSet it runs way too hot and burns right through the work piece. I get pretty much what you are seeing using AutoSet and it's because my travel speed is to high. Can't be helped because slowing down burns right through. And I'm talking 1/8 to 3/16 materials.
This is exactly why I think Miller should release a chart or spreadsheet formula for us 211 owners so we can set voltage and IPM better when not using AutoSet. AutoSet sucks and the increments on the dial don't really tell us what we need to know.==============

LOL, I find it more than a little funny that all 3 of you seem to indicate that it works or doesn't work in different ranges. I guess at least I'm not the only one.
I would say that a quick guess on my HH135 and 95% of the time I can adjust with travel speed/weave, where the autoset setting isn't close enough for me to do that makes it a totally worthless feature. I'm betting it's programmed somehow into the hardware, I wonder if you can reprogram it.
huh... I find it a little disconcerting that both of you think I'm dragging the puddle. I was pushing, probably at about 5-7* from perpendicular to the work piece, so I doubt to extreme either (extreme gun angle pushing usually results in a lot of splatter, I got literally _none_ which did really impress me)

This thing felt like a proper tool, like it had power to spare and the arc would do what I wanted it to do, it's just the auto set settings were wrong.Mark

I'd give the 14ga dial range a try. I haven't had an opportunity to try an auto-set unit, but I suspect input voltage influences the accuracy of Auto-set dial settings. Meaning if Miller designed the Auto-set feature around a 230 volt input, and your supply is 240V or higher, the Auto-set dial setting could be hotter then advertised.
Also keep in mind that different joint designs require different output power levels. For example, a butt joint constructed out of 1/8" is going to require a lower voltage and wire speed setting then a T joint.
What type of oscillation if any were you using?

Arteriovenous malformations (AVM) of the brain and spinal cord are tangles of abnormal blood vessels. They can form wherever arteries and veins exist. The ones that form in the brain or spinal cord have the most serious symptoms.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
The exact cause of arteriovenous malformations is unknown.
Risk factors that increase your chance of getting arteriovenous malformations include:
There are a number of symptoms that you may have if you have an arteriovenous malformation. Symptoms vary from person to person. They also depend on the location of the arteriovenous malformation in your body.
Symptoms may include:
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Images may be taken of your bodily structures. This can be done with:
You may be referred to a specialist for an exam and treatment. There are a number of specialists who focus on arteriovenous malformation such as neurologists, neurosurgeons, and interventional neuroradiologists.
The goal of treatment is to prevent hemorrhaging/bleeding. Hemorrhaging can lead to strokes, which occur due to lack of blood flow or increased pressure. Your doctor will need to determine if your arteriovenous malformation has bled, if it is not too large, and if it is in an area that can be easily reached and treated.
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Treatment options include the following:
Medication may be taken to ease the symptoms you may be having, such as headache, back pain, and seizures. This does not remove the arteriovenous malformation.
You must work with your doctor to decide whether you'd like to have surgery to treat your arteriovenous malformation. Leaving an arteriovenous malformation untreated may lead to serious complications. However, there is always a risk of nervous system damage with surgery.
There are three different types of surgery available. Choosing a surgery type will depend on the size and location of the arteriovenous malformation. The types of surgery include:
This standard surgery involves operating on the area of the brain or spinal cord where the arteriovenous malformation is located. This procedure is the most thorough treatment for arteriovenous malformations.
Endovascular embolization is often used for arteriovenous malformations that are located deeper within the brain. Regular surgery could damage the surrounding tissue in the brain or spinal cord.
A catheter will be guided through your arteries until it reaches the arteriovenous malformation. Then, a substance will be inserted to plug the fistula. This procedure does not destroy the arteriovenous malformation. It reduces the blood flow to the arteriovenous malformation and makes surgery safer.
This procedure uses a beam of powerful radiation. The beam is focused directly on the arteriovenous malformation. The radiation damages the walls of the blood vessels that lead to the arteriovenous malformation. This procedure does not always completely destroy the arteriovenous malformation, especially if it is large.
Sometimes, arteriovenous malformations are best left alone based on their size and location. It is best to speak with your physician about your decision.
There is no way to prevent an arteriovenous malformation. To help reduce your chances of hemorrhaging, take the following steps:

What bout "The Linux Desktop Responsiveness Patches" ?
Phoronix: Linux 2.6.36-rc1 Kernel Released
While no release announcement has yet to work its way onto the Linux Kernel Mailing List, the Linux 2.6.36-rc1 kernel was tagged last night in Git by Linus Torvalds. As we have already shared in a number of articles, the Linux 2.6.36 kernel delivers on an exciting number of new features and other improvements...
What bout "The Linux Desktop Responsiveness Patches" ?
r700 tiling support here we come!!!!!! w00t!
No R800 DRM for 2d/3d accel? Sad
It was in 2.6.35. Why so sad ?
How badly does an rc1 kernel usually hurt when it misbehaves? I crave those drm and responsiveness improvements...
What's the deal with the Maverick kernels lately. It seems like a lot of them are failing to build.
Didn't 2.6.35 just get released ? How could the code have possibly bitrotted ?
We always need a kernel driver before we can develop & test the userspace code -- the only difference is that this time we pushed out the kernel code early so people would be able to pick up the userspace code without having to build their own kernel.

Extremely pleased overall with this purchase. It was all that we expected and easily assembled.
Ordered a king because I have new king memory foam mattress also from Overstock bed frame is 6" too wide for my mattress.
extremely happy with the quality of this product for the price I paid
When I recieved the product, two of the plastic pegs that hold up the bed were broken. Fitting the pegs into the wooden board was quite a task. The holes to fit the pegs in were not deep enough, and the pegs kept falling out. I ended up super-gluing the pegs into the holes. The wooden boards are not what I expected either. They are not sanded down or smooth. You have to be careful while setting up the bed, so that you do not get splinters. After assembling the platform and putting a king size mattress on it, it was quite obvious that the platform was too big for the mattress. There are a couple inches extra on each side. While I covered it up with blanket so it is not as visible, there is now room in between my bed and the wall where pillows keep falling. Once everything was set up, my husband and I laid on the bed and several more of the plastic pegs broke off. This is just from having me (135 pounds) and my husband (210 pounds) lay down on the bed. While I will say that the look of the bed is nice, aside from the fact that it is too big for a king sized mattress, it is very poor quality. I would suggest buying another product instead.
Wood slates are hard to get in place. There are plastic "pegs" that hold the frame up. They keep falling out as they do not fit in holes. I had to take apart the frame and glue them on! A bit of a pain... Frame is just OK but worth the cheap price I guess.

The Shangri-la Canyon also Grand Birang Canyon is located at the foot of Minor Snow Mountian in Geza township, about 103 kms from the Shangri-la. The scenery of the valley amazes many people. The plant research groups from China and Sweden call it a mysterious valley. The valley is steep and narrow, with walls of some 1,000 meters high, the most narrow part of the canyon is only 10 meters between the two sides. As a saying goes that a sky chasm is produced by a narrow line in between the valley and stones are the gates of the two-mountain valley.

Asia is the biggest continent on Earth, a darling little gem floating around in space.Hm, what is Asia? Who's in on it?China and India are safe bets for Asian nations. Korea, Japan, Thailand, you're fine.Europe? No. Europe would sort of be on the "Asian continent" if not for those pesky Ural mountains dividing things up in the middle, and then also the whole lineage of kings and wealth and nations and the EU and all that "give me my respect" stuff.Russia would probably be happiest as its own continent, so for now we'll leave it in "Eurasia" and just hope the natural gas supplies keep flowing.Pakistan and Afghanistan are dang close to Asia, but politically they show up in "Middle East" news stories an awful lot. Verdict: Eurasia.I guess we'll actually have to consider everything from Turkey on eastward to be "Eurasian", although the moniker seems overlappitory of the territory.The Asian economy is now officially raging like a wild furnace of lava that consumes everything in its path. Japan has had the largest individual economy in Asia for decades, but it is forecast that both India and China will outstrip Japan within twenty years.China is the largest holder of United States debt and is positioned to become the world's next superpower, provided that Godzilla doesn't return and decide to stomp everybody back into the Shang Dynasty.Text by Steve Smith.

Sen. Shaheen's daughter: I know the NH voting rules
The younger Shaheen received national attention earlier this week when reports about her lingerie business, "Naked Undies," surfaced on BuzzFeed.com and other web sites, as well as in the New York Daily News.
The web site says that after "working tirelessly on the campaign trail" on her mother's behalf, "Eventually, Molly planted her roots in Los Angeles, working for top talent agencies."
Molly Shaheen's Facebook page also says she: "Lives in Los Angeles, California."
But Madbury voting records show, and Molly Shaheen said in an interview, that she voted in Madbury last year in the January presidential primary, the September party primary and the November general election.
The statute defines "domicile for voting purposes" as "that one place where a person, more than any other place, has established a physical presence and manifests an intent to maintain a single continuous presence for domestic, social and civil purposes relevant to participating in democratic self-government."
She said she "got an apartment in Los Angeles a few months ago. I was living at my parents' house when I voted in the last election. And I was in school in San Diego before that.
Shripal Shah, a spokesman in Sen. Shaheen's office, had no comment on this report, while attorney Bill Shaheen, Molly Shaheen's father, who registered the business in New Hampshire in 2011 as a limited liability corporation, did not return calls seeking comment.
Bill Shaheen told BuzzFeed.com, "I didn't pick the name. That's her name. But I encouraged her to start her own business because she's a very talented girl."

The lighter side of luxury
By Scott Birch
On a glorious day in Dubai, out on the terrace of The One & Only Royal Mirage, ladies are lunching and the affluent are enjoying afternoon tea. Nothing unusual there. Then at another table, a rather dashing French gentleman is holding court surrounded by enough ladies to make up a netball team. Again, nothing so unusual there. But one thing did seem amiss.
Unless I was very much mistaken, all of the eight were smoking – the gentleman toking on a Clint Eastwood-esque cigarillo, the ladies daintily pulling on Gauloise (or so I would like to think). It was exactly as I had expected. After all, the contingent were in Dubai with the luxury Parisian brand ST Dupont, who specialise in, amongst other things, lighters.
ST Dupont has been around since 1872. One hundred and forty years later, and after a few false starts, the brand is now focused on four main pillars which it calls the Art of Living – writing instruments (that's pens to you and me), lighters, leather goods and accessories.
Alain Crevet is the cigar-smoking, rock guitar-playing president who has helped to turn ST Dupont around after some lean years and an ill-fated departure into men's ready-to-wear.
Going back to basics, Alain has brought the brand back to life and refocused attention on its strengths. And the brand itself is strong, particularly in the Middle East, where it has been operating for 60 years.
Alain and his netball team are here to showcase the latest products, aimed squarely at the female market and with a celebrity designer par excellence behind them. Karl Lagerfeld, the genius currently behind Chanel and Fendi, has created luxe lighters with a distinctly feminine feel (they look like lipsticks) and unique pens in the shape of his trademark fan.
Recently launched in Europe, this is the Middle East debut of the Mon Dupont range before Alain heads to Asia with his Lagerfeld loot.
An engaging, affable and refreshingly 'cool' president, Alain waxes about the wonderful lighters that are the ST Dupont signature and also the reintroduction of their bespoke luggage factory after a 65-year hiatus.
Interestingly, the last piece of the small production line in 1947 was a wedding gift for the future Queen Elizabeth II of England. The first piece produced at the new factory was an identical wedding gift for Prince William and Kate Middleton last year, at the request of President Sarkozy. Happy coincidence.
Steeped in history, with a clear focus and some handsome luxury items, expect to be hearing more about ST Dupont, especially in the pages of Concierge magazine.

No matter how descriptive, words really do no justice when describing some of the ridiculous saves Fox Lane netminder Conor Bunyan came up with this season.
A highlight tape was necessary to do them justice.
Charles Berger has seen enough circus stops to make a feature-length film, but the Foxes' head coach whittled the highlights down to a pair of stops before all-section picks were made. The first clip shows Bunyan making a flat-on-his-back save against Nyack/Tappan Zee. ...

I am a 44 year old man that is very heavy (250–260lbs(113-118kg)) and I am looking to buy my first mountain bike to do some riding on the weekend to burn off some of this fat I have.
250-260 pounds isn't that heavy.You may not need to worry about weight at all. See if you can find the information from the manufacturer about weight limits for their bikes. For a mountain bike that you intend to use for what it was made for, you're probably within the weight limit the bike is designed for. You may want to avoid the lightest weight stuff (carbon) unless you check the weight specs. But that's mostly stuff on the more expensive bikes. Some of the parts that normally wear out will likely wear out faster for you than for somebody lighter, but that's no big deal. If you plan to do tougher things with the bike than it was made for (jump a trail bike, for instance) you could run into problems. Stick with getting a bike that's intended for what you plan to do with the bike. For instance: 1. Trek Bikes Weight Limits: 2. Specialized Bike Warranty Policy (PDF) (weight info near the bottom): In other words: avoid the carbon/composite seat posts, handlebar stems and handlebars and you'll be fine with this brand. 3. Cannondale 2010 User's manual (PDF) (Starting at page 52)
Don't go full suspension - it at $1000 price point its a gimmick, and at your weight, you would need highend stuff for it to be adjustable enough to be useful. I am sure you can spend less, (I ride off-road with a guy who's 220lbs, hes really fit and all muscle, rides hard and fast. His sub $1000 bike stays in one piece), unless you are looking for serious off road use. I would strongly recommend buying form your local bike shop rather than Kmart. They should be able to put you oto a bike that will meet you budget, fit you properly and give you advice. They will also be able to maintain it for you. If they can't put you on a bike within your budget look for one that has lots of kids bikes, they will understand the budget, and wont try to tell you that you need the lycra clothing to go with it. |
As someone who weighs in at 375lbs, I can tell you that a good build will hold up just fine. I would stay away from box-store bikes (Walmart, K-Mart, etc) and shady bike shops, as they tend to cut corners in components and overall build quality. Hit up your local bike shop and let them know your worries. A good bike shop will probably have some great suggestions for you. In my case, I prefer steel bikes (started on a Trek, then went to Surly). I know that From my understanding, aluminum bikes are stronger, but I have a mental block against "lighter", so I stick with steel. The only problem I have run into was wheel quality. Once I went to hand-built wheels with quality components, I stopped having problems. Right now I ride a Surly Ogre with 36 spoke wheels atop Surly New Disc hubs; they are pretty much bullet-proof. |
I agree with the others: your weight is not that much of an issue for a decent quality well under $1k bike. I'm 175lbs now, but when I first started riding at 360lbs I rode a Specialized Big Hit Mountain bike. About $1,600 and overkill for the on-road riding I did. I now use a simple Trek Hybrid, and love it.. no clunky clumsy mountain bike.. (unless of course you are using it off road.. I never did and never intended to). The bottom line is don't overthink it. Find the weight limits. Some kind person listed Trek's above.. and there are other brands as well.. and go for it.. Just move and watch the carbs and calories and the weight will fall off. |
You might look into something like the Kona Hoss, which I believe is no longer made but can probably be found used. Here are some reviews on MTBR. The most critical thing to selecting a bike will be getting strong wheels, crankset, seat & post, pedals, and fork. These are the components that bear most of your weight. You can probably start with almost any mid-range mountain bike and just make a few changes:
Bottom line: You don't need to spend $1000 plus, unless you want to. You can probably find a decent used bike on Craigslist for $200-300, and then budget another $200 for some simple upgrades. You should also invest in a nice pair of bike shorts. There are lots of non-spandex options that look just like regular street shorts. Once you start riding and losing weight you may find you want a different type of bike or something fancier... Have fun. |
Being 240 LBs and now being on my third bike I thought I would throw this in.
Now I ride a Surly disk trucker, it's been 7 months and all is well. I don't commute anymore but do 25 mile morning rides with plenty of hills 3 times a week. Fingers crossed the Surly will hold up it's a nice ride. |
I'm a heavier rider (250-260) and the first thing I do when I purchase a new mounain bike is invest a good chunk of change into better front and rear rims. In this day and age, the stock rims are pretty weak and tend to break first in the spokes. It's also not uncommon to have a bent rim when going off a curb. I should also note that I punish my bikes when I'm out doing distance rides (20 miles or greater) or offroad. I went through three rims one time within a month of buying a bike in the past. |
I fit in to that weight category and I ride a Trek superfly 100Al dual suspension bike. I do ride it hard and even being the biggest bloke in the group that I ride with, I can out ride most of the lighter blokes. I ride the bike hard and unfortunately I do regularly break things. I have re-spoked the rear wheel with heavy duty spokes after breaking too many spokes, but recently I broke the rim so I now have a much stronger new wheel. I also wear out the rear suspension bushes approx. every 8-12 months. The running gear (chain, chain rings and cassette) also gets replaced every 6-8months. But having said this I ride about 8-10000km a year and most of that off road and often giving it a hard time (do you see this common point I keep bringing up). So what I am trying to say is, get yourself good equipment but be prepared to do extra maintenance especially if you give it a hard time. But the main thing is get out there and enjoy it and don't give up. About 4years ago I was just over 370lbs and now I am around the 250lbs (I hope to drop a few more as riding has helped heaps) |
I was a daily bike commuter in the 325lb range for almost two years. I rode both a restored '70s Raleigh Record Ace street bike and an Electra Townie 21D. Lessons Learned:
I am two metres tall, 124 kgs (272 lbs) and ride a collection of road and mountain bikes. I am aggressive and fast and have never worried about the bike coping. I ride cobblestones and speed over driveway lips, tram and rail tracks and the like. My current fave bike is a cheap factory excess frame I found on eBay and equipped with a decade old collection of parts of a frame I did manage to break after 10 years of hard riding. .. You might need to get decent (that does not mean expensive) wheels. But I would likely replace the factory tires for something with a lower profile, slimmer (yes, slimmer) and faster, if you are mostly riding on pavement. Or relax and just wait until the wheels need replacing. They will not collapse into dust. The rims will get flattened, spokes break... You will live. |

My point was exactly that: 9800GT and 9800GTX are slightly different chips, which is reflected in the performance shown using the proprietary driver. Yet there's like a 50% difference between the two when using nouveau. I don't see how that doesn't spell trouble.
As a former owner, I'm ROFL ATM at your second statement. 8800GT better then most new cards? Better than most entry level new cards, maybe. It's certainly not better than a GTX260, GTX460 or a GTX660Ti (I owned all of them) or their faster siblings. Again, my point was that if the GT220 is a member of the 200 series (I'm not sure, manufacturers often rebrand their previous generation into newer generation, low-end parts), the newest card in this comparison is four(!) generations old.
I've been using Nvidia graphics cards for several years and have been very satisfied. Nouveau driver development is interesting, but I won't try it until it is as good or better than Nvidia's proprietary driver.
you didnt read that 9800gtx was underclocked ?
chinese and japanese are similar too if you ask me
also 4 generations ?
maybe on paper, but not in architecture
8800 was a revolution in gpu design, at least as far as nvidia is concerned
next step was in the 400 series
next step is in the 600 series, and only the high end part
but nothing revolutionary in them
also if you look at the TDP of a GTX 260 compared to a 8800gt, youl see most its gain is in the "put more stuff on the chip die" department
8800gt is in between a 240 and 250 bout in performance and power consumption
and if this card heats my room too much i dont wanna know how much an 460 does
(edit; according to wiki not by much, 460 that is, 260 buuuuurns)
also the low end cards in the newer series are utter crap
nvidias marketing nonsenses are a prime example of big companies confusing people

The OSS drivers work fine for general use (in most cases) but those who prefer higher-end or higher-performance cards choose the binary drivers for obvious reasons.
Neither's entirely satisfactory, and quite frankly, arguing in favor of throwing out one or the other is foolish and not well-founded. I've seen some catastrophic failures with each. Given the (insane) complexity of graphics cards and the secrecy surrounding the hardware, it's not remotely surprising that nouveau is where it is.
I think the efforts of the developers are underappreciated and could be vastly improved if NVidia would be more cooperative in providing information about their cards. Fat chance of that happening any time soon, however.
Let reminds that majority of operating systems including Microsoft Windows installed from scratch use generic driver by default for common use which are no different than OSS drivers.
In that perspective, Nouveau developers deserved credits to support almost all Nvidia videocards hardware as possible rather than worrying about speed. Nouveau driver is much better than the legacy nv driver by a long shot with decent hardware acceleration. It is hardly surprising nouveau appears slower than Nvidia official driver knowing that other generic drivers from different operating system have similar performance.
Faster trash is still trash, no matter how people want to spin it. And it's not 10% slower, it's easily 20 - 30% slower and even more under different circumstances. And GPU drivers are real complex beasts; just because they return a 15% slower performance than the blob when underclocked does not (and will not) mean that these numbers will scale accordingly when reclocking support is finally (if ever) implemented.
Business 101. obsolescence drives demand. Demand drives revenue, revenue drives economies.
The only credit I'll give nouveau for is that it has reached a point where I will seriously consider not dumping it in preference of the blob for the next Linux install i'm attempting 3 weeks from now. Which is definitely much better than what I have got to say for RadeonSI.

it in flames by using wrong voltages that they have to guess.
Three generations old, according to http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/CodeNames - which is basically the same as what gens said. A lot of people still use one - eg https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...y/+bug/1000427 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...n/+bug/1014603 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...s/+bug/1090111

Wildcats will need to contend with Fargodome noise
A BONE-CHILLING breeze and temperatures several degrees below zero greeted University of New Hampshire football players as they stepped off the airplane a few minutes after noon on Thursday.
The Fargodome itself will be a comfortable 70 degrees, but North Dakota State University and its rabid fans will be out to turn up the heat on UNH in a major way.
The Fargodome has a well-earned reputation for being a tough place to play and the 18,000-plus likely to be in attendance will rock the building in support of their beloved Bison."We've been to a lot of loud places," said Paul Chapman, UNH director of strength and conditioning. "Rutgers was loud, Montana State was loud, Northern Iowa was loud. This is significantly louder than those. It's the loudest around. By far."
UNH practiced on Tuesday and Wednesday this week at the New Hampshire Sportsplex in Bedford to get the feel for playing indoors and also to pipe in loud music and try to simulate the atmosphere in the Fargodome and work on getting their plays in and called.
"I don't think that's going to be much of a factor," Goldrich said. "The good thing is we're not a huddle team. It's not like we'll have to be talking to one another, so if it gets too loud we'll be able to overcome that. We hope."
"The biggest thing is how we handle the noise on offense and how we contain their power and Jensen," McDonnell said.
Brock Jensen is North Dakota State's outstanding senior quarterback who has passed for 30 touchdowns and run for eight more and has been intercepted just six times.
McDonnell says the Bison, in a way, are a combination of a couple of UNH's Colonial Athletic Association rivals: He likens their power offense to Towson's and their defense to William & Mary's.
Only two teams came within 18 points of North Dakota State this year: Kansas State in a 24-21 Bison win in their opener on the road and Northern Iowa in a 24-23 Bison win at home on Oct. 5.
"Against Northern Iowa, they stuck to their game plan and just ran it down their throat," said UNH senior safety and captain Manny Asam.
The Wildcats will look to get out to a good start.
The Wildcats will see if they can do a better job of dealing with the noise and the explosive Bison.
Santos, the quarterback who kick-started UNH's run of 10 straight playoff appearances in 2004, led the Wildcats into a bunch of tough places to play.
