As someone who's actually traveled outside the country (and is in Korea as I post this), I call bullshit. Views of the U.S. vary from place to place, just as the views on anything else do. And no country is in any way united behind any one extremist position (e.g., "the U.S. is barbaric").
of course korean views might be _slightly_ biased considering the massive economic and military support by the us gov.
The slow decline in what? Whether or not a bunch of has-been European powers approve of how we do things? Cry me a fucking river. I'm far more interested in what up-and-coming powers think of us - y'know, the people who'll actually matter during the 21st century. Like Japan, China, Korea, Indonesia, Malaysia, Brazil, etc. About the only European nation worth listening to these days is Germany.
you obviously missed to realize, that the happy bbq with angela the other week was a well orchestrated pr spectacle with selected locals. several major german newspapers and tv stations ran polls and each one clearly showed, that bush and his politics are strongly disliked by the germans. I'd say its mostly the same for any other country in western europe. Who's left in your coalition of the willing besides nations getting tons of money and support or supporting us military bases? I never experienced a more common attitude between colleagues and friends with views from the right to the left than that the us behaviour is disgusting (ignoring human rights/geneva convention, lying about wmd and other stuff, torture, killing civilians, swift wiretapping etc). You really think that Indonesia, Malaysia (two mostly muslim countries) and the whole south and middle america (remember brazil treating only us immigrants the same way your immigration handles guests) think better of the us? you should consider to read some news-sites outside your perfect fox/cnn world....
After using 3ware pci p-ata controllers (2/4 Ports) for years and enjoying their great linux support, i needed more space (huge audio cd collection ripped with cdex, regular tv show recordings, digicam).
I didn't want to buy an expensive server mobo for the pci-x slots needed by newer 3ware cards so i started with a nforce4 939 from asus and its onboard sata + one medium prized promise. 8 250gb seagate 7200 drives equals a solid 1.5TB using mdadm (raid5, 1 spare) and lvm2 on top of it. Never again, evil driver situation with nforce and promise and after a massive data corruption (endless fschks) I went on to an areca 1220. Afaik the only available 8-port (12/16 avail.) for pci-express. after an upgrade of the mobo's bios as mentioned in arecas FAQ, i now have a decent raid6 with 1.5TB. This would allow 2 simultaneous drive failures against 1 with the former setup. Easy driver installation on rhel4 (centos), great management tools and webinterface. I'd never go back....
and neither you have to justify that your a perfect rolemodel for the reason why the US is making almost double the pollution and waste on this planet as everybody else...besides not signing kyoto i might add.
but hey...its your own business right. just invade another of those terroristic countries with loads of oil if it gets to expensive/rare.
a few minutes is a long time these days. what about automated realtime alerting for grabbed userid/pin/otp...doens't sound like an very hard thing to do. imho even a more sophisticated automated attack isn't impossible. think of keylogger/phishing with triggered money transfer using the just sniffed login-information within seconds/minutes. i'm sure we'll be there in the future...
i might be wrong but weren't there reports of people getting problems with police while walking around with freedom t-shirts publicly? what about the endless discussion about strong/explicit language on tv/radio. both imho examples of free speech at it's best.
I wonder which layer model (iso, dod, other?) they took. Looks like iso/osi to me and if that's the case

based on tcp/udp port numbers? that would be layer 4, right? Imho Layer 3 applies to ip-address only.

use the screensaver with the "blank screen"-feature enabled (seti-screensaver settings). this increases performance on 95/98/nt systems dramatically. the gfx stuff obviously comsumes more than 20%...still slower but not _that_ poor.

and of course the US laws are famous for their respect for privacy. everybody knows that.

I thought the application layer is layer 7?
