Its nothing to do with what I think about porn, it has a practical use that allows people to quickly identify with the subject matter and to allow software to classify it as so.
The conservative government simply did not want this to happen, and they have successfully lobbied hard to stop these practical namespaces to be implemented.
Creating an Internet wasteland of "filth" may have some merit, but I highly doubt it will lead to an increase in people watching it. Most large, modern cities have "saucy" areas, but just because they are there doesn't mean every citizen visits everyday.
I still believe this process needs to be apolitical as noted, without government intervention - its the only way. I do not accept that the US has a higher ground than other forward thinking countries in this matter.
The demo was so much fun, playing co-op with a friend was really hard. We had to try the scenerio a good 5 times before we finished it.
The game has a sense of urgency, my heart was pounding during the first invasion of zombies into the house. The game requires a level of strategy I hadn't seen before.
To all these people that are whinging about the controls, it's refreshing that a somewhat different approach to game playing has been released. I'm tired of all the Doom wannabes.
Shame on the media for beating up the story regarding "media-fueled race controversy over the fact that Africa's zombies". Here's News! Its in Africa! If the scene was in New York, then you have got a point, but this is just blatant attempt to stir the pot in order to get reviews.
I'm definitely going to buy this game when it comes out.
I've worked on very large directory deployments.
10 million user accounts.
We were using Novell e-Directory for the authority user database and AD downstream via DirXML for compatibility/legacy reasons.
Remember, Novell basically wrote the book on directory services. Microsoft just copied their implementation.
You can use ZENworks to store Group Policy objects but it will take much more than a Slashdot article to explain these concepts.
The beauty of eDirectory is that Novell have agents for basically every platform that is worth a damn, try that natively on Windows.
When you're dealing with something as critical as a central directory you don't want to mess about. If you have to throw some money at it to ensure some accountability and support then do it. Windows AD works as advertised, but it only works with Windows - you're on your own with anything else.
There is third party companies that have written software that bridge the gap to manage UNIX systems, users, applications, policy which from what I've seen works pretty well.
At the end of the day it comes down to understanding your environment, budget constraints, support, IT strategy, applications, business/IT partners.
Oh yeah one more thing, this big install is for an education body.
