I found myself reaching for a book again yesterday. That probably means that my brain has adjusted to the sensory input from Berlin and can let it fade to the background. I guess I’m ready to go back home.
You know, it took me 4 days to realize there was no TV in the flat, and I only noticed because I saw the stereo’s remote and began wondering where the screen was.
The Spore Creature Creator has been released. Pretty. Me Want. However, the demo requires admin rights to install on my Mac, instead of simply allowing me to drop it on the Applications folder.
I’m very suspicious of EA’s track record – specifically, I smell robots. I’m not installing it.
Update: Yes, it’s got robots. It seems that the Mac version is a port of the Windows version using Cider, so the admin rights might also be to install the relevant libraries, but there’s definitely home-phoning DRM in there.
