Today, 8 o' clock in the morning.
I get out my building, all shiny in business suit, tie, shirt and everything.

I'm almost getting into my car when a nice girl in blonde hair nearby looks at me. I look at her. She stares at me and I do the same.

Everything lasts so long, 2 or 3 seconds. I'm going to say something when, all of a sudden, she, touching her hair, says: "your hair... here on the left: it's kinda messy".

Gosh.

The words I was going to say die in my mouth... I can barely say "thank you", smiling.

She understands the disappointment and she gives me a huge smile.

At least she didn't say "It's that....it's... hair gel?"

I told you so: DRM destroyed Spore fama

2 Comments

I told you how to deal with your biggest competitor - pirates - and DRM in videogames.

Via Consumerist I found out that the Amazon webpage for Spore (the long awaited videogame by the genius Will Wright) is completely full of bad reviews (so far, 2016 users gave a 1-star rate to the game and only 200 a 2/5 stars rate).

spore sucks. DRM too

The reason? DRM!

If you want an hint how to avoid the DRM for well-paying customers, take a look at this webpage.

After the jump some of the comments (pasted from Consumerist)

According to Ducati website, the Hypermotard 1100 will be available in white too.

They're not the first who dress that bad-ass-bike in white. That's mine some months ago. :)

Nope, the title doesn't refer to some amazing job posting.

 

All those nerds out there are gettin' wet for the upcoming (two hours left, I think) Apple's event in San Francisco.
