This is a very troubling trend, the confusion of information and pointers to information. Yes, pointers is a geeky programmer concept, but the address of a brothel can be public information while the brothel remains a private residence for ladies and generous gentlemen. When trouble happens, you don;t eliminate the address, you close the brothel.
Here the concept of requiring links to child pornography be removed is attempting to be extended to links to examples of copyright violation. While you can make an argument that there is an overriding social purpose for obliterating mere references to child pornography, you cannot make the same argument in what is a property rights issue. But it appears that EA would like to do so. Huh. There's a quandary. Would the copyright law be upheld if the copyright violated was that of child porn?

I think the stardrive's limitation near the core is wrong. It should become more and more elliptic, pointing to the center, to be more realistic.
Then again, this means you'd have a hell of a time getting back home. But that's what happens when you fly into a supermassive black hole.

The core is also a black hole, but apparently in Splotch, it isn't, so meh.
Actually, it was a black hole. It took you elsewhere and was clearly black hole-like.

Llamas have been with Maxis since the first SimCity, IIRC. Some of the earlier games, like SimLife, SimAnt, SimSafari, and SimTown didn't have llama references, but those are OLD.

I found out that if you spin the galaxy fast enough in the beginning, it vomits pictures of the developers or coders or commissars, or whatever. How many rare stellar formations have you found? I've seen the binary system, the black hole, and the stellar disk. Are there any others?
