I think I understand why my play through is going to take longer.  I'm lagging behind the increase of the money and xp rewards.  If I would just wait, I would have all the money and xp i need.  I see an item i want and cant afford, I'll go out and grind out some money to purchase it(whilst low level).  I'm starting to find that the items I wanted would have been easy to get if I just waited. 

add.:  Now that I look back on things,  this may also explain why all my other play throughs in other games are running long. 

I purchased a tambourine.

Vibrate your wrist real quick while grasping it firmly and just create a rhythm.

The Call of Duty app sucks hard. First of all I can't connect to online services. Okay doesn't matter, I only want to play campaigns.Donwloaded MW2, MW3 and BlOps campaign.I click on MW2.... nothing happens. Restarted the app and all. Nothing happens. I have to re-install I guess?I click on MW3... cool that works as it should.I click on.... wait why is there no BlOps even though even the app is telling me that it's installed? Let's see if a re-install can fix that problem...

Not sure why people say the Infinite Warfare campaign is good. In my opinion it's below average for CoD standards.

Advanced Warfare has one of the best, mostly thanks to Kevin Spacey.

Microsoft's AI Demand Under Scrutiny as Investors Seek Payday | Reuters

Been saying this, the AI bubble will burst eventually and it's going to be horrific on the industry, companies heavily investing into AI are promising their investors the heavens, ridiculous exaggerations, AI will change the world forever, don't worry, keep investing tens of billions, we're so close to AGI! Eventually investors will get sick of investing tens of billions with little returns for a imaginary future and it sadly won't be only the AI sector which suffers when their chase and promises to change the world forever fall flat on their face.

Who knew impatient investors were what may save humanity, or at least just slow it down, from being taken over by rogue AIs

I doubt it, AI systems isn't anything new instead they are just mature code and systems that are coming to term more than anything else.  The fact of the matter is, AI systems will kill a lot of jobs.  Already a lot of jobs will be replaced with AI systems especially jobs that reply on analyzing data.  Jobs that use to take multiple people will be reduced to just a few if not even just one.  The whole call center industry is going to get flipped very soon as most of those jobs go to AI systems.  Its going to get messy probably quicker than anyone want because one thing business like more than anything is making money and reducing head count.

In this case, can't really blame them, these companies are spending billions upon billions investing into AI but receiving little in returns, investors are being promised glorious things will come, eventually, if they keep on waiting, as these companies pour billions down the drain, now I don't doubt that AI will result in some good things for greedy businesses and some bad things for workers but the sheer scale promise and overhype surrounding AI from these corporations is the thing that will bite them in the ass. Like promising to reach Pluto but only reaching the Moon, Lol.

I'm not a Halo fan in the slightest but I do like Twin Stick shooters. I learned of Spartan Assaults existence. Had enough 1.25 cent off coupons to get it for a buck. Completed act A. Not bad. Decent little twin stick. Not amazing. Not bad. It scratches an itch so far.
