Am I just going to have to slog it out and wait, or do I let it sit for a very long time to get the 50,000 creativity to try those upgrades for the simulator?
Better to start over. I did that my first time, but was only 10 000 short so waited ti out. 50 000 will take a long time.

I played this game for like 5min and have absolutely no idea what you guys are talking about...

I guess I know what I'll be doing at work for the rest of the week!

So I ran this for a few hours and my graphics card kept glitching out. I suspect it is mining cryptocurrency in the background, as that is the only time that has ever happened before.

I have no evidence to support that beyond that observation though, so you can feel free to call it the ravings of a overworked tech guy.

I was able to get 10,000 with quantum computing.
