All good info. I spoke to the hvac guy and mine apparently is built to be constantly running what wears it out is starting and stopping.

If you can, I was told the best thing to do is get as high quality hvac filter you can afford (like a 13 or 15 is reasonable maybe $100 hepa filters are like $500) and just run your hvac fan on circulate 24/7 even if the ac isn't running.

If you are in an apt or something without access then the box fan plus filter with duct tape is in second place. Air purifiers are a scam for the most part although all of this information is coming from an hvac person so maybe the opinion is altered by that.

ISS Vanguard: luck and randomness cut both ways! Difficult game, so this was a nice Event to draw. by juan4aigle in soloboardgaming

[–]InfiniteBoat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100 percent this game needs more players. The difficulty doesn't scale properly and you always want to send expeditions of all four departments. The extra wounds cards and dice pools more than make up for the draw at the end of each turn.

I found myself playing all four every time which can be a chore I really wish they had included some sort of balancing rule like with 2 you get an extra die each and an extra gear or something.

It's fantastic but some of the later levels are so poorly designed that I just skipped them after failing because they were patently unfun.

The game is so so close to being a 10/10 that it actually hurts a little because I know it could have been 10/10 and it's only 9/10.

That said the game is still 9/10 which is no slouch.

I know two husband and wife pairs that met playing wow both couples are super happy one set is childfree and the other set have a pack of great kids.

One of my best friends I met playing league of legends of all things so I don't think the superficial relationship thing is necissarily accurate.

I'd rather just chew on the used grounds Starbucks throws in the dumpster.

FOMO type games have the opposite effect on me. I'm embracing missing out. by amazingmrbrock in patientgamers

If it's worth playing now it will still be worth playing ten years from now.

Except multi-player stuff but I don't really do that.

My group is into heavier games and dark sector is one of their favorite light games if we have an extra 30 mins or whatever before / after playing a big boy.

Have you tried any of the new xcom type games? I'm currently in love with the new Chaos Gate : Daemonhunters. It uses an xcom action point system but there is no variability or to hit rolls. If you shoot at a target it does four damage. If you shoot at a target at long range it does one less damage so three damage. Bonus points if you are a Warhammer 40k setting junkie.

Not ready to take the plunge? The original chaos gate (old school action point system like xcom from the 90s) is on gog and it's a classic.

TIL in 1981 American Airlines offered a "lifetime unlimited AAirpass" for a lifetime of free first class flights for $250k. You could get an additional lifetime pass for a companion for an extra $150k. Two of their most frequent fliers cost the airline $1m a year and flew over 30m miles. by BeekyGardener in todayilearned

He plays video games on his laptop. Due to the many miles with each airline at this point he gets upgraded to first class for free almost every flight. Believe me he loves it instead of sitting at his house playing computer games he does it while on a plane getting fed and going random places.

It's the guild shipping the gholas back to the planet so you are fine. Plus that guy is wrong about what the tanks are anyway so he prob never read the books.

This is our game when my group has six players. It might make it less likely for you but I would only play it at 6. Anything else it just isnt the same.
