I live in a fairly rural area with a very healthy population of deer. I have a dashcam video of a doe jumping out in front of my vehicle and just freezing there. Thankfully I was alert and had just enough time to to stop but came within 1-2 feet of hitting her. This was about 4 pm on the summer, so broad daylight. No headlights. But yeah a lot of times they do jump away, especially if they're not already in the road.

Yeah but they do the same shit when it's broad daylight / no headlights

I didn't even run the heat in my first apartment. It would get down to around 12C. On the weekends or if I was going to be spending a bit of time at home I would sometimes "splurge" and crank it up to maybe 18C. To state the obvious, yes I was quite poor.

I keep seeing this argument. I see a metric funckton of new construction and they are ALL 400k+ which is a lot for our smaller/mid city. Existing inventory is averaging the same.

Yeah that's my question. Like many others, I grew up with the single player only GTA experience. I have so many core gaming memories just fucking about in GTA 3/vice city etc. I just really hope we get a decent single player experience.

Average gas tax in the U.S. is 52 cents per gallon. Average consumption is 370 million gallons a day. That's not an insignificant amount of money.

It would be great if we could shift to a better system integrating better and much more robust public transit, but in much of the U.S. driving a car is the only option. I understand being upset with the system we have, but taking out your frustrations on many people who don't really have a choice is counterintuitive.

Funding for the development and maintenance of roads in the U.S. come from a variety of taxes such as vehicle registration fees, wheel taxes and taxes on gasoline and motor fuel. So , we do pay for using car infrastructure
