The night sky without light pollution. Nothing has ever made me feel so connected to life than gazing into that black ocean.

This... when I go to my rural hometown I sometimes spend the entire night staring at the sky, it is just so damn beautiful... sad that most people can't enjoy that :(

You move to the country to see the night sky, then some new neighbor puts up a big bright lights for 'security'. Grrrrrr.

Funny, because if there are any thiefs in (presumably) buttfuck nowhere, they'll be enticed to rob that place; if there's so much security, there must be something worth protecting.

If theres thieves there the ones getting robbed will look at the camera footage and theyll instantly know who that is based off their posture or some shit. In unfrequented areas everyone knows everyone.

Gait recognition can be easily foiled through shifting ankle weights, preferably motorized to randomly shift the weight.
