Perhaps it should be mentioned that we are looking for a few more streams, particularly ones that have something happening at night as the stations are too dark to see anything.

For example, something like:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9pavMzUY-c

General guidelines are:
> Must be from Japan, interesting, minimum 480p, constant stream (none of those 2-frame-per-second streams), with ambient sound preferred.

Na, I moved the other direction. In Miyagi prefecture now, Higashimatsushima.

>>16945308
Monday and Tuesday are normal days, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are holidays.
Some schools will still have club activities on Golden Week, so there could be still be some qts in uniforms.

Japan does have sensor type junctions as well, overhead instead of under the road, but because they haven't really phased in roundabouts yet timed junctions make a lot of sense when you have so many traffic lights around because they can be timed in a sequence to move traffic.

Hello there

>>16938373
Aww, it's gone. It's a pity nobody saw the parade, have to remember about it for next year.

It was an interesting camera though. It showed me that Asian drivers really are as dangerous as their stereotype suggests. In the few short days the camera was live I saw multiple lorries blasting through the junction just as the lights were turning red, vans cutting corners and actually driving on the wrong side of the road, multiple cars speeding through the 7-11 carpark to bypass the junction and even a guy on a moped ramp up onto the path and drive along the path and pedestrian crossing in order to avoid the lights. Crazy. If the police set up a camera there, they would make thousands in fines.

>>16947773
Why is it gone? Is it going to come back?

>>16947783
It seems to have been set up specifically to show an annual samurai-style parade that happens on the first day of golden week. I hope it will come back for next year's parade.

>>16947773
That's honestly pretty normal for Japanese traffic outside of Tokyo and it's better than you'd think. There's an order to it. Most vehicles also blow the red when turning right, that's standard. Sometimes there's a pad in the middle of the road for people turning right to sit inside.

>>16946373
Now we're talking.

>>16947867
The two things Japanese people are really bad at when it comes to driving is stopping for red lights and speed.

Pretty much every day I see cars going through intersections after their light has already turned red, and I am not including the ones who were waiting inside the intersection to turn, only ones that cross the line after it has turned red.

I have been told by Japanese people that 10km/h over the limit is fine, 15km/h is usually okay, 20km/h is pushing your luck. From personal experience if you are driving on a semi busy two lane road at 10km/h over the limit and no way to pass then you will form a queue behind you, and it isn't uncommon to be overtaken for just doing 15km/h over the limit (even on a two lane road posted as no overtaking).

Part of it is probably because you just don't see that many police cars out patrolling. And if they are they have to have their lights flashing anyway so you spot them a mile away.

>>16947925
I've done 140km/h on the highways and had the police casually cruise past me, as did other traffic. Speed limits in Japan are only a suggestion.

>>16947932
Except when they decide to enforce it, and they sometimes do.

>>16947932
>>16947925
>>16947867

Are traffic accidents common then in Japan?

Yes, but you often hear about all the resorts that close down after the bubble and how bath houses are closing down because people prefer to bathe in the privacy of their own homes. Then you have more modern competition, like theme parks that are closer to where people live, and cheap jet travel allows you to go to Hawaii for the weekend.

On the other hand, onsens have maids!

>>16998615
Don't confuse bath houses with onsen. Bath houses usually are just normal heated water anyway.

I can't speak for any other companies, but I can for JR. Punctuality is key. Your job, quite literally, depends on it.

There are some JR routes with five second tolerances per stop. They're not a suggestion or a best case scenario. They're a requirement. Every single day, every time you make a stop. They'll tolerate, at most, around two screwups in a six month period. Then you're done. You're also done if someone even suspects you're going to screw up.

I can also assure you the rest of your working life there will be as hostile as the adherence to safety and timetables. Don't miss a signal announcement (they have cameras in cab, they know the exact moment you do), a timetable, a safety sign, a driver inspection, your scheduled break and lunch times, your driver changeover time, company holiday outings, or overtime.

Its an event train 会津浪漫号 and runs mainly on the weekends (schedule in the link above).

https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%BC%9A%E6%B4%A5%E6%B5%AA%E6%BC%AB%E5%8F%B7

Judging on the curve at the top front of the train its probably the AT-400 series (AT-401).

So I was finding weird that as early as 8 or 9pm the lights were all off, as they were today, but apparently it's just for the sake of energy saving? Anyways, close to 10pm lights came back up, this train passed on by and some minutes later went off again. Good to know.

To answer your question, I can't see any other way you can get up to Aizu without paying Y10k unless you are able to borrow a car or have lots of time and are willing to hitch-hike/cycle.

Some trains have it, some don't.
It seems to be most common on lines where some stops won't have people getting on/off and/or lines which have start and end points in (so not circle lines) so when the train is sitting around waiting to go back down the line people can close the doors after they enter the train (especially in the winter months).

Because they don't need them. I think Asian eyelids have evolved specifically to shade their eyes from the glare of the sun, which is why most won't need sunglasses like whitey does. Celebrities may be different because they probably got that eyelid surgery that removes their squint.

It's a shame you missed on the Aizu Wakamatsu station camera. It was worth leaving on the background or a second monitor all day long. You can find some videos on youtube about it. These ones are nice too.
This one http://live.ueda.ne.jp/bessyo.html is worth leaving on. The background sound of birds along with traffic is great.

That lady who works at the station is not wearing her yellow jacket as usual. She looks cuter like that.

I was recording a comfy 3 hour audio clip of rain and distant thunder last night only to try to load it for editing today and find out i fucked it up somehow and the file is corrupted.

How do you know if you are taking things too far?
Maybe i should get a pair of 4k monitors to hang on the wall.

Having more than two streams open at one time is taking it too far! But I see you are a man of duty. Keep Japan safe my friend. Report any alien sightings.

Will do, i just wish i would find more of the 2way audio cameras so i could scream at people in horribly massacred Japanese and see their reaction.

You should switch to a flavor of linux and use a tiling window manager, it would be perfect

Amazing. How does your bandwidth handle all these streams?

Nice!
Here's a thunder from some hours ago.

I'm the guy with only three and I'm not really sure honestly. They seize up every once in a while but now I'm down to two and it's not so bad.

Not sure if this one has been posted, pretty during the day with windmills

Is the driver giving a woman something?

4chan is probably not the best place for this but these threads are comfy so might as well. Anyone feeling like exploring these lines in the coming weeks? Due to work only weekends are OK for me but with tsuyu coming the onsen makes it a nice timing.

I'm >>17065583 and I'm doing a run around Fukushima, Tochigi and Ibaraki in a few weeks, but I don't think I'll have a weekend free unfortunately. I'm in Tokyo one weekend and meeting some other friends the next. Plus my route is all planned and hotels booked.

Sorry. I've actually met up with random 4chan people every time I've been over there so I would have.

>>17116307
Yes. He does that everyday several times a day.
Not sure what it is exactly. Looks heavy.

>>17116992

What why?

>>17123050
He probably thinks of 4chan users as being weird and maybe dangerous.

>>17123050
A lot of people here could be hesitant to give up their anonymity, at least i would be

CUTE

What happened to it?

I swear, I go away for a couple years and everything I love dies.
