Interesting article.

It’s sometimes a placebo, but often still real, depending where you are in the world :)

The crossing pictured in the anime seems the kind most likely to be real, incidentally - a crossing on a straight stretch of road that isn’t at an intersection. There are several of these near where I live, and they’ll stay red all day long if nobody pushes the button.

The ones near me are especially satiafying to use, too. Because they don’t have to wait for an intersection sequence the light changes almost immediately when you push the button (if nobody else has recently pushed it) so it feels very powerful haha.

Lol, brilliant.

At first you are thinking “this is going to be so nice and compact and tidy” and then…

Love it though

Swiftfin is what I’m using for Plex on my Apple TV

It’s perfect for me because it supports direct stream and decoding of the file for playback on the Apple TV - because the Apple TV is capable enough to do that.

This is ideal because my NAS server is a venerable but now very long in the tooth HP Gen 8 microserver from 2014, so it doesn’t have the chops for reencoded streaming anymore.
