A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The original presentation is german speaking. There's human-produced english translation in a separate audio channel, thanks to volunteers aka angels.

Use the video settings, ie gear icon, to select the language.

I love that the websites and apps were done by Indian contractors. Nothing speaks "white power" stronger than being incapable of doing anything productive without non-Europeans helping out.

Best "tech demo" of the whole congress.

Also check out okstupid.lol where you can look at the profiles that were present on the site.

The website wasn't working for me earlier, but the wayback machine does have an archive of 6,640 users out of the 8,178 that seem to be on the website. Note that the wayback machine archive includes emails, while the current published version does not seem to.

OkStupid works for me here, though lemme check whether it was just cached on my end.

Edit: Nope, the Website is accessible, it just takes a while to load.

Profile pics are just going to be pigs with goatees and sunglasses.

Oo, I'll have to watch that then. Didn't really stand out to me in the first pass.

Edit: Peak live demo at the end

Aaaah that explains it.

Explains what? Your dating profile got deleted?
