Video about the demo at RealTimeConf here https://vimeo.com/77376238


This is the craziest thing I have seen all week!

Short clips of people looking utterly bewildered flying by while a GIF of what I can only assume is the creator trying to explain the features of the site by pointing. All mixed in with large cubes of meat!


For the record I love it, great job!


As do I, I'm a sucker for all web cauldrons of weirdness, case in point: http://artichoke.meatspac.es/post/126

Also, I'm not sure what these are: http://carne.meatspac.es/ http://artichoke.meatspac.es/


Some folks always grump about how social media is just an endless, random stream of strobing images and gibberish, but I never expected it to be literally true.


Meatspaces is right. Hello, white males.


No flood protection whatsoever is making this even more useless than it was previously.


goatse'd less than 10 seconds in. Sounds about right.


All great web services are measured in their initial "time til dicks" — or TTD.*

*Dicks can be substituted for Goatse.


Thank you everyone who just joined in my side-to-side game :)


yeah side to side was fun, I also enjoyed spins


I was there


legit


Would be amazing if you broke it down into channels/niches/rooms/categories.


Cool concept. I can see this becoming a better way to browse and find random video chat partners. Especially as a girl, you don't want to be going through a bunch of dick videos on chat roulette. This quickly summarizes who's available and whether they look like someone you would want to chat with.


What?


I made a Firefox add-on that automatically scrapes the GIFs on Meatspace as they come in:

(Early version! Feedback and contributions welcome!)


Doesn't scroll very well.


seems the posts self destruct after 10 minutes?


scroll broken on chrome, works on FF though


I like how many of the comments are people trying to find xss vulns


Wow this had me laughing quite a bit, I love this community <3


RATE LIMITING PLEASE


Fully agree.... someone was being a total troll on there. w0mp.


Can't get the delay right with the shot. There should be a counter that's like "3 2 1 SHOOOTING"


I had to force quit my browser. I guess my old Core 2 Duo isn't up to chats anymore ...


Funny how you can see all the xss attack attempts.

Also, I wonder why some people get a gif.


Because we hit "Allow" when it asks you for webcam.


This is awesome, but my camera isn't working?


Annnnd spammers ruining it already...


I was that asian boy. #mozilla ftw


if this were a hackathon project at hackmit, you probably would be #1. lol


Had a lot of fun! Thanks!


Wow... pretty damn neat


someone strlen() that pi numbers guy:/


nothing more fun than testing string buffers with pi to a million digits


Awesome.


Such fun!
