Not the same - different ideas. Cat aquarium is for cats, for their relax. But meow camera is for watching by human. From description: "It provides a platform for many cat feeders around china which can have food dispensed to them through the app." I don't understand how it's working

If there was a button to feed them for a small donation id be broke.

There is in the Purrr app if you install and open that.
This one immediately makes me want to whip out my credit card. Cute cat sitting at the food bowl waiting for someone to feed it. It's one of the ones listed under "feeders with hungry cats"
edit: credit card has been pulled out

The metadata at the bottom says the feeder is out of kibble. :( A small amount (8%) of snack left, though!

Was just wondering. I fed it some kibble but nothing came out

Reminds me of the days when you could look up public camera feeds with a specific string in a google search. Some of the camera pages had controls! Spent a day with friends in a college dorm scrolling through them.

If you have a premium Shodan[0] account, they have an ‘Images’ view which is filtered VNC and other Remote Desktop screenshots and links to view them directly with the IP. Lots of security cameras, some SCADA industrial access control screens, and lately seemingly people who I guess are hacking vulnerable Windows boxes and changing the wallpapers to anti Israel stuff.
I'm actually kind of surprised that most of these images are just advertising and shock imagery. I never expected adverts to be done through shodan, though I guess it makes sense.

Needs a "Back in Meow minutes" on the screen when they go off-camera.

Funny that The Feline Relaxing Place is currently the least "relaxed" place.
i'd love to have a sort of chatroulette/omegele app for my cats to "socialize" with other cats while I'm away, but it's the internet so I know that it'd get filled with trolls.
Thanks for bringing some joy to my day, I love whimsical projects like this

Why does everyone have the same container?

A chinese company Hello has created an app called Hello Street Cat - a livestreaming app that allows viwers to donate money to feed stray cats. Presumably, since it's the same company, maybe they purchased the feeders in bulk, that'll explain why the feeders look the same
But I wonder why some feeders are more decorated than others. For example Mr. Happy doesn't seem to have a container at all.

Isn't that what the "Feeders with hungry cats" category is? That's what I thought when I clicked around, at least.

Every time this is posted I wonder if one could improve the backend so it doesn't take 5-10 seconds for a video stream to connect.
Right now it's quite populated, but if I ever check it otherwise it's like this: wait 10 seconds, no cat, wait 10 seconds, no cat, wait 7 seconds, leave.

I get it, but also, it’s pretty amazing that it only takes 10 seconds to remotely activate and stream live video from a camera installed in a cat house placed on a sidewalk 6,000 miles away.

The "Feeders with Hungry Cats" dropdown filters to the active cameras.

60% of the time it works every time. Sometimes those are all empty as well, or maybe there's a racoon instead :)

They're in China so there's some inherent latency, but it only takes about a second to load each stream for me (in Europe).

There are many cameras spying on cats.
People are not concerned about private data being broadcasted of our feline overlords.

Cats aren't social species, they don't have the capability to understand what is and isn't private. If a cat wants to lick its balls it'll do that, even if the owner is watching.
Also, even if we wanted to push for some sick agenda that cats should have rights too, you can't really make a cat aware of said rights. Cats dont give a shit about cameras watching them

I was reading that this is actually for neutering cats and that there is some deep dark secret behind these, might be something else tho.

Yes, part of the use of this network is to track strays and neuter them. I don't think it's sinister though.
