Well it's more like a zoom meeting but you get the point. Seen lots of silly videos of it on tiktok.
Anyone seen this Portal from NYC to Dublin?

This "Portal" concept linking cities is pretty neat

They put it in the shittest place in Dublin, and because of the timezone difference the New Yorkers are going to see a ton of drunken people coming out of pubs late at night.
This genuinely makes the whole thing even better.This "Portal" concept linking cities is pretty neat

Yeah, I've seen it. Dublin is out of pocket.

Dublin 'portal' to see changes after 'inappropriate behaviour'
The 'portal' allows people in Dublin and New York to connect via a live video feed.
Changes will be made to the way the 'Portal' installation in Dublin is operating due to the "inappropriate behaviour" of some of those who are using it, Dublin City Council has said.
The "technical solutions" will go live in the next 24 hours, the council said, adding that it will continue to monitor the use of the art installation which connects Dublin and New York via a live visual link.
The council said a very small minority of people had been engaged in the inappropriate behaviour at the portal which is located between O'Connell Street and North Earl Street in Dublin city centre and that it had been "amplified through social media".
"While we cannot control all of these actions, we are implementing some technical solutions to address this and these will go live in the next 24 hours. We will continue to monitor the situation over the coming days with our partners in New York to ensure that Portals continue to deliver a positive experience for both cities and the world."
Dublin City Council has not specified what technical changes will be made.
Reports in the New York Post newspaper said that viewers in the US had seen people in Dublin exposing body parts, making inappropriate gestures and holding up footage of 9/11 since the installation opened last week.

I was on the NY side yesterday (before dark), was a neat little thing, its more interesting as an art/performance experiment than any sort of communication.
They'll turn if off after 10PM.Dublin 'portal' to see changes after 'inappropriate behaviour'

It's probably better that they used what appears to be a pretty low quality screen.
The risk that it would be damaged seems quite high (and would get higher the move expensive it appeared to be), so it's probably better to have something relatively low quality that will last while than something high quality that gets destroyed quickly.
If it was somewhere 'indoors' or protected, then maybe a higher quality screen would be better as it would be more protected, but not where it's located in my opinion.
