Coffitivity [1], created well before the pandemic, provides similar ambiance for coffee shops.

Developer should limit the height of the main image to something like 80-90% of the viewport so that it doesn't hide the play button.

This is how AirPods might work in a few years. In any environment you will be able to turn up/down the different sound sources around you.

Creepy shit

To recreate it more authentically, additionally dip an old towel into stout and frying oil and hang over a radiator.

Where is the "fight after 8 pints of Guinness" toggle?

That would break the screen and lead to hospital.

Creepy will be when augmented sensory enhancements emphasize certain people, objects, and themes while obscuring others. I can't remember if that was a Black Mirror episode or not.

There's also http://imissmybar.com/ which was posted in the comments here a few weeks back.

That one works for me. But soundofthepub doesn't.. the play/pause buttons don't work here (the sliders work) - what in ublock's list do I have to enable to get it working? Everything from the actual site is green, it's only blocking google analytics stuff as far as I can tell.
