I usually glance at the Techcrunch live blog[1] every 10-15 minutes for WWDC keynotes.

Since it is a text-stream (with a few photos), it's helpful if you don't have an apple device to view the stream or are busy with office work or meetings to watch the live video stream.

You'll need to use an Apple device to view this stream. -iOS 4.2+ -Safari on OSX -Apple TV

If you are using Chrome press F12 to open the devtools. Then press Esc and to to the "Emulation" tab. now choose an iPad or something and spoof your user agent as that.

it's dumb, but i think that should work. You will need to have QuickTime installed though, I don't think there's a way around that.

Is there a stream for Linux users? (without vm)

I've got it working by downloading the referenced mov-file, with the QuickTime UserAgent, and opening it in VLC:

    $ curl -A QuickTime/7.6.2 -O http://p.events-delivery.apple.com.edgesuite.net/14poiunaeporfnsvpobjuanefvpjb6a/refs/14pijbefvoihbfva6_sl_ref.mov

Discrimination for real. what's next ? Google banning safari browser from accessing search?

It probably cuts down on the number of people that can stream it making it less expensive for Apple and the stream more stable. And at the end of the day it's an Apple developer conference - Apple developers typical have Apple hardware which this can be viewed on.

What about freebsd and clang developers whose work gets used prominently in apple products but who dont own apple hardware.

Macrumors usually does ok, and has a nice auto-refresh feature that I leave running
