Video summary

The closing summary of the DO_BYTE 2026 event highlights a successful gathering marked by high engagement and efficient operations in both catering and technical sectors. The organizers reported serving approximately sixty-five dinners last night, with breakfast items like tomato butter and fruit being fully consumed, though vegetables remained partially uneaten due to lower popularity. In terms of food volume, the team utilized two deep fryers to cook 225 kilograms of fries along with sausages and steak, while logistics data indicated a total intake of over three hundred forty-three kilograms of food and nearly eight hundred kilograms of beverages distributed across hundreds of portions. Additionally, attendees enjoyed around two hundred rolls and sandwiches before being encouraged to pack leftover breakfast items for their journey home, ensuring minimal waste as the event wound down. Technically, the event was supported by robust infrastructure including internet connectivity via four uplinks, with peak Wi-Fi usage reaching 111 clients across various frequency bands, notably utilizing new WiFi 7 capabilities on the 6 GHz range. The video production team achieved remarkable speed in releasing content within an average of five hours and twenty-three minutes after recording sixteen talks and eleven workshops that filled the workshop rooms to capacity. Data transfer statistics showed a download volume of nearly two hundred gigabytes against one hundred ten uploaded, while field telephones were deployed for communication needs involving up to seven units and direct lines, supported by extensive cabling managed specifically thanks to Josef's switchboard setup. The conclusion emphasizes deep gratitude toward the numerous individuals and organizations that made the event possible through lending equipment, providing venues, or assisting with spontaneous tasks ranging from cooking and cleaning to streaming support. Special recognition was given to partners such as ChaosWest TV for their video technology contributions, Theo Dortmund student council for inventory loans, and various sponsors who provided essential items like deep fryers, pavilions, and scanners. The organizers also extended thanks to the core team members who worked tirelessly behind the scenes, acknowledging that without their efforts in advance planning and on-site execution, none of these achievements would have been attainable. Finally, an invitation was issued for interested participants to join next year's organization by providing feedback on areas for improvement, as the current group plans to dismantle the venue starting at four o'clock while offering remaining food to those staying behind.

Um, so the lounge probably went well yesterday. Munch, would you like some? Yes, we bought a deep fryer and with this fryer and the second one we also got, we fried 225 kilos of fries and an unknown number of nuggets. There were also sausages and steak. Uh, we don't have any figures on that. Um, and we handed out roughly 65 dinners last night. The tomato butter for breakfast has been eaten. The apples and bananas have also been eaten. Um, with the vegetables, things weren't so good; vegetables weren't very popular, so half of them are still left. Um, and about 200 rolls and sandwiches were eaten. There are still some good rolls left, and I think some cold cuts too. So before you go home, feel free to stop by the breakfast area upstairs and pack a lunch. We also put some bags there , so we don't have to eat so much afterwards. Exactly . In terms of content, we had 16 talks, 11 of which were recorded. I am impressed by how many people came here and gave a talk . Thank you for that. Likewise, 11 workshops. Thank you very much for that as well. The workshop room was practically full all day. Uh, our awesome video team achieved the fastest video release in 37 minutes, and uh, exactly average in 5 hours and 23 minutes. I think the video team wants an update in 3 hours and 50 minutes. Ah, hours and 50 minutes. Okay, thanks for that. [applause] The internet. Yes, we had internet here too , and usually a working connection. Uh, exactly, we had a total of four uplinks, because the more the better. But we only used about two or three of them. Um, and the third one was also rather accidental, when the charging cable had to be plugged in again at the bottom . Oh well. Um, in total we downloaded 198 GB and uploaded 110 GB . Um, most of you were probably connected via Wi-Fi, but we also had charging cables in the rear center at the café. We had a total of 111 Weifi clients at peak. So, in total, there are probably more, but that was the highest point with the simultaneously connected ones. Um, that results in a Side Health Score of 90. For further details, please contact TP-Link Engineers. Um, and um, exactly, we had this newfangled WiFi 7 with 6 GHz deployment here, and you can see in the graph on the right that several people were connected via 6 GHz. Otherwise, most of our devices were operating in the 5 GHz range, but we also had quite a lot operating in the 2.4 GHz range. Um, yes, exactly. Logistics. Um, Mark sent me some numbers . We had 343 kg of food in 383 portions. I'm not entirely clear on how exactly that's divided, and um, 800 kg of drinks for 49 crates. That's already more than a ton for such a small event. In addition, a large amount of material was transported. At this point, I'd like to thank Mark for all the shopping and transport. [applause] Exactly, we had field telephones. Um, that's what it looked like . There are also figures to support this. A flashing alarm cat for silent rehoming. Five participants was the maximum in a conference call, and in total there were seven field telephones and one direct line number. This is what it looks like when 200 meters of field cable have been unrolled, only to be rolled up correctly afterwards. Thanks to Josef for the field telephone switchboard. [applause] Yes, then we'll continue with printed materials. Um, I'm sure you've all admired our amazing signs . Um, somehow they have to be produced. We produced 82 different signs , a total of 163 print jobs, mostly with several signs. And that's why we unfortunately need a new toner cartridge. How many are you going to do? The system asks about restarting Inkscape. Unfortunately, our printing manager is currently busy, so I can only deliver it to you later tonight. Exactly . Now let's move on to the MVP, the most valuable Porter Split. Um, [laughter] exactly. Thanks to Wer for lending us this air conditioner in the workshop room [applause] and thanks to Loop for the glue gun in the attic. [applause] Exactly. Uh, now you can be glad that we're not at the Oscars and I'm not being ushered out. Therefore, there is now a long list of names, uh, that we would like to thank. Firstly, um, to the teams who organized the various tasks that were pending for this event . Astrid for the call for participation, Basic Bear for cooking, Josef for the field telephones, Kori for breakfast, Mark for logistics and shopping, Michael did the organization of the barbecue and fryer . Niklas Technik and Lounge Thunfisch and Loop did the video technology for ChaosWest TV with Chaoswest TV. Chodge raised awareness and helped a lot in other ways. Tunx organized the cleaning. Xoy helped organize the lounge, and Jannik organized the bar and awareness . Thank you very much. [applause] But also thank you to the many people and entities who have lent us things . Uh, a special thank you to the computer science student council at Theo Dortmund, where we simply packed up the entire student council. Um, mainly the inventory; we took a few people with us. Thanks to Itates Media for the radios, thanks to Midways for the deep fryer, thanks to RKG Event. um, for a good price on some of the lamps here. Uh, thanks to Velo Kitchen for the pavilion, grill, and a few other things. Wiring harnesses Wirzelt harnesses and thanks to the Association for the Promotion of the Conference of German-Speaking Informatics Societies EV for the spontaneous loan of scanners and switches and whatever else we might spontaneously need. Thank you very much. [applause] Exactly. And then also, uh, thanks to Chaoswest TV and Chaoswest TV EV, especially Thunfisch and Loop, uh, for the streaming, for the video recording, for uploading the videos and everything that goes with it . [applause] Exactly. Thanks to Lang August. Um, this is the front building where the Chaos meeting place is, where the event was, and the KCR, where we are right now, whose hall we were allowed to use, whose conservatory we were allowed to use. [applause] And of course, a big thank you to everyone who helped, all the angels and helpers who spontaneously stepped in . Thank you [applause] and thank you to all visitors, to all of you for being there. This wouldn't have been possible without you. [applause] Jannik, is there anything else you want to say? You just stand there like this. Correctly. Exactly . Well, we've already expressed our gratitude a great deal. I think that's exactly what you did so beautifully, and yes, but of course we also have to thank our dear Kernorger . Those include Luca and David, but of course also Neri and Falk, who unfortunately I think is n't here right now, right? Right, you know? Unfortunately, he has to move on, that's just how it is. Um, yes, so a big thank you for all the work you did beforehand, especially in advance, but of course also here at the event, without which none of this would have been possible . Thank you. [applause] Exactly. Yes, thank you for the thank you. Um, if anyone is interested in doing the core organization next year and doing all that nonsense again, um, exactly, feel free to contact us. We started organizing about three-quarters of a year in advance. Um, but because of that, everything was quite relaxed except for the last week and a half . Exactly . I already mentioned next year . Theoretically, something like that could be done again if enough people could be found. But we would like your feedback, we would like to know what could be improved next year, what you didn't like, um, what you would like to see added. Yes, exactly. Um, the link isn't there because the link can't be typed out, but you can find it in the chat and you'll also receive it all again via Prettic email. Exactly . Then we'll continue with the dismantling from 4 pm onwards, that's in about a quarter of an hour, we'll start with the dismantling . We appreciate everyone who stays a little longer and helps out. We have some food left for tonight so you don't starve. Um, exactly. I already said it. If you're leaving, feel free to take some breakfast with you. Uh, then there's not much left. And that's all for now, and hopefully see you next time . [applause]
