I have a random question about Gaga - do you understand how the region locking works? I keep seeing recs to watch things on there and then when I go to look I find out it’s not available in my region. This is happening with big releases like To My Star 2 and Gameboys and even smaller things like Strongberry shorts. Given that I am a paying subscriber, I’m a little frustrated that I still can’t access so much of their content and there’s little clarity on why. Do you have any insight on what’s going on there?
@absolutebl knows way more than I do about this.
But it's about owning the rights to showing media in different places and some are only sold to certain companies for certain areas for a variety of reasons, depending on sponsorship, money... stuff I don't know about.
It boils down to... money and copyright law, basically. I think?
The reason for the lack of clarity is that... that's just how it works. Same with Netflix and Hulu and Disney+. All of them have different offerings depending on your region, you just don't hear about them as much because people don't always talk about it.
That's why you get all those advertisements for VPN, to get around that kind of locking. Doesn't always work, but often does. Gaga is definitely VPN-able, even with a cheap free one, same with IQIYI.
But anyway, that's my basic knowledge of the concept.

I pay for Spotify premium. I decided to listen to Hilary Duff's Metamorphosis album and half the songs are region locked. Wtf. SO now I'm listening to it on YouTube with adblockers. Fuck you, Spotify and YouTube 🖕

So, I've been listening to the Discworld audiobooks as they come out, and I was somewhat mystified a month ago to find they didn't release Night Watch on May 25th, which is a very important date in that book, alongside the rest of the Watch books.
I glanced at the Audible page for Sir Terry Pratchett to see if they were releasing the rest of Discworld, and they are (so those are now on my Audible wishlist), but still no Night Watch.
So I did a quick google and it appears that Night Watch, specifically, isn't available. No reason given other than just "not available in your area/region."

There's been some talk about the Norwegian Regions lately, and I decided to do some tweaking of their designs and make an informative map!✨ Might also do an introduction post later...

A Japanese splatoon fan was interviewing other splat players asking them if nintendo failed making Fryes design. Most of the other responses were similar to these btw 😐😐😐

me: i love this game that will reward me with Creature, and will reward me at any pace just as long as i do get up and walk around the neighborhood at some point, which is good for my poor, chronically depressed ass in this remote, rural location with nowhere to actually go as a destination. motivating myself to aimlessly wander anyway is easier when i know that if i do so, i will not only get fresh air and endorphins flowing, but a visible, tangible reward of Creature dangled like a carrot in front of me, and i will have earned it, because i motivated myself to physically move, and while there are microtransactions for various other things in the game, there is nothing that will actually let you buy your way into acquiring Creature without moving, and so i move
niantic: starts putting more and more Creature behind strict time windows and pay walls and events you can only truly be part of if you can afford a weekend trip to fucking Las Vegas on short notice
