How does it work with Youtube? I've never looked into that.
My theory is, is that they'll just block regions using certain DNS ranges/addresses. All they need to do is get another range and update it with something else and it'll last a while longer. If it works how I think it will, it'd be largely invisible to us anyway.
This is wit Getflix, BTW.
I don't think it works with Youtube. Getflix that is.
Don't really know the tech behind it.
That's what I thought too, but never investigated. But if youtubes geolocks are solid, I'd think netflix would be able to too if they put enough effort behind it.

Wait which stuff on Youtube is geoblocked? I remember using some Chrome extension ages ago to get around geoblocked clips in the past (mainly Comedy Central stuff)
No 70mm here but I will get to see it at least next week.

That sucks, I knew it was only at George St in Sydney but I figured it would be showing in other places around the country. I hope the projectionist knows what they are doing!

I think there's stuff from various US networks. The oddest thing I ever saw was Funimation, the US anime distributor, geolocks their trailers.
Unless they get serious with account, credit card based restrictions, it will be a failure, but as long as it keeps the content providers happy who cares
Also, just offer (I am not naïve enough to think it's this easy) me a $30/month all region you can eat subscription and I will pay it, and I am sure many others would too.
As I already tunnel all my traffic through a VPN I at times get situations where I have to use hola to unblock Australian content haha

lol yeah I remember that happening to me with a website at one point and had a good laugh once I realised why I couldn't get in
I eat Indian once a week now. Adam showed me the light.

He wanted to take me to an indian place but I'm far too stubborn. I did eat a fair bit of his naan at the taste of tassie though.
Oh that's right, I said I'd eat indian with him if he would drink alcohol. He didn't so I didn't.

Two great tastes that taste great together. You deserve each other.

will gently cradle you as time slowly ticks away.
Indian food is basically British food at this point so I'm incredibly surprised when I meet someone who hasn't tried it or doesn't like it.

Just eat butter chicken. It's like a nice intro to Indian, very safe.
Then eat beef vindaloo. And nothing else. Ever again. There is no need.
Question for Melbourne people: I need to get from the airport to Moonee Ponds. Better off taking a skybus into the city and making my way from there, or taking the 478 bus? I'll have a suitcase and a toddler to drag along. I need to get to Treasury Gardens from Moonee Ponds later as well.

Aw thanks mr tone
Wait why are you in japan

Lucian ate a bit of my butter chicken on nye, said the sauce didn't do anything for her. It was pretty bland even by butter chicken standards tho, so one day I hope to somehow con her into trying some at one of the better restaurants in hobes.

Speaking of butter chicken, yet to find a decent place in Melb that does real butter chicken. Only one came close was Indian Tukka on Victoria Parade.
Moonee Ponds is like 10-15 minutes from the airport, cab/uber will be faster.
Skybus + local train/tram/bus would take you an hour.

Is "hobes" a thing? Maybe I should start calling Adelaide "ades".
Even if it does end up getting blocked, I figure I've gotten a good 5 years out of my US Netflix account and it was nice while it lasted.

You wouldn't even eat the fudge I bought you coz it had alcohol in it. GOOD LUCK
I don't know that that's the best idea...

I never had the time to get Indian food in Japan. But the best Indian food I've ever had was from an Indian/Nepalese restaurant in Ansan, Korea.
Fun story: I was on TV in Korea because one of their morning TV shows was doing a special in the south-east Asian ghetto part of my city where the restaurant was. A camera crew was in the restaurant getting B-roll footage when my friend and I walked in. They then asked us if they could interview us and film us while eating. It was fun hearing my students say "Stephen teacher, I saw you on TV!"
I wonder if they put that on YouTube, back in 2010 the TV channel had their own nightmare of a streaming service. Trying to find it was painful.
then we can be cool-aids!
This guy gets it!

I too am mindblown. Should really get around to watching 1 again one day. Last time I saw it was at yours and I'm pretty sure you fast forwarded through a lot of it lol.
Edit: Also you should send me Shaun's number so I can thank him for the beers.

I'm up for Cloverfield 2 if it's true. I really loved the first one.
He did that thing he does where he gets drunk and starts throwing drinks around?
That's the great thing about Cloverfield, you barely got to look at the bad creature design.

Idk how drunk he was but I gave him a 20 to get me a beer and he came back with beer and gave back my 20. Then got me another one after.
He is living large off the largesse of the federal government. Text sent.

Oh it's not Cloverfield 2 it's a different movie repackaged to be in the same universe. Woman wakes up in a basement and is being held down there by John Goodman who says the world has ended or something. JJ confirmed it's in the same universe today. It's directed by the Portal short movie dude.
EDIT: Trailer. I'm in!
Hey, if the kids at the 2007 cancer council 24 hour run can do it, so can we.

Going to Melbourne now, should be fun.
I am pumped, love that it's not a direct sequel and another story in the same (presumably) universe.

If you're eating lamb anything, you're doing it wrong.
Should be beef, chicken, or goat. Lamb is too lean and flat tasting to bring enough fight to a balanced spice mix.
Butter chicken is a great intro once it's not from a jar (too sweet, too much tomato).
A good beef korma is a nice Thai/Indian style fusion.
When you're ready for it, goat vindaloo is GOAT curry. Enough gamey punch to balance the flavour. Just need one that doesn't sacrifice depth simply for rocket fuel heat.
