It seems very hard to find the whole video for the breakdancing

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 41 points 1 month ago (4 children)

NBC blocked anyone I the states from watching it without Peacock, and now they're taking the replays off Peacock because Fuck you that's why.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 15 points 1 month ago

Yeah it's pretty absurd. What, are you going to sell a boxed set later? Fucking clowns.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They took down replays? Fucking insane.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I'm guessing it has something to do with their contract with the JOC.

VPN anywhere where it's legally required to be public, like the UK.

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Torrenting it is then.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

same in UK. This is why people use Tiktok

A lot taken down due to copyright claims (shouldn't an international competition about peace be free to distribute?) so s lot of people are just recording their TV with their phones.

You have to understand the absolutely massive amount of money being shoveled at the Olympics committee by the network that gains the right to show these performances. And the mountains of cash they in turn get in advertising revenue. The Olympics is one of the most capitalist events on the planet.

Unfortunately Reddit is still one of the best and easiest ways to find stuff like this - here is the full performance

[–] dditty@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I just combed through that thread and could not find a working link to a vid of Raygun's performance

[–] ElegantBiscuit@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

The video is the post itself, not in the comments

Idk what to tell you then, cause it’s still up for me. Don’t know if it’s geo blocked, but I’m in the US where it would be most likely to be blocked by NBC

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Probably cached for you. I seem to remember things like that from when I was on reddit-- if you'd visited a page before it got removed your browser still displayed it. If you open it from a new browser or incognito wi now it'll prob display as removed.

edit: nm, vid still appears to be up on old reddit

Post shows as removed here in Germany

[–] thesystemisdown@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (4 children)

It's on Peacock, if you subscribe.

[–] Kaput@lemmy.world 36 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Thanks but I don't even know what peacock is. And an not really interested in more subscriptions.

[–] thesystemisdown@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

Fair enough, my apologies. I did that insular thing where I assumed you were in the U. S. My bad.

[–] Jtee@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I'm going to comment here in case someone posts a link for us to watch lol

[–] tyler@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago

Just vpn to Canada to watch all the replays on cbc.

[–] LiveLM@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Hope someone has a rip laying around.
Seems like my local TV broadcast all sports except break-dancing for some reason...

[–] Jtee@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I found a few posted by CBC (on YouTube) but can't find the bit from this meme
