I use PurpleTV and it's been great. It's a Twitch fork modified to block ads, reduce bloat, and include customisation for chat, player and other components.

Don't know if we can share links here but the APK can be easily found online, still being updated semi-regularly. I won't come back to the official app as long as I'm able. :)

I just said goodbye to it today. I realised there's a bigger, unselfish choice to be made in the scheme of it all

We're on S6E12 right now, will I still love House MD as much as I do now by the end of the show?

Agreed. "Mistakes were made - but let's blame the dumb dad who had his moron 15-year-old progeny bump the autopilot into total submission." smh

The last time I remember children being invited to a high-intensity workplace ended up with them fatally crashing an airplane with 75 people on board.

This almost took an analog horror twist. Manga horror?

Oh god, TVTropes is like fucking crack cocaine for my brain, I'm like a wet sponge after those endless rabbitholes. I have had the most difficult time explaining to others what it's about, but I'm quite content for it to be my own little getaway.

I discovered them through "Savin' Me" and I unironically love that song (and its music video) to bits. Even if some of the lyrics are a bit flimsy and dramatic, the song overall is so emotionally powerful. Same goes for "Hero" (packaged with the first Spidey movie). Strip away some of the ear candy in the Kroeger production and they both still hold up as beautiful songs.

Tacking on my unsolicited two cents - I gave Origins a very, very fair go (added an easy 30 hours to my playtime and even completed some challenge paths for my sense of accomplishment), and while it does try to emulate the success of its prequels, ultimately it falls short of its predecessor.

Arkham City is a perfect balance of all the elements introduced during the series; it doesn't feel incomplete (although Asylum works great as an entry point) yet it's not an overbloated mess like Knight. Its story also feels more emotionally involved and the plethora of characters is incorporated well.

Please don't downvote this [too much] but...

I'm not seeing ExpressVPN get mentioned here or elsewhere anymore except for the odd YouTube ad (perhaps this is already a tell-tale sign).

Their website states that they run it off RAM and they don't keep logs.

Is there something wrong with it / did something happen to it that I'm not aware of? (I've been a customer of theirs for some time now)

My aim with using VPN is to maintain data privacy across my Windows, iOS and Android devices, and be able to access geofenced media (e.g. a different country's Netflix library), with minimal to no access issues during browsing or streaming. What's the go-to these days?
