The first season of the TV series is a banger, but the subsequent seasons suffer from a decline in quality. Also, the series finale is just so disappointing compared to the ending of Gaiman's novel.
I use Stremio + Torrentio and the torrents that are cached show up but can't play anything at the moment.
I am also encountering this; "Playback error, please try again" is the error message that Stremio presents.
Philip K. Dick's Electric Dreams (joint UK and US production, premiered first on Channel 4)
great ones that never took off in the states
This TV series fits this description to a T because I reckon that most people, when thinking of a sci-fi TV anthology series, would bring to mind Black Mirror.
I watched Electric Dreams shortly after finishing the latest season of Black Mirror; I found the former more enjoyable and poignant than the latter.
I want an android style permissions menu
Same. In addition to the prompt-based permissions that @Kusimulkku@lemm.ee brings up, I'd like to see more granular control of permissions. For example, a flatpak app's access to webcams, controllers, etc. are all controlled through just one permission: --device=all (aka "Device Access" in KDE's Flatpak Permission Settings).
Recently, I watched...
Batman Returns (1992): The scene of the cats congregating around Selina Kyle after Shreck threw her out of the office window (and before she's reborn as Catwoman) is so iconic. I remember seeing that scene on television when I was a child. Danny DeVito's performance as The Penguin is also mega.
Blade Runner (1982): My eyes got heavy while watching it because all of the scenes are visually dark, which is certainly intentional. The world-building is amazing.
12 Monkeys (1995): It was interesting to watch this movie after having seen the TV series when it originally aired. The TV series is my second favorite sci-fi show, but I thought the movie was fine.
Tenet hurt my soul
As someone who watched Primer and Tenet back-to-back (both first-time viewings), I am amazed that a film produced on an astronomically higher budget than the other could be twice as confusing, twice as long (!), and so much more exhausting because of the story's reliance on world-ending stakes.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Hades, and Portal
2FAS which seems recommended for data privacy.
By whom?
There is a discussion in the Privacy Guides forum on 2FAS that you might want to read.
Also, you don't specify which platform you're using. As @I_Am_Jacks_____@lemmings.world mentioned, Aegis for Android is great. For iOS, the pull request to include ente Auth in the Privacy Guides recommendation page for authenticator apps is already merged. It will reflect on the live website once the Privacy Guides team decides to release v3.17 of the site.
exposition dumps
The most egregious example that I encountered recently was in Annihilation. What specifically annoyed me was the scene in which a member of the Shimmer team who rows in the same boat as Natalie Portman's character tells her something to the effect of, "We're all damaged goods."
She then proceeds to provide Portman's character a straight up list of the internal struggles that each of the team members face.
