Well if only those samsung & ios users that never get my messages until I see them and tell them to open their app had phones that didn't interfere with it running in the background / push notifications it would be working out for me even better, but that's not an issue with the protocol or client but with OS's being hostile to xmpp.
Hmm, I see. But isn't there an obvious solution to this? One of you just run two different clients side-by-side?
I use xmpp all the time. Biggest hurdle for certain fam/friends using xmpp has been certain android builds (samsung) and ios interfering with timely notifications. User knowlege is not a problem as I can recommend the apps that are compatible encryption protocols with mine.
Molly is just Signal with a different name and on more depositories
Signal does the same
Look I'm not saying you're wrong in your assessment of global affairs, but believe me when I say that there is more to life than that. I'd advise you to spend some time each day looking at the world at a different scale than that, for example the life of insects, or the world of classical music or mathematics. Perhaps pick up an interest from your childhood. We're not dead yet! It may also be advisable to see a doctor and tell them about your wanting to spend all your time in bed and your panic attacks while smoking. Hope you feel better.
iirc there was barely any opium production in Afghanistan pre-2001 under Taliban rule. It was in the following 20 years that the industry boomed and a lot of those government officials you refer to and their relatives got extremely rich from that, including President Karzai's own little brother. The US put those people in power and propped them up for over 2 decades. It's pretty clear the US decision-makers tried to eradicate poppy just as little as they tried to create peace in the region (not at all).
Speaking to Sky News Australia, Assange's brother Shipton said the news showed the US was seeking to end it's "extremely controversial" prosecution.
"This indication from the Ambassador Caroline Kennedy shows that the US administration is looking for an off-ramp," Mr Shipton said.
"They've been pursuing Julian for the past 13 years for publishing evidence of corruption, for publishing evidence of war crimes and they're now deciding that there is a solution available.
"This is a sign that they don't want this playing out in American courts, particularly during an election cycle, so the US administration is really looking for an off-ramp here for what is an extremely, extremely controversial press freedom prosecution."
Asked what the outcome of a potential deal could be, Mr Shipton suggested he would expect Assange to be freed completely upon his return to Australia, saying he had already "paid" a significant price for his actions.
"Julian has been in prison for four year, he been detained one way or another for 13 years," he said.
"This is the price that he has paid, this is the price that his family has paid as well."
