But do you have any information? I've long concluded you do not.

I think you're either a propagandist or a tool of propagandists. You have a way to talk to me, if you wish, but that's the ONLY way you can talk to me. I won't know who you are when (if) you connect, you can pretend to be anybody you wish. I want(ed) to work on the Tox Core protocol, but I think it's hopeless. Fixing it would break compatibility. There's quite a few fundamental flaws in implementation. I wanted to fix it at one point, but it's fundamentally flawed in the design. The design can't be repaired in my opinion, it's too complex and too broken, but the basic ideas of it were brilliant. I'm incorporating the (admittedly) amazing concepts. Many excellent ideas, just the implementation of it is awful.
The design of the protocol for communication is point to point end to end secure. No need for any servers, however they depend on distributed hash tables, the data transfers are not reliable (for no reason), the program spins (for no reason). It's a super smart concept designed by a bunch of novices in software. My trouble has always been doing NAT traversal, it's poorly explained but I cracked it, it's FAR simpler than I imagined (of course!) all the rest of it can be reduced to centralized servers for connection, and those servers can connect to one another - though probably a DHT - but tox is entirely dependent on DHT, which makes it slow to connect. I think they designed this around the original idea of Skype.
So anyhow, if you connect to me through TOX, this is what I will gravitate toward. It's an awesome concept in many ways, and just a terrible implementation.
richwicks saysI don't believe you're a real person. I believe either you're either a propagandist or you're a construct created by propaganda.
I'm very real. Which you can verify for only $400. $200 actually, if you decide to cut it off within 1/2h.

Oh noes: Peskov has confirmed that the diplomat does indeed exist, has indeed defected and is now considered the enemy of the people. But there is still hope: I looked up Peskov's LinkedIn page - and it doesn't exist! Meaning that "Peskov" person is also a figment of the Western propaganda!

Well, show links. You repeat bullshit a lot or just make shit up. Who believes anything you say?

Have you already found links/quotes to support your claim that Bana al-Abed couldn't write in Arabic? Not meaning to derail your conversation with RWSGFY, just checking.

I need to compile a list of heroic people who have been in combat.
First Lt. Ehren Watada refused to deploy to Iraq after he had been sent to Afghanistan, because he properly recognize that the Iraq War was unjustified and based on a lie. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ehren_Watada
George W. Bush recognized this as well vvvvv
