Interesting feature, surely possible. I have seen that on "Threema". Of course, secured by two layers of passwords/-phrases and strict connection procedure.

Well, as for many topics, also "privacy" in detail seems to be very different to many people. Personally I like the "auto-expire" feature in every messager app. But I also know people, who get angry about deleted chats. Because they forgot, what's been said in the past or they want to look up stuff months ago, or ... I else don't know.
Hmm ... are you talking about the original Signal app or the Molly app? Because I don't really understand your news here.
For me, as far as I am aware, Signal has always been synchronising the chat history. The only condition being, that you have connected your device before in the past, which I think is a good privacy feature. (Although, I haven't checked, how far back it goes. Never needed that.) - You don't want any random new device read all our history, or do you?
My ELI5 answer: The periodic table is basically "finished", there are no new additions. Meaning, the structure is is set and almost all elments found, including some (theoretical) higher-number elements that still have to be securely "discovered". This final discovery nowadays happens only in specialised labs from time to time, because the higher-number elements are extremly unstable, only created artifically and existing for a few nanoseconds or femtoseconds. Some more details you can find on Wikipedia here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actinide
Additionally, some people discuss different models/structures for organising the elements in general. But that is a different topic.
Definitely a classic is "Solaris" (1972 film) by Andrei Tarkovsky. It has a mix of sci-fi and drama, but I can't tell more without spoiling it. It definitely makes you think ... Also other Tarkovsky films have been praised, like "Stalker" that you mentioned. So maybe check out his filmography?
Edit: Something completely different is "The Mystery of the Third Planet" (1981) by Roman Kachanov. It is an animated sci-fi film for children, but also fun to watch as an adult because of the absurd storyline and humour.
Other films I have in mind, too, but don't remember their exact titles now. Will edit this post, if I recall ... Edit: You might want to have a look at the Wikipedia list differentiating by age and/or genre: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinema_of_the_Soviet_Union
Come to Europe one day! We have a selection of the finest vending machines in most gas stations toilets for - behold - not only condoms, but also tampons, little toys for her or him, etc. All for just a few bucks. And not sketchy at all.
