Editing Material culture and technology (section)

== Upper Levels and Types of Technology Available ==
*Computer and information technology is uncommon and not favored.  You won't see much in the way of monitors or displays, databases of any kinds, keyboards, etc.  There are people specially trained to be savants in terms of calculation and feats of memory.  Many powerful people have an assistant who can recall the contents of an entire library in impressive detail, and handle massive amounts of mathematical calculations in seconds.
*Genetic Engineering and vat-grown life forms exist.
*Power supplies of effectively infinite duration are possible, although they do have a maximum sustained output.
*Faster than light travel and teleportation exist, but cannot reliably be replicated at the current time.
*The Lizardmen had psionic technology with telepathic interfaces, although it has never been (and may not be able to be) adopted by humans.
*Some of the lesser precursor technology can be produced by powerful mages with fabrication labs, but not on a massive scale.  Some of the Thracian levels of technology can be produced in larger quantities, but still nothing like a modern factory output.
*Wireless communication exists, but is not available to the common person.
*Technology is generally integrated and non-disposable.  If something does not have a perpetual power supply, you probably have to physically take it to a recharging station.  It own't have removable batteries.
*Plastic bags and so forth are unavailable.  Textiles in generally are not synthetically produced.
