  • And what is a private key? How exactly do you “keep” it across multiple devices? It’s all still black magic to me.

  • It reminds me a little of Game of Thrones, where all the major players, the royals etc all have spy networks. This is a world where very poor peasants and servants are everywhere and many of them, including children, end up in the employ of this person or that person, watching who is coming and going and reporting back, such that one’s movements and meetings are trackable to a minute degree. The better your spy network, the more power you have.

    Of course Varys, spymaster to the crown, is famed for the effectiveness of his network, which spans the continent and even across the sea to other major cities.

    He himself is a master of disguise. This was left out of the show entirely but he frequently appears by surprise, whipping off the guise of an old woman and later leaving the scene dressed as a priest, etc. He grew up with actors and uses makeup and costume changes to hide his tracks. He can change his voice and gait at will and routinely shocks people by his ability to blend in and appear or disappear at will. He knows how to leave a place by a different entrance than he came in, and knows all the secrets passageways of the castle.

    Basically, in a world with no privacy, the world’s foremost surveillance master is a model for all of us in these times. If you want to move freely in public but do so without a trace, be prepared to pull your hood up and when you leave a restaurant, take off the hoodie you were wearing when you went in. Practice different postures to throw off gait tracking.

    You don’t have to like it, but this is the world we live in.

  • Apology accepted.

  • what was the worst enemy of feudalism?

    Jump

  • Yes you can see this culturally in the old stereotypes about “old money” versus “new money.”

    Rich family with a hereditarily passed down fortune, lands, and control = old money = feudalism.

    Entrepreneur who came from nothing but tok advantage of emerging economies to become wealthy overnight = new money = capitalism.

    Old money hates new money because capitalism dethroned feudalism.

  • Of all the things you might miss by moving to a rural area, this should be the least of your worries. There are places to take a shit out there. Have you ever heard of a septic tank?

  • YSK about Psyllium husk

    Jump

  • I take these daily and while I always have good shits, the pills didn’t turn me into some kind of shit machine. Results may vary I guess.

  • YSK about Psyllium husk

    Jump

  • Well that’s a pain in the ass, isn’t it?

    I believe it though. Researchers out there have shown that even things like time of day can make a HUGE difference in the measurable results of different remedies and medicines. It’s inconvenient as shit for those of us who would like to wake up, chug a handful of pills, and get on with our day.
