+The general rule of thumb in Furscape is that if something exists somewhere in a laboratory today, in real life, then it's probably widely available in Furscape's setting. However, some technologies are highly restricted for political reasons. Many of our colony worlds are basically frontier settings where recoms are trying to carve a civilization out of the wilderness, and advanced technology is not always readily available.
 We also have a brief list of [[Verboten Tech]] -- things that either can't work or are heavily restricted in our setting.
