There are plenty of good suggestions already, but one thing I do very often to get text from my computer to my phone is just displaying the text as a QR code and scanning that. You can make it work the other way around if you have a webcam, but that's a bit more work.

KeePass can do TOTP, it's better to have a separate database for those for obvious reasons, though.

Seeing your nickname for the first time some years ago I thought it'd be funny if it's a reference to Cassiopeia A, as it's a remnant of a supernova that contains iron oxide.

If you want a serious answer, let's start with the fact that humans are inherently xenophobic. Hundreds of thousands of years ago humans who didn't defend themselves from other tribes that looked a bit different from them got plundered and died of starvation. Xenophobia got nurtured in that manner for tens of thousands of years.

In the modern age there is little to no reason to hate people who's ears are tilted in a slightly different way than your's, but the mechanism is still deeply ingrained in your brain and wants to be useful. So it starts working the other way. We find those who we don't like and start finding coincidental traits in their appearance that are common between them. Now instead of disliking people by views we start disliking anyone who has these traits, then the confirmation bias kicks in.

There are stupid and evil people, but these adjectives discribe what's going on inside their skull, not outside. Works the other way, too. However beautiful the person looks like, they may very well have views of the biggest piece of shit you ever met.

As terrible as Putin may be, I don't think going into physiognomy is a good thing to do. People are just born with their faces. Please don't reinforce the belief that the shape of your face somehow defines who you are.

まぁ、この文字はだいぶ中国語の文字だろう？姿は中国語、読み方は日本語。どんな言語はこれ？謎だ。

でしょう？日本語を見ると、すぐに頭の中で意味が思い浮かぶ。これはあの「字幕」と言うことかもしれない。

Poor man's low blood pressure simulator.

All the pictures you linked are very much related to software development, your post targets economics exclusively, it has absolutely nothing to do with cryptocurrencies as a technology.

There is no way to tell a story about a country without talking politics. The only thing that differentiates one country from another is how they do things. These "ways of doing things" are called policies. Deciding on which policies are good and which are bad is known as politics, fairly straightforward. If you are not talking about politics, you may as well not talk about the countries in your story.

As for your question, of course you can write a story in a way where there is an abstract faceless "higher-up" figure, we've seen these, but the moment you try to create an actual character to represent the government, it will unavoidably get political when you see that character interacting with others in the story.

They literally built a country, love, how the hell did you miss the politics?

I usually don't go out of my way to explain privacy to people, but I have to explain to almost every new acquaintance that I don't have to have a particular reason to refuse being in photos. One of the most egregious cases went in the line of "I hung out with that kind of famous guy once and he asked me not to post pictures of him, I can understand that, but why would you, a nobody, refuse being in pictures!?"

Saddest part is that even people who agree to not take pictures of you without further explanaion will usually throw quips at you every time there is a camera nearby.
