DO I LOOK LIKE I KNOW WHAT A HEISENBERG COMPENSATOR IS?

They can legally seize them with a warrant. But that usually only happens if the target might attempt to destroy evidence or otherwise not cooperate.

They can also legally compel the target during execution of said warrant to provide their biometrics (but not their passcode) to unlock the devices.

There was a post the other day about how Reddit never took anything seriously and how the top comments were always predictable jokes that stopped being funny years ago.

It was nice to have places like Daystrom, Ask Science, etc. that were curated for serious discussion.

That's okay. It's good to live in a world where very different people enjoy very different things. I'm glad we can all be part of a social federation and still get along despite our infinite combinations of infinite diversity.

Unfortunately, outside of the meme zone (i.e. [email protected]) there isn't a whole lot of engagement anymore. Once the blackout was over, the reddit communities opened back up.

I mean, look at r/DaystromInstitute versus [email protected] – it's not pretty.

In an interview during the 90's, William Shatner told of a story of him being recognized in mid-perfomance by a sword dancer in a small Iranian village. The man stopped dead in his tracks and looked straight at him uttering with utter amazement; "Captain Kirk?!?" That should give us perspective as to how deep and far Star Trek reached people for the last 51 years.
