A book or a movie?
^^^
Also the political climate of said episodes.
People talking to Siri looks like someone talking into a communicator. So tempted to get them to answer to the word 'Computer'.
It'd be cool to get a few people to dress up like Star Trek characters and then just interact with people as if they had stumbled upon a planet similar to 21st century Earth.

Apple has something now which can be worn on the wrist. I think they might call them a smart watch.

I answered this once already, but my reply apparently was vaporized. I saw a cartoon of Dick Tracy in an article years ago where he was talking into a video watch.

Vaporized? How so?
No clue. All I know is that I responded to your question , but when I came back to this thread some time later, my reply was no longer here, so I had to write another one.
Maybe it was a forum glitch. It's rare but it happens.
This isn't something seen, but a song I heard. When Voyager was on the air (first run), I belonged to another message board. Someone on that board said that the song To the Moon and Back by Savage Garden sounded like it could be a theme song for B'Elanna Torres.
Some of the lines are:
Mama never loved her much
Daddy never keeps in touch
This sounds like her family situation. Not saying her mother didn't love her, but their relationship was strained.
And also:
All her friends, they've been trialed for treason.
Her Maquis friends back in the AQ, were either dead or convicted of treason.

Trialed? You mean tried, don't you?
Was that really necessary? How does that further the conversation?
You don't have to respond to every single little thing.
I was wondering if it wasn't intentional. It sometimes is. People make neologisms sometimes to make a point.
Remember when I said you don't need to respond to every single little thing?
This is one of those things.
So in other words, do as you say, not as you do?
What are you talking about?
I don't post one word or one sentence messages 200 times a day. I don't comment on everything said everywhere. In general I leave the forum alone and rarely intervene.
But when I do, it's for a reason. And if there's a problem with that, you're more than free to address it in a PM.
Otherwise, move on.
When I brought the video (the kind that had lyrics only) up on Youtube, it was spelled out "trialed". Perhaps the person who made that particular video got it wrong. I would think it would be "tried" myself.
Edit: I went back and brought up a different lyrics only video and it was was "tried" instead of "trialed".

One of my best friends, named John, looks like Brent Spiner. But that's not what our affiliation's based off of. I saw him around, in High School and we'd say a few words, but nothing about STAR TREK, certainly, or on any kind of friendship level. Then, one day, I'm sneaking out of class and go to take a piss in a near-forgotten lavatory towards a remote end of the building. Sure enough, John's the only one in there, with this long window open facing the teacher's parkinglot. He's wetting gobs and gobs of toilet paper and winging them at their cars. Any and all he could reach. I just started roaring - I couldn't help myself! Though I didn't participate, this incident sparked a lifelong friendship. He did, however, end up being revealed as the culprit, though I forget how ... and was made to pay for ALL those cars to get professionally washed. Wow! I haven't thought about that in a long time. The good years ...
That's severe, I'd have just made him wash them himself...
Yeah, it was Catholic School, so ... that was probably why.
