No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

I'd rather we were each and all free to have spaceships.
Much more ecologically savvy than petroleum powered cars and all the road infrastructure they require.
Spaceships for everybody.
Spaceships that are zero-point energy powered, capable of zero-inertia propulsion, sustaining human life indefinitely, printing another of itself instantly, and safe enough for a 2 year old to fly home. I hear these exist, and have for decades before we saw the TR-3B (in 2014 or earlier), and at least as early as a decade after the foo-fighters and the bell ("die glocke") during WW2.
Or even just the aeros of the mid 1800s, like Charles Dellschau drew from what he saw at the Sonora Aero Club in 1850... that'd be better, for a start, even if they've not been made spaceworthy yet, at least they'd be clean powered, energy efficient, and spare our landscape being cut up by roads (freeing up even more acres for each our farm holdings individual and communal), freeing us to travel where there's far more room (in the sky), no traffic, and cant crash by driver error or strike wildlife, the em-inertial field just slipstreaming us past anything, and able to stop instantly, with the internal inertial reference frame separated.
Lets wind back this over 175 year lost progress for the common people.
It'd even be a nice start if more people merely started looking into this, beyond their circular-reasoned unwittingly conditioned-presumption that it's not possible or true.
