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.

Even Michael Jackson, himself, grew to hate being that famous and often lamented it in interviews before he stopped giving them, and in the few he did give before his death.
fame becomes a curse to all
edit: I remember when he died... I was walking through Washington Square Park in NYC, and I got an alert on my phone. I was so stunned, that I sat own on the nearest bench and just stared at my phone. I noticed that everyone around me also got an alert, and they all just froze... Everyone around me just froze... The whole city just STOPPED IN PLACE. it freaked me out. Then the internet went down. I tried to call a friend, but I couldn't. I couldn't send a text or load a webpage... nothing worked for, like, half an hour. shit was fucked.
The only other time I remember something like that was 9/11
I was the in ER outside Philadelphia and there were sheets between the beds. The TV was up above where we could all see it. About three beds over I heard “he bleached himself to death!”
How much of that bleaching was medical vs choice?
I graduated highschool the day Micheal Jackson died
You don't need to add "edit". No one will ever know.
There's an edit icon on that post...
And pointing out edits is good internet etiquette. Since edits don't change replies, someone could edit their comment and make all the replies seem unrelated etc.
Do you really have nothing better to do than post pedantic, asshole replies like this?
Did you know edit is tide backwards?
tide comes in, edit goes out.
You can't explain that.
Magnets man how do they work?
