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.

You have 180 days visa free to be in the schengen area(most of EU).
It may be better to apply for your Visa in host country rather than through a US consulate. It's often much faster, and there's no third party which imo is safer.
It's a one-way trip for your pets. At least last i looked into it the US doesn't allow you to import house pets. So changing your mind will mean losing your pet. Speaking of bringing pets, that process is insane.
You WILL get homesick no matter how awful you feel about the US, it will take at least a year to go away.
The anxieties you bring with you from living in the US will take years to resolve.
You'll need to get good at saying where you come from by referencing either New York City or LA.
FOR DIVERS:
Divers license discerns between automatic and manual transmission, trailer weights, and motorcycle displacement. There's probably not a direct exchange so you'll need to research for your discussing country. Your US license may be valid for a limited period after establishing residence.
use your turn signals at roundabouts. Yes, if you're exiting left, signal left, if you're exiting right, signal right. Always signal right when you exit. (Opposite for left hand driving) Optional if you're diving a BMW.
Priority roads are a thing and right of may be different.
Right-turn on red may not be legal.
I think depth is also an important factor. And remember, don't drink and dive!
I brought 3 cats to the USA from Thailand, with little problem. There was a bunch of tests and paperwork, but compared to human visa and such, it was easy. Idk where you got the idea that it's not legal to bring pets...?
Tell me more about the roundabouts and exiting. Are there left exits from a roundabout? Don't they all circulate anticlockwise (when viewed from above)?
There's a new roundabout in my town and nobody knows how to signal. I see people enter with left signal flashing and then they'll take the 3rd exit (out of 4 total). I've always entered without a signal, then exit right with a signal.
Also, I've seen many people go around backwards. That's a fun surprise.
Pretty sure that's how you're supposed to signal. In most places it's not a legal requirement but it is recommended and taught by most driving instructors.
Although I do assume they switch to their right signal before taking their exit. If they don't, then yeah that's wrong.
