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.

Guess what, everything has poo and bacteria all over it.

Your keyboard or phone are far more disgusting than any shoe. You’ll live sunshine.

I love this 'why try; give up' attitude. Getting out of bed must be hard if you're just going to be back there later.

Welcome to Lemmy

Its more, theres no harm in wearing your shoes inside. It’s like saying we should all wear gloves inside to not touch germs, just kinda silly y’know. Humans evolved barefoot, a bit of dirt on the floor isnt the be all and end all of existence.

Nobody said it was lol.

The ley is the amount. If you’re actively tracking more shit into and all around your house you’re going to have more than someone who doesn’t.

[–] Nudding@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Guess what, my floor is cleaner than yours.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Are you eating off it? Or are you just very concerned about keeping your socks clean?

[–] Nudding@lemmy.world -2 points 10 months ago

Well I change my socks every day regardless, I guess I just think it's gross to bring the street into your space.

[–] Deceptichum@kbin.social -4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Guess what, it makes no difference.

[–] Nudding@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

I'd rather less shit particles, thanks.

[–] Nudding@lemmy.world -3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Your phone and your keyboard maybe lol.

[–] Deceptichum@kbin.social -1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Everyone’s

Shit mines probably cleaner because I change keyboards more often than the average user.

[–] Nudding@lemmy.world -3 points 10 months ago

Been disinfecting my phones and keyboards long before 2008 lol.
