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 keep tabs open so I can refer back to them when working on stuff or when I am planning things.
Right now I'm in the middle of house repairs on a former slumlord property. Will be installing 7.2KW of solar panels in a system that can island without causing issues. Need to rip and replace the back porch because the roof was rotten already and the floor is not much better. Trying to run and build a YouTube channel in the SCUBA diving niche. Planning for a dive trip to Cozumel in April so I can get more footage for said channel. And trying to start a non-profit that will support SCUBA training for teens and young adults who survived childhood abuse. While also running a website for the YouTube channel and the non-profit. All while dealing with life, family, a dog, and two vehicles. I do EVERYTHING with my own hands because I don't have cash to pay others to do it for me.
When I am preparing to make a purchase I also tend to have even more tabs open as I compare prices and costs for shipping among other things. The replacement materials for our roof was about 5K total for just under 3000sq ft of roof and I had to install venting that previously didn't exist. Just made the next to last purchase for solar and have 6500 invested and about 1000 left to go for the racking and a few miscellaneous things.
It takes a lot to remember everything so keeping tabs open is a huge stress reliever. Right now my desktop has about 80 tabs open and my tablet has 230.
