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.

I enjoy listening to Katty Kay and the Mooch. However, I think we hit peak Mooch just before election day.

I am still favour of using the Mooch system for measuring the length of appointments, just for the sake of nostalgia. We need to standardize it, though. Is it 11 days or 10?

It’s a metric scale—just use centimoochies.

We don't use metric here - it's three teamoochies to a tablemooch and then the perfectly rational 16 tablemoochies to the cuppamooch.

Millimooch has such a nice ring to it

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

A decimooch is just longer than a day.

Fortunately, the charging one has been solved now that we've all standardized on mini-USB. Or is it micro-USB? Shit.

We're going to need a conversion chart of international units, 5 moochies = 1 truss, etc.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

I'll accept this

Not going to lie, but have you seen Trump. Dude looks like he's going to killover at any moment. Trump is more likely to be the first person to leave the administration.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

I wouldn't mind the trump presidency ending in a few moochies.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago

Is this a follow-up to my observation about appointments potentially terminating well before Trump is even sworn in?

I think we landed on using negative mooches.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

We abandon it because I'm tired of that Scaramucci guy being in the media as an expert on Trump. I don't even watch TV but I've seen so many articles about Trump and when I click them it turns out to be something Scaramucci said on cable news the night before. Why the fuck would I want to hear from that guy?

Micromoochies, Nanomoochies, Picomoochies? The possibilities are endless

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I got bored and attempted to do some monster math (this is chicken scratch and very likely wrong)

But if your going ~60 miles per hour that should be the same as 249658.8 smoots per mochie.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

I'm looking forward to a few negative moochies as his picks get dumped even before the confirmation hearings.
