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.

Proliferation of spaceships for everybody. Obsoleting the old paradigm we've all been artificially hog-tied to.
Zero point energy, zero inertia propulsion, can print another of itself instantly, can sustain human life indefinitely, safe enough for a 2 year old to fly home in.
Aim high.
No need for these resource "wars" jingoism. No human cull necessary. Abundant resources and space.
Overlap of tech that avails all space to us, as tech that allows clean sustainable efficient use of earthly resources.
I heard recently that when there are high downvotes, it could be because "you're over the target".
Especially with things like that.
Why oh why would anyone be against that?

A lot of TR-3B manufacturers around here, not liking the competition of superior tech obsoleting their industry? ;) LOL.

[Edit: seeing this again, at 6 downvotes..
... We are in a lot of trouble, if there are people who have succumbed to the notion we need a human cull.]
We already have more than enough wealth on earth to feed and shelter all humanity, we don't any absurd tech, though that would make it easier. Without substantial social changes though this advance would only benefit the elite.
