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.

Damn near anything makes the frogs trans, that was the whole plot of the first Jurassic Park. They used frog DNA to fill in the missing bits, and accidentally added the voluntary sex change gene, allowing the dinos to propagate.
That's...actually wrong for once.
The entire plot of the first Jurassic Park was caused by (a) corporate espionage and (b) lack of information about frog biology. (a) directly led to the security systems being sabotaged, and (b) led directly to dinosaurs reproducing into a population the system was not designed for.
Unless you think capitalism is the reason people don't plan for events that cannot be reasonably expected to occur given the information at the time. Note that the paleontologist did not immediately flag the issue either during the intro presentation, so it was obscure enough that even the external experts (not the capitalists) wouldn't have considered it. In universe.
They only hired one IT guy.
Well, do you really think two would have been enough? Even three is a little short, what if one gets the sharts? Four sounds nice, until you realize they can get sick twice. Five gives you four backups, but a revolver carries six shots, so...it would be smart to have infinite IT, because infinite things can go wrong.
