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.

IRB training for grad research. It’s just so long and tedious. Also why the hell would I need to know the names of specific cases and not just the regulations/reasons?

β€œWhat journal article spurred on the 1974 act?”

Idk, but I highly doubt the name of a random article will be at all relevant to me conducting ethical research

Short answer, maintenance. Long answer, hurting my back

I should be finishing up a morning walk and getting started working, but I can never get enough sleep these days

[–] Pudutr0n@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Being at a beach with family. Got overstimulated so much breathing was hard, barely made it to a air-conditioned room and try to catch some dry time.

Beach is dirty Ocean water is dirty Sun causes cancer

Never understood the draw

Drawing up stuff to put into a cryogenic fridge in order to measure dialectric shit at 0.01K in a magnetic field.

Writing the Working Instructions for unsecured cargo trades or the tl;dr on the EU's 21st sanctions package on Russia.

Well, there's no immediate time crunch on changing these electrical outlets, but that's what my phone and coffee are putting off for now.

[–] HollowNaught@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I'm sitting in front if a machine worth about 30k I'm supposed to be using to take photos

So yeah that

Theoretically, something, but work has put me in a position where I have extremely little not only to do, but that I can do within my mandate. I'm fulfilling my one obligation, but it involves a rather lengthy wait.

[–] forestbeasts@pawb.social 2 points 1 month ago

We should be taking a shower and eating. (Unfortunately we can't do both of those at the same time but both have to get done.)

We are doing neither and also have to pee. So yeah, this is going well.

Nothing, I have the day (and all other Wednesdays until October) off so I'm just hanging out on my couch at 8am instead of working. It's nice. Might go play some games later

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

Probably finish a drawing I made (on the wrong type of paper):

[–] starlinguk@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I should be visiting Basel MΓΌnster but I'm sitting on the platform above the Rhine instead because for some reason walking up the steps has made me very sick.

[–] WeavingSpider@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Starting dinner and have leftovers ready to take to work tomorrow, but fuck, I don't want to move.

Paying attention to this presentation and waking myself to to give mine in 15 minutes and not sound like an undead drone.
