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.

It’s literally a two-story, five-bedroom house that is not a mansion—it’s a regular-ass house. A mansion typically has at least 5 to 10+ bedrooms and a comparable number of bathrooms, usually spanning over 8,000 square feet.

It's a luxury home, 5 bedrooms sure but it's also a huge property in an area where property value is insane.

It also has a pool, hot tub, and tennis court with some yard left over. It's not a boilerplate, built from catalog "McMansion" that are common in the US, but it's bigger than most of those homes tend to be.

It's a large luxury home, we call those mansions.

It's just a little guy.

Where did you get from?

[–] gravitas@pie.gravitywell.xyz 20 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

You know a lot of regular houses with a full size tennis court and pool?

[–] mech@feddit.org 16 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

5 bedrooms
regular-ass house

Have you looked at median incomes in the US lately?

[–] blueduck@piefed.social 2 points 10 hours ago

About 44% of new construction homes over the past 20 years have had 4+ bedrooms. The American Housing Survey uses categories rather than numbers, so 4 and 5+ is the most granular we can get.

It’s a significant problem in the housing market, often called the “missing middle”, where we don’t have enough starter homes for young/new buyers to get on the housing ladder. We are only building large homes used by families who already have a lot of equity

[–] MurrayL@lemmy.world 11 points 13 hours ago

Not really an answer, but the definition of a ‘regular-ass house’ is very different in the UK/EU compared to the US. American suburban homes are huge.

Wasn't this exact question posted somewhere on Lemmy last week?

[–] paraphrand@lemmy.world 11 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

Yes. This is either a bot farming account history, or someone reposting for internet attention/points.

Edit: based on their post history, I’m not sure what to think now.

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

Their other post was taken down a few days ago. You can see the title in OP's modlog.

[–] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 1 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Yes, in different channel; the OP just should start using "cross-post" button.

I wish there was an aggregator of comments from all cross-posted instances of a post. Can't wait till Lemmy 1.0 with plugins thing.

[–] 667@lemmy.radio 5 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I wish there was a way to aggregate communities across all instances, where the community name is identical, rather than having to go out and seek each and every community on a per-instance basis.

[–] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 1 points 13 hours ago

well at least the search feature gives you a list of these communities; fortunately, it's usually short (unless you search for "memes") and you could realistically just join all (like I do)

Piefed has that.

Why does an imaginary house in an imaginary place cause so much internal angst that you have to ask a silly question?

[–] CapuccinoCoretto@lemmy.world 21 points 17 hours ago

Because most people are poor, poorly educated and have no concept of scale.

For 90% of humans on earth, it is so far above experience, it is practically a mansion. For another 5% the "prestige" is sufficient to bridge the credibility gap. The remainder don't play GTA V or talk shit on Lemmy.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 8 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

You're on Lemmy, we're all filthy socialists who have no money. You need to at least try and hide the fact that you're rich and can't relate to people who don't have money for even two bedrooms and for whom anything more is pure luxury and who avoid buying ANY bottled water. (One might think you'd know this by now but one would think a lot of things and you've consistently refuted any such assumptions.)

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Not all leftists/socialists are broke

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 1 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Lies. Possessing even one unit of your local currency instantly makes you a capitalist and brainwashes your mind to blindly believe only the Western mainstream media.

[–] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Has 1 penny in pocket.

Oh no, I'm an evil capitalist now. Guess I need to start building my meth empire... 🤷‍♂️

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 1 points 3 hours ago

No way around it. You have all my sympathies. We'll go light a candle on your behalf at the Temple of Marx in Trier.

[–] blimthepixie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 15 hours ago

Why didn't you include the second sentence in the bit you ripped from wiki?

Some realtors in the US term mansions as houses that have a minimum of 8,000-square-foot (740 m2) of floor space.[10] Others claim a viable minimum could instead be 5,000-square-foot (460 m2) of floor space, especially in a city environment.[11]

[–] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 9 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (2 children)

It's probably worth about 1-15m. It's about location, sadly.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

My 2 bedroom would be worth $1 mill in that location.

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago

It would have been at the high end of that cost. It's a gated yard with a pool/hot tub and a tennis court in the back yard in Beverly Hills.

On a side note there was originally supposed to be a hidden basement(?) room underneath the tennis court that you can gain access to on PC and some glitches on console. It has like a server room, jukebox, bar, and a set up for monitoring/setting up heists. My guess is they ended up deciding against adding it to the final game and left it as an Easter egg or w.e
