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.

So you truly believe that all the resources they're wasting vs the fun they have as a group is a net positive to the world? I hope this year's fuck up is enough to shut down the event for the foreseeable future and I won't shed a single tear or have any pity for any of them that gets hurt because of their ridiculous recreation.
Do you know how much money is wasted on the Super Bowl? If there was an earthquake at the Super Bowl and it killed someone would you be there saying "Shouldn't have wasted that money, serves you right!"
Is the Superbowl happening in the middle of the desert in already muddy conditions even though people were warned it's not a good idea to go? Sorry I don't follow football.
You better go find out so you know if they deserve to die or not.
My point is, it doesn't matter how much you know about a subject. It's somebody's life. Somebody lost a loved one that day, and it was a tragedy regardless of how much smarter you are than them.
Do you know how many people in the world die because of the North American lavish lifestyle? A whole fucking lot.
That's strangely irrelevant to the conversation, but thanks for the fun fact, I guess.
Just pointing out that their death is pretty meaningless in the grand scheme of things especially as these are people that don't care about the impact of their lifestyle on the life expectancy of people in poor countries (the people make all their stuff they're addicted to).
Anyway, they put themselves in that shit and pretend it's about extreme survival (in a 200k$ offroad camper), so tough luck. It's no more dramatic than the death of a westerner that decided to spend a fortune to go climb the Everest.
