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.

Pay who? As a Canadian there are TV shows I actually can't legally pay to watch because of bullshit licensing crap - there are also ones exclusively available to stream through cable providers that don't operate in my municipality. And, lastly, I was cool paying for Netflix... I am less cool paying for Netflix, Crave, Apple TV, Disney+, Hulu (I actually can't legally pay for that one), Peacock and whatever the fuck else.
I am a consumer that's willing to pay a reasonable price for media, I'm not willing to pay 50 companies 15/month.
Especially with all the price increases + lots of them showing ads anyway? I’m good. Time to put my eyepatch back on and get out on the seven seas bc I ain’t doing this anymore.
It's the pirate's life for me!

Cue the Pirates of Penzance soundtrack:
Pour oh pour the pirate sherry!
Wow, didn't know they made a "Wrong answers only" bot.
Geez, that sucks man. Have you thought about maybe just watching less TV?
👢👢 👅 🍆💦
Wut? Personally the closest thing to TV that I watch is probably Dimension20 on dropout - I just wanted to highlight that it's actually impossible to watch some TV shows. That's how shitty streaming has gotten and why pirating is gaining popularity again.
For a while it was actually less of a pain to do things legally, but now greed has enshittified us to the point where it's less potentially expensive (viruses, legal exposure etc...) to pirate shit than pay for it.
This is also one of the reasons that Steam has drastically reduced video game piracy in most cases - it's easier to just buy it and accept their ToS... but you'll still see ubisoft shit pirated all the time: nobody wants uplay on their machine and the games actually run better for pirates after they strip out malware like Denuvo.
Make your product good and reasonably priced and you'll reduce piracy more than any amount of shitty DRM crap.
Big plus to basically everything on dropout
I don't know if I'm allowed to ask here or not, but do you got any reqs for good torrent sites/trackers these days?
Man, if you had a better tone in this thread I'd have hooked you up.
