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.

It might be the wire? Idk. I only consider it because I blew an extension cord using a space heater in my garage. (Shameful, I know, but I was trying to keep some goddamn tomato plants warm while I was tinkering.) I thought it was rated high enough but ended up tripping the GFCI on the circuit. The heater is fine, outlet was fine, but the extension cord would trip the circuit when I would plug it back in even without the heater attached. I'd probably drive myself mad looking for anything melted if I blew mine in my Subaru. Got a couple dash bulbs burned out and god dammit i don't want to take the damn thing apart again.

I don’t want to take the damn thing apart again

That’s basically where I am. I had just put it all back together recently after an A/C repair and was like “you’ve got to be kidding me.” I know I have to remove the stereo components and whatnot just to get to the port connector, and that may not even be what burned out, but I won’t know until I try replacing that piece and it still doesn’t work. Could be a different wire between that plug and the fuse box. Arg, one day I’ll care enough to look at it again.
