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. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Trust me, you can get tinnitus from listening to very loud music just the once. I've had it since I stood next to a speaker during a concert. Why the speaker was so low down is beyond me. Wasn't able to hear anything for a couple of hours and I've been hearing gas boiler noises ever since.
People made fun of me for using foam ear plugs at a concert, and the occasional gun range idiot who throw various insults my way. Then I shoot my 7.5 inch ar and they either leave or get their own ear pro. Fucking chuds also I'm sorry you gotta deal with it. I've had a few episodes of it, but it's nice not having it be a constant struggle. So I'm sorry you gotta deal with that. I also had a handful of "exploding head syndrome" moments and I honestly didn't know which is worse.
Oooh, they're fun (not), especially when they happen in the middle of the night.
They seem to only happen when I'm right on the cusp of sleep!
Sennheiser and other hifi companies make earplugs specially for concerts and for musicians themselves. You get quality sound, but quieter.
On one hand, it's funny that the issue of overly loud concerts exists in the first place and needs correction. On the other, hearing Amon Tobin at 5000 watt levels leads to a sudden realization that his music isn't chill downtempo idm.
Sennheiser and audio technica are my two favorite audio companies. Thanks for letting me know!
Also didn't know about Brazilian homie, but his name kinda reminded me of the guitarist from animal as leaders.
Tobin released stuff on the Ninja Tune label, which mostly specialized back then in instrumental hiphop, future jazz and such fun and chill musics: like Wagon Christ, Funki Porcini, etc. So his early tunes like βVerbalβ fit the theme nicely, but then he did things like this, which sound straight up scary in person.
