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.

I believe they meant living north of the line in this image you might be able to find a house for that price (probably meaning: not likely.) but that far north is not going to be great for gardening.
But, hey, climate change is your friend here!
I can always hot house them or whatever. Is it cold up there? Because I love the cold I keep my windows open and fan on when in the middle of winter. How is the internet speed in Canada? Or up in the parts posted? Which is the best company? Is there room for a part time job nearby or easy to go into town for basic needs and stuff?
lol, yes -- it's very cold up there.
If you leave your windows open and fan on in the middle of winter there, you will die.
I just like to where a nice sweat shirt or a hockey jersey with shorts 90% of the time. Kind of like getting an ice cold kiss from mother nature but also a warm hug.
Yeah, but up there all your water pipes will freeze and rupture. But you don’t need to worry, you’ll be dead.
I can piss outside. And drink beer and mtn dew and find out where you live and warm up by cuddling with you at night /s
If you're serious about this you should visit for yourself, ideally in the middle of winter. You definitely won't want to keep your windows open in the middle of winter. Yes it's cold. This winter was particularly long for some reason, Toronto is only just getting out of winter and towns further north still have ice.
I couldn't say, I'm stuck in expensive-ass NY. I just knew what they meant by 60th parallel.
Dumb question is it bad as they say or as great as they say? I mean is there homeless everywhere and it smells like piss and you always find hobo's sleeping on a subway? And rats everywhere? And if you are in a wrong part of town not knowing you will probably get mugged or worse?
That's more a NYC thing, I'm on long island, but I've been to the city many times and I wouldn't say the homeless are everywhere, but they also aren't entirely rare. The mugging stuff might happen depending on where you are and what time it is, but you'd have to really go off track from where you intended on being quite a bit to end up in those areas.
Can a white person go to Harlem? Without fearing for their life? My brother always wanted to go to that and hells kitchen....daredevil huge fan.
I won't pretend I'm an NYC expert or anything, but I do believe harlem has changed a lot from what the stereotypical idea of that area once was. I couldn't say for sure so don't place your safety in this Internet strangers hands lol
