A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

MODERATORS
Probably somewhere in the Netherlands or Denmark.
But where we live now in the middle of Germany could also qualify. Our house and the neighbours form a perfect tunnel to accelerate wind. I'm amazed that the most serious damage we had so far was just some fences being broken.
I lived in the south, and we used to get some crazy wind storms
Top of a dike during a hurricane, could lean forward in a 45° angle without falling over
Wellington NZ during a wind storm. I spent a whole afternoon jumping into the wind and practically floating down the beach, and it's probably the most fun I've ever had sober.
Yur bedroom
Shenandoah National Part during a wind storm in March. It’s not always windy there but holy shit that was some wind.
[STOP]
Arches National Park. I could actually lean into the wind and would get blown back when I jumped.
Sleeping Bear Dunes. There was only one type of tree that could survive.
what type?
Looked like a quaking aspen
Kansas
