There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐.

I heard someone clarify that it's not so much answering with the word no, as it is dismissing the implication of the headline. In most cases that's a no, but it's easy enough to flip the meaning.
If the heading is avoiding making a statement, it's because the statement is false/unsupported.
