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.

Right handed, so right pocket, spun round so the screen faces outward, wallet and keys in the left, or keys on a lanyard thing clipped to me depending on if they're my car keys or work keys that actually go into a door
Picked that habbit up during the "put the lock button on the back" craze and would have constant issues of it vibrating in my pocket from the lock screen button being tapped and my leg barely managing to tap numbers randomly through my pocket
Also with charging port facing down to prevent lint build up in there. Took awhile to get used to it, but it’s saved me a lot of hassle with bad cable connections.
If it's warm out, having my phone in my pocket facing my leg keeps calling 911 through the emergency functionality on the lock screen.
If anyone knows how to remove that altogether on an S22, that would be amazing.
My S22U automatically blocks touches when it's in my pocket (or when I pick it up from the top and cover the sensor.)
I thought that was a standard feature for Samsungs?
My pixel 5 was supposed to do that as well, it just doesn't seem to work well anymore.

You must use this app. It automatically locks your screen and disable the touchscreen so it does not accidentally dial numbers or anything.
Not sure about the S22, but look for a "tap to wake" or similar option and turn it off. I had the same issue with my pixel 5.
My S22U will still block touches even with the tap to wake on.
