Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity 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.

Because replies sometimes force me to facepalm too much. My face hurts.
Agreed. Could be a relatively active post, excellent engagement and then:
doofus1: "Is this AI?" <it clearly isn't>
doofus2: "Now that you mention it....proceeds to launch 5 paragraphs as to how it's AI....blah, blah..." <it isn't AI>
experts1, 2, &3: "It's not AI"
doofuses 1& 2, whilst being downvoted into oblivion, push back ad nauseum despite admitting they could be wrong.
14 comments in the thread later, a mod removes some....
Original post succesully derailed.
OP deletes popular post, bc "Why bother?"
lather.rinse.repeat.
Yup, not giving food to the "debate me" sea lion.
