I'm trying to understand how the rules work - is the mod overreacting or misunderstanding?
Hey all.. I don't even know if this is the right community. But figured I'd ask here and worst case no one gives a response....
A bit of a weird question: Can modern medicine be a threat to humanity long-term by greatly reducing effects of natural selection?
OK, I hope my question doesn't get misunderstood, I can see how that could happen....
What's the best wax-on-wax-off-style advice you've heard that you can attest as being helpful in certain situations?
How to work with someone that regularly arrives as the wrong answer?
I work with a person that went presented with a problem, works through it and arrives at the wrong solution. When I have them show me the steps they took, it seems like they interpret things incorrectly. This isn't a language barrier, and it's not like they aren't reading what someone wrote....
When it's ok to celebrate death?
Even though it's against LW rules....
What to watch?
Sick and feel like I've hit the end of Netflix, Prime, ... Is there a community about what everyone is streaming/recommending?
What band or music group would you not have minded if they didn't have a certain band member? ( kbin.social )
My pick is Five Finger Death Punch and the obvious answer is Ivan Moody. The guy radiates that alpha-male wannabe energy and it definitely rings through all of the songs he has written and performed with this band. The guy is just a prick and a self-victimizing asshole....
Qualified experts of Lemmy, do people believe you when you answer questions in your field?
The internet has made a lot of people armchair experts happy to offer their perspective with a degree of certainty, without doing the work to identify gaps in their knowledge. Often the mark of genuine expertise is knowing the limitations of your knowledge....
Has anyone else noticed a large influx of Trolls lately?
This isn't about immediately filtered content, like the disgusting DuffMan George Floyd meme, or Holocaust denial. That's pretty well kept in check by mod tools. I'm also not talking about cogent or even pointed political discussion....
What foods and drinks would you buy more often if money was not an issue?
[serious] If Project 2025 becomes a reality. Would you fight in a civil war?

Who agrees that the Internet and social media are toxic?
[music] is there/ was there/ will there ever be a perfect album?
Every album I’ve ever encountered seems to have a mixture of bangers and one or more meh or outright flops. It’s easier than ever to skip over the tracks now, but as the question asks: what’s is, in your opinion, the perfect album, or does one/can one even exist?
When should you in fact: Ask to speak to a manager?
Chip Enjoyers - What's your favourite brand/type of chip?
Is it a sweatshirt or a jacket? ( lemmy.world )
I have always called a light top with a full zipper to be a jacket, however the people I'm surrounded by insist on calling it a sweatshirt. I'm prepared to be wrong, just wondering if I'm the only one.
Van drivers: how do you merge onto dual carriageways?
I’ve been driving a van for a couple of years now, but I’m much more used to driving a car. My van is heavier and has much less power than my car and I sometimes have trouble merging onto fast roads so I’m looking for any insight from more experienced van drivers....
What are these warehouse store things called? Not strip mall but something else? ( lemmy.world )
They're sort of a hybrid between a strip mall and a business park. I see them in some areas. Two stories always, and a very warehousy design.
