No Stupid Questions
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.

Facebook doesn't delete shit anyway, don't bother unless you have some public posts on that account, which you don't want others to see
AFAIK California and EU law compels them to actually delete it if you explicitly ask them to.
I had a friend try something similar with Hello Fresh; he got a free sample from another friend but wanted to remove his data afterwards. It took a lot of deep website navigating and a phone call, and even then it was going to take "up to 60 business days" or assume BS to actually remove his data. They make it difficult to remove on purpose while technically being able to say they will.
The 60 days is part of such laws, but most of the time it takes about two weeks. Talking from experience.
Oh my sweet summer child
I don't know about the California law but GDPR has actual consequences, fines of 20 Million Euros OR 4% of the total global turnover of the previous financial year, whichever is higher.
Yeah. Do not fuck with the EU. Their fines aren't like American ones where you see companies just eat fines as the cost of doing business.
Don't forget making USB-C the universal connection and, coming in the next few years, a law requiring user replaceable batteries in mobile devices. Stuff like this shows how much of a positive thing the EU is and amplifies my anger at Brexit on a logarithmic scale every time I read news like this and know that the UK government is going to fuck us all over good and proper.
I've wasted too much of my time already, its probably not worth it given I haven't made any problematic posts ln there.
