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.

Depends on what version and what time It started.

The 1990 version is 192 minutes
The 2017 version is 135 minutes

Keep in mind that PAL DVDs generally play 4% faster than NTSC releases which play at original speed.

[–] 2nsfw2furious@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Isn't that the opposite? PAL plays at 25fps and ntsc plays at 30. Or is the 4% a result of telecine or something?

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yep. Original film is 24fps. As far as I know, for NTSC, 2:3 pulldown is used. In case of PAL, it is simply sped up to 25fps.

[–] CatZoomies@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

To quote the poet:

"I can't imagine running a race with no finish line; just let me keep my pace and make the most of my time."

Time is a figment of your imaginagion, luchtime doubly so.

[–] thelsim@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

It ends when it ends, try to enjoy it while it hasn’t ended yet. You might wish it hadn’t ended by the time it did end :)
(Assuming that the end is not a desired end but an inevitable end)

[–] lvxferre@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

...it = my caffeine withdrawal, right? Right???
