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.

It's no more unhealthy than if you were to use it to mix a drink.
That said, check out Soylent and Huel. they make powdered meals that are actually healthy and nutritious. Would be healthier than sugary drink powder.
They said it has no calories so there’s not sugar.
Soylent and Huel are both disgusting.
I don't know. I'd say Soylent Green varies from person to person.
Ok Leela.
It was too good a line not to use here!
The whole Slurm factory episode has to be one of the finest pieces of comedy writing in history.
I don’t know what episode of what show you’re referring to, but Soylent Green is a film from 1973, wherein it turns out it’s made from people. Whatever comedy thing you’re referencing must have been riffing off that.
Futurama, in which Leela is a character, so both users were on the same page before your comment
No contention, just saying
👍
It's Futurama, from the episode "Fry and the Slurm Factory", which itself is a huge riff on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Futurama riffs and nods to old Sci-Fi all the time, and this was just a nice throwaway for those of us old enough to know the source material.
Here's the exchange in full:
It's references all the way down.
Soylent just tastes like a slightly cereal flavored milk to me. I honestly prefer it among all the meal replacements, and I've had about all of them. I'm going to finish my last few bags of jimmy joy and go back to it.
Ok so just curious when you say it’s no more unhealthy than drinking it, what credentials are you basing that assessment upon? I’m not trying to be dickish, this is all to put my wife’s mind at ease.
You're consuming the same thing, water or not. The only risk is choking on it.
Yes I’m aware.
If you were aware, you wouldn't be here.
I'm aware. You did not read everything I said. You're too full of yourself. Relax. Don't be presumptuous.
