You Should Know
YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
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.
Posts and comments 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 non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer 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.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
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- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Lazy users just posting whatever 3rd hand half truth they misunderstood is a scourge. It might as well be a glue-pizza recommending AI post.
Glue pizza might actually be better. Ask yourself why anyone would need to make cheese stick to pizza. Because that's not really a typical culinary issue. So, the answer came from practical effect strategies for a commercial cheese-stretch shot.
Now, I'm not saying that there isn't still an issue with this type of misunderstanding. But, it's not "hur-dur, just glue it" that everyone always paints it as.
It's more interesting than that and raises issues about how questions are framed and how answers are digested.
I agree AI hallucinations can be far more dangerous and more believable than glue on pizza. I used that reference because everyone remembers it. Pulling "answers" with no context is the problem.
Another way of saying that would be to use the tool with context in mind. But ya, there's issues.
Except i didnt "just post" it. I asked someone who seemed knowledgable. Pardon me for seeking correction.
Nb4 you tell me to "just google it" while putting on your signature look of superiority
Edit: better yet, i asked it in response to an incredibly vague post which offered no info on the claims actually being stated. So, what, everything posted about wikipedia is untrue? Well someone in this thread said its a good source of info, guess i need to disregard that too.
You made a claim with absolutely no references or sources then asked someone else to disprove your claim. That's not how conversations or debates work at all. If you're incapable of fact checking even the most basic statement conversations with you will never be productive and you'll only be a useful idiot repeating the last thing you misread, do better.
Lmfao, teaching bad. Got it.
You act like I was spreading misinformation. Check my comment history and link one instantce of me spreading that as factual. Spoiler: you cant.
I literally informed in the comment you are referring to that it was unvalidated, and once again(i have to reiterate due to your low reading comprehension) I asked an expert.
We are on a forums website, the point is the spread of information. It is wildly unrealistic for me to fact check every claim I read, which is why the best option is to take unvalidated claims with a grain of salt.
Speaking of useful idiot spreading the last thing they misread, you may want to reread my entire comment thread. You clearly missed the entire framing of the conversation, to the point im questioning that you read it all beyond the first sentence, where you then assumed I was just parroting bullshit like your final statement.
The person you asked to correct the incorrect information you posted isn't an expert nor should random people be forced to correct your incorrect statements even if they were an expert. Double down and do the mental gymnastics you need to, it doesn't matter that much to me, but maybe try to verify information before you just repeat things you think you read.
