!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.

Isn't that just a different way of answering the question though? Do you think 60 years is the answer but don't want to say that?
60 years is within the reasonable lifespan of a human whereas 150 is not.
How? I mean, it's just so easy to get a new ID, birth certificate, social security number, credit history, etc. You just assume a new one.
People always say they would get a new identity but never how
Buy an infant mortality's birth certificate every decade and put them into use once the poor tike would have hit 25.
It helps to be in a profession that processes death certification so you can make sure it doesn't get processed.
Crime mostly.
Yeah you can pay a bunch of money to shady people who did some identify theft stuff to get the ID.
When you fail a few times, you lower your standards and boom
Yakuza.
I believe that most states require you to retake an ID photo every so often, same goes for passports. You could age relatively normally and still retain ID as long as you renew when it expires and update photos as required.
And it's not entirely out of the question that even with the same real birthdate, such a legitimate ID of an immortal could be overlooked.
Just explain it with preaching the miracle effect that fecal masks have had on your signs of aging.
Get those mortal idiots to rub shit on their faces.
ah, you can pretty much go on and nobody will ever notice.... ah, you meant immortal, i thought you said immoral... nvm
