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. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

They often still have the expensive microphone, but use an unplugged tiny microphone just for the aesthetics.
I have to imagine this is the case for a decent chunk of people with those tiny mics, right? Sometimes the audio quality of the talker sounds way better than I would expect from essentially a lapel microphone, and there's just a regular microphone out of frame.
Not going to lie the tiny mics are a pet peeve of mine like many others in this thread, but I can't explain it well as to why haha.
I don't know if this is true but the absurdity is hilarious to me so I'm choosing to believe you.
I have seen a few you tubers jokingly show that it was disconnected. Because yes, at some point even that became a meme. But I couldn't find an example off the top of my head.
So make a new business of selling empty tiny mics... No wires, no circuits... But 20% cheaper
It may work out...
The fad has passed. Now the trend is using random objects as microphones.
I'm a big fan of not an engineer, who just uses random objects
not the only person I've seen do it, but the first that comes to mind
There was a time that this was something we made fun of. Now this is the goal
Is that Al ? (This "l" is an "L", as in AL)
No it's Garth, though his last name starts with Al.
