1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected] or [email protected]
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I don't know how this works in the US, but where I live after a year subscription (let's say for your internet provider or something). They can only renew per month. So if the year subscription is over you can cancel any service every month and they can't hit you with any fees.
Back in the day if you'd forgot to cancel your plan you'd be stuck with them for another year. It sucked!
Riding down a mountain road on a bicycle, going 50 mph, without a helmet on.
Most investment instruments, apparently, going by the reactions I get when I explain shorting IRL. It's like people think there's only a few approved transactions and doing anything creative (or actually standard but clever) must be a crime. Feudalism's over, guys.
Non-profit scams. You can set one up, put out a call for donations claiming you do some blah blah blah work, and give yourself most of the money in the form of a salary/bonus. Only a small percentage of the money ever needs to go to anyone in need.
This happens in all sorts of corporate and religious charities. The NFL was technically non-profit for many years, and that should say it all.
Walking around absolutely drenched in water.
Spam calls. Like, if you're willing to spend, what, 50 dollars?, you can absolutely destroy people's sanity with never ending calls from disposable numbers
