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.

From your own link:
🤦
That's setting aside that physics being physics, it doesn't matter how much water is underground since removing mass from underneath the ocean means the water in the ocean will fill the empty space created and the resulting water level will lower. How did groundwater even factor into this discussion? Sheesh.
What. Do you not get the concept of volume? Forget your sites and papers and studies, you need to go back to grade school.
Argh.
Look, imagine you have an aquarium. You fill the bottom half up with the solid of your choice. Gravel, sand, clay, whatever. Then you fill up the rest of it with water. You've created a simple model of the ocean, including the groundwater you're talking about
Now dig out a hole in the middle and toss the sand you dug out into the trash. Your water level will lower, because you've removed some mass that was occupying some volume and the water will fill that empty space. You've successfully lowered the ocean level. It doesn't matter how much groundwater there is, it's totally irrelevant to the question OP posted.
If you don't believe in sea levels rising, you're utterly moronic. Not another word you type holds any validity.
What a buffoon!
Just curious, does that amount of stupid ever burn? Because when I see that amount of ignorance I saw “the stupid, it burns”.
