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.

needing food. that would free up a lot of time and money, no input = no output. no dishes, no stove or fridge, no need for a dishwasher, then on the other end, no need for TP, or even a toilet!
If you're still regenerating tissue, your body is still producing weight. Drastically reduced (I'd guess by 75% total, of which 2/3 is dead digestive bacteria you'd no longer need), but still existent.
Fun fact, you don't defecate out weight loss, either. You exhale carbon in CO2
If I breathe more, would I lose more weight?
Fat contains long hydrocarbon H-C-H chains (with other stuff at the end). When it's broken down to release energy, it combines with (3) oxygen O2 molecules, making H=O=H (water, H2O) that you sweat, pee or breathe out, and O=C=O (carbon dioxide) that your breathe out. Carbon accounts for significantly more of the weight than the hydrogen and it's in this sense that you breathe it out.
If you breathe significantly more without exercise, you'll hyperventilate, which I'm sure is even less fun than the exercise in lengthy doses, and I don't think you'll lose weight.
Not effectively. You'll just have a lower concentration of CO2 in your exhaled air. Maybe it'll stay the same with the increase in exertion by breathing more, but that'd be a good way to estimate how little energy your breathing consumes compared to proper exercise. And after all that, exercise is pretty slow to burn calories as well. The good news is your brain burns calories by thinking harder, an activity we're both now involved in
This guy thinks so, but you also have to do cold plunges. And is more about converting your fat into a better kind of fat.

I'm just gonna learn from you and fart glitter. I'm pretty sure I can lose weight that way..
