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

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.

I mentioned to a family member how much I like my garlic press. I then received a garlic press for Christmas and will certainly be regifting it.
Is your family member Google Ad Sense?
"I see you spent a week researching PSUs for your computer and I see that you finally bought one. Would you like to buy a PSU? because even though we know you bought one we'll be showing you nothing but ads for PSUs for the foreseeable future."
Its really bad when you're in your living room talking about PSUs, then all of a sudden the only adds you see online are about PSU's.
Yeah, I'd be all like, "wtf happened to my ad blocker!?"
Speaking of which, if you talk about ad blockers in your living room, do you get ads for those?
Why have you not violently disposed of your "smart" electronics that apparently permanently monitor you for amazons profit?
Ad Sense doesn’t know you’ve made your purchase.
