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.

My laptop came with Office pre-installed but I have this banner showing up every time I open it, is there a way to disable it for good? (lemmy.world)

Uninstall it and go for OnlyOffice (interface etc pretty much like MS Office) or if you are a bit more experienced, go for LibreOffice.

LibreOffice has a bit of a learning curve, if you come from MS-Office but I think it's very much worth it.

A highly underrated feature of LibreOffice Draw is the ability to edit PDFs. Sure it might mess up a font here or there, but there's no way in hell I'm going to pay adobe an absurd amount of money for that one feature.

Ms office has a bit of a learning curve if you come from libreoffice, especially learning to forget the PowerPoint doesn't support styles

~~Hasn't only office had like one update in the last 10 years or something? I stopped recommending that years ago.~~

Edit: not only office, open office doesn't get updated. I misread and mistyped.

Are you thinking of OpenOffice, maybe? OnlyOffice's latest stable release is only three weeks ago, while OpenOffice has only had incremental updates to version 4.1 since 2014.
