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.

Scalping?
Three mirrors. A tri-fold mirror works great.
two mirrors
Two mirrors, a camera, moving faster than light so that you can catch the photons coming of the back of your head.
One hundred push-ups, one hundred sit-ups, one hundred squats, and a ten kilometre run, every single day.
Also, never, ever use the air conditioning in the summer or heat in the winter, to strengthen the mind.
And of course, eat three meals daily, but just a banana in the morning is fine.
Eventually you'll go bald, and become fast enough to be able to, while standing with your back to a mirror, turn around and see the back of your head.
lotta work
Portals.
Two mirrors.
A hand mirror and the bathroom mirror.
Just to add on: face away from the bathroom mirror and look into the hand mirror, angling it until you can see the reflection of the reflection of the back of your head.
(Figured if someone out there actually needed this advice, the actual method might not be totally obvious to them without explanation.)
If you have an iPhone and an Apple Watch open the remote camera app and point your phone at the back of you head and stare at you watch. If you have an iPhone and a Mac you could use the remote webcam feature.
I’m sure you can do the same things on android with 3rd party apps.
Turn your head side to side really really fast.
how removable are your eyeballs you know what forget I asked just hold your phone pointing into a mirror and look away so the mirror sees your backhead.
I have had good luck with a vanity that has three doors, each a mirror. Hand motions are in reverse, it's weird haha. I haven't benefited from this for a long time, but it got me started. I do, however, cut a mole on the back of my neck sometimes...
I cut my hair with a mirror they sell online. It's 3 mirrors and it can hang from a door. You adjust the mirrors on the side until you can see most of the back, turn your head and look thru the other mirror to get the rest
Two mirrors. Or 1 mirror and your phone's camera. Or even just the camera if you don't care about seeing it in real time. Or go the extra mile and have fun with it by building a telescope that encircles the earth.
- Find a hard surface like a concrete wall or metal desk.
- See if you can find someone to explain what a leveraged buyout is to you.
- Proceed to bash your head into the surface until it makes sense that a company could do that to another company.
You can now see the back of your head!
Bonus step four, go into business as a PE firm and help destroy American economy while enriching the wealthy!
I believe if you gently step over the event horizon of a black hole, the light reflecting off the back of your head will wrap around accretion disk and back into your eyeballs. It requires a bit of setup and is kind of a one-time thing, but you'll get a much better view than you could get with a mirror!
A friend of mine tried but it showed him with no-hair
I see what you did there... I think... My head hurts...
Small correction: You'll want to be at the photon sphere, not the event horizon (1.5x the Schwarzschild radius). You can theoretically hover there for an unlimited time, and even escape, as long as you don't mind the immense acceleration necessary. :)
I tried this. On an unrelated note who's up for some spaghetti?
This didn't work for me at first, but I tried it a second time and it actually worked! You weren't kidding about it being a one-time thing though, because I haven't been able to do it since.
Next time you do it, remember what you did in your previous only attempts. It'll help make the only shot you have be successful for once, since once is all you get. If you keep at it, you'll get better with practice, and maybe eventually, you'll be able to make it happen for the first time.
The turnstiles from Tenet.
Camera?
Easiest way is to stand with your back to a large bathroom mirror or vanity while holding up a hand mirror to your eyes to look back at the big mirror.
Source: cut my own hair.
- Find yourself a Spacetime Bender guru, preferably with a boomerang shaped birthmark on his scalp
- Become a generational talent
- ???
- Contemplate your inevitable bald spot
- Two mirrors.
- Take a photo or video holding your smartphone behind your head pointed at you.
- I suppose if you needed to see it in roughly realtime, you could figure some way to live-stream your smartphone camera to a screen in front of you.
The only other ideas that are coming to me are joke answers like "bend over backwards and lay the back of your head on the bed of a photocopier" or "visit a hall of mirrors."
What's your purpose for doing so?
What’s your purpose for doing so?
Curiosity, of course!
Dip your head in paint and smack the back against some canvas.
two mirrors opposite one another at just a slight angle.
a mounted webcam behind you while you're on your pc.
Get a handheld mirror, and use it in conjunction with your bathroom mirror. Or use your cell phone to take a picture of the back of your head, using a timer if it’s too awkward to hit the button.
