So I often have really general questions about stuff ranging from where can I find recomendations on rock quarries? How to seal an asphalt driveway? To, what are some good books to read? And what is the best way to calculate the best fit line in some programming language?

I know about ask metafilter, and google answers both of which seem like the best option out there, but are there any other communities where it is accepted that people will ask questions on wildly differing topics?
