As a pro statistician I can say this is a very common failing people apply to tons of subjects... You can **not** compare absolute rates between countries and presume it is the result of a policy, thats considered invalid analysis.
When we analyze policy we look at the rate of change in the background incident rate immediately following a change in policy. You must compare the country to itself at an earlier period before the policy was adopted. It is the only way to reasonably hold most other factors constant.
@EubieDrew Not much to it...
Go here and add an entry for yourself, make sure you pick a name that is unique but it can be any name you'd like as long as its numbers, letters, and spaces and all lower case.

See trinsec for an example of a user that is not an instance rep nor a council member.. though add your pgp fingerprint if you have one (option).
Once the merge request is approved youll be a registered member, I will active your profile page and you can link to it from your profile and it will get a green verified checkmark like mine.
You kidding me, fediblock is a horrific choice... the person who runs that blocks anyone she doesnt like, has been caught explicitly suppressing evidence that disagrees with her, and has provided evidence that later was proven to be a lie and she kept it anyway.
Look at the talk page for people calling her out on QOTO for example.
well it lists when the block was last seen, so while it does hold onto blocks removed it lets you know the block was removed at least.
Not sure if thats a good or bad feature itself mind you, just saying.
I was linked directly to the page with the list, I dont even think its in the footnote there.
Yea this is tht vile KF list that i didnt know was written by KF and used once and everyone got mad (and I understand why)... I dont touch this list since I learned it was written by KF.
@EubieDrew hey, would you like me to add you as a **registered** member on UFoI.. it basically means you get a profile page that links back to your profile so you can add a verified link to show people you are a part of the eUFoI (you are automatically an unregistered member regardless).
See my mastodon profile for a link to my UFoI profile as an example.
@stux He eats cactus leaves like I eat pizza.
@saiv46 Oh sorry, I missed the fact that this was a reply to something.. please report it so the users can investigate... also would you mind adding an english translation to your report so we can act quicky?
@saiv46 You mean the UFoI? It isnt an instance.. also how could it be, we dont have control over UFoI members
We are all stardust.
That oxygen you breath? That comes from dying massive stars, ending their light in a supernova.
The iron in your blood? Some massive stars dying, but mainly white dwarfs, the leftovers of dwarf stars like our own Sun, exploding.
The gold ring on your finger? Mostly merging neutron stars, leftovers from supernovae.
@pwinn @EubieDrew You could send a kind email to the admin and ask if there was a mistake... when i emailed admins that blocked us more than half removed the block.
@admitsWrongIfProven hahaha, interestingly enough these are knownt o be **faster** than traditional bikes, by quite a bit.
@admitsWrongIfProven yea this is a tadpole trike technically
@admitsWrongIfProven Nope, this is a legit bike :) and it is amazing!
@admitsWrongIfProven I find bicycles to be exactly the right number of cycles, monocycles have too few and tricycles have too many
Wonderful. Do you want to add that to the git so you get credit? If you cant be arsed I'll just add it.
