Happy to help.
Keep in mind you can censor and hesitate on non-garunteed instances. But to endorse either you or someone who has been garunteed needs to garuntee them first.
The list of servers that are garunteed is confusingly called the "white list".
Now that I garunteed you you can garuntee up to 20 other instances, but you can endorse any number of instances.
You cant garuntee a server that is already garunteed, it will give a warning and **not** consume one of your 20 slots. You can also revoke a garuntee and free up one of your 20 slots. Revoking a garuntee will however invalidate everything in the trust tree below you if the orphaned instance doesnt find a new guarantee (or you regaruntee) within 24 hours.
I think thats more or less the gist of it. Keep in mind a guarantee only means "this server isnt predominately spam", it isnt an indication of trust itself beyond that.

@purplepadma Commercial entities use it to advertise into the void.. But as a research scientist myself (and usually the one who does the hiring/firing/promoting) I can assure you, it does absolutely nothing to advance your career, and if it does anything it might even hurt it these days.
@purplepadma Ha, you wont... No one in the tech industry will hold it against you for not being on Twitter.. .in fact quite the opposite, the very opinionated ones will likely hold it against you and everyone else wont care.
@ProstasiaInc Pretty sure their moderation is limited to bots in almost all cases... so not surprised.
Wonderful.. though as I think only a single moderator can have access, not sure, and it may be limited to admins (that what it says but i got a mod account on)...
Anyway good luck and if there is anything I can do to help please feel free to reach out to me.

Wouldnt be too hard to figure out... figure out the percentage of the population that drives, the percentage each year that dies in car accidents, and the average number of miles driven per person... you can then calculate the chance of death per mile.
Covid youd have to 1) find the chance you will get infected if you hug or are near a person infected 2) find the percentage of people infected that die...
That should handle both cases, and the info is out there.. im just too lazy right now to do it :)
Rights? Not be murdered? Treated like a human being?
Are we doing that again in the USA? I am not getting all my memos :)
In all seriousness... on behalf of all of the USA I apologize for the shit you deal with.. it isnt right and it saddens me every day I see it. You have all my best wishes.
Im not sure this approach to analysis is really fair...
The total number of fatalities means nothing if it isnt adjusted against the change of death per mile... and the COVID deaths mean nothing unless you represent it as a chance of death per infection.
What we measure here is important.
@failedLyndonLaRouchite She is driving a bit of a distance... I'd be curious to do the math on that actually and see how they compare.. But considering I know quite a few dead older people from COVID and cant think of a single person I've ever known who died in a car crash... well... that doesnt track.
@shonin I told my mom if she wanted she could stand outside my closed door while I yell aggressively that I love her through it :)

@thor It cant be gay if there are no balls touching!
There is a small chance I may have COVID as I was recently exposed.... My mom is insisting on stopping by while she is in town to give me a hug...
I told her I have COVID it wouldnt be safe, no...
She replies "I dont care I'll take the risk"
To which I keep telling her "Well I refuse to potentially murderer you over a hug whether your willing to take that risk or not."
@realcaseyrollins I mean.. #ACAB and all.. exercising your rights is a sure way to get your rights abused... Best way to make sure our rights are respected is to never exercise them
(PS NOW I am joking)
@freemo @StevenBeschloss He told his followers that a likely witness against him in one of his trials should be killed. So nothing new, really, and nothing will be done about it.
I meant "court" not "prison"... that is a Freudian slip if i ever saw one...
@freemo Haha
In all honesty part of me wonders if abuses should be fought in court instead of with officers. Especially since legal precedents are usually used to determine standard operating procedures moving forward.
If you fight a cop, you will likely not win. You might still win in court but why get beat up and win in court if you can win in court without getting beaten, y'know?
@realcaseyrollins Assuming you survive long enough to make it to court... and assuming you have the huge amount of money it takes to fight it in court... and assuming you thought ahead and were smart enough to record everything... then yea, court DOES make sense.
The issue is for the vast majority of citizens court isnt a practical option. And may not be worth the lifetime of disability or death it takes to get to prison.
