    You can either get something that is representative, so the median, by choosing mid traits (mid spiritualistic, mid artistic, mid intro/extroverted, med IQ), or by choosing at random. Everything else would not be representative, and depending on your own traits, you would be biased - eg. non spiritualistic, non artistic, introverted, anxious, mid IQ, technology oriented, but also trans and depressed. Some of those I would obviously not see as an average trait, but being atheist and non-spiritualistic would definitely be on my list, despite not being the actual norm.

    Ich bin gelegentlich noch dabei, neue Dienste aufzusetzen, eine geteilte Ablage für alle Geräte in meinem Netzwerk hin zu bekommen, sobald wir Glasfaser bekommen und ich meinen Zweitwohnsitz in Frankfurt habe muss ich dann sämtliche Netzwerke umgestalten:

    • Ein Servierer zu Hause, ein mal im Koaxialbasierten Netzwerk (1 GB hoch, 50 MB runter) meines Vaters, an der alten Fritz!Box 6660 Kabel, sowie meinem eigenen Glasfaser Netzwerk (1 GB hoch, 500 MB runter) , der Servierer dient als Brücke dazwischen.
    • Ein Servierer in Frankfurt an meinem Koaxialnetzwerk (1 GB runter, 50 MB hoch). Die beiden Servierer sind baugleich und mit Kabelwache verbunden, sodass ich auf alles gegenseitig zugreifen kann. Die Servierer sind dabei für die Zurückhochs zuständig.

    We do that. But at some point, it has to stop. We can’t just say “one last client” when new ones come in right after the previous leaves, and you don’t want to be unfair. And cleaning takes HOURS. Even in a small fast food restaurant. You need to strategically close things down, preferably things we’re out of anyway.

    Well, why what? Why do I have to install it? Because there are A LOT of old people in my village, who only ever used windows, and when I repair their stuff or get them new stuff I often have to (re)install windows. And windows is the virus I’m talking about, because IMHO, it literally IS Spyware, Adware and a Trojan. Literally every criteria is met for those kinds of viruses. MacOS is just a lighter Spyware and potentially a Trojan, but can be expanded to be all three (especially a RAT Trojan) very easily. Linux, on the other hand, has only very few, single instances of separate Distros having ads (Canonical/Ubuntu) or Spyware via Telemetry (Also Ubuntu), but not only can Telemetry be disabled, one could also use another distro. Like Arch btw.

    I regularly infect other peoples Laptops, and my own VMs as well, with a very common Spyware/Adware/Trojan. It comes in two different versions, the newer one being much more aggressive than the older one. It’s a ‘premium’ product costing up to $250 officially. The only way to really get rid of it is a full disk clean, otherwise it hides itself into separate, hidden partitions. It IS very annoying to install, considering it’s very slow, buggy and needs a terminal to circumvent the online account (even more tracking, technically, but I don’t want to create an account myself). And it even crashes all the time, takes ages to update and is a magnet for other viruses. I myself of course don’t have it, i use Linux after all. But most people seem to like Windows, for some reason, so I have to install it for them.
