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.

30p87@feddit.deto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is the worst experience you have ever had involving Viruses/Malware?43·1 year agoWell, 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.
30p87@feddit.deto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is the worst experience you have ever had involving Viruses/Malware?284·1 year agoI 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.

30p87@feddit.deto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•People who are 1s and 2s on this scale, do you watch adult video?25·1 year agoIt’s even worse considering Apple users have already had one bite removed.
what may appear whimsical to men who receive them may seem creepy to women.
Isn’t this site supposed to - yk - support the equality of all genders?
30p87@feddit.deto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•iPhone users, what's stopping you from switching to Android?49·1 year ago- I have had a lot of bad experiences with paid iOS apps, very little with free apps on Android - and even if so, there are dozens of FOSS alternatives
- Even worse
- Depends on which phone you choose; my 200€ Moto does have a pretty bad camera, but pretty good specs overall
30p87@feddit.deto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•which one do you prefer? having kids or no kids? and why??6·1 year agoInterpretierte Instruktionen falsch, Kind steckt in Toaster fest!
Getting 25000 points in Super Turbo Turkey Puncher 3.
At that point it’s better for me to just get the food directly, because I’m the most socially incompetent person alive, especially on the phone.
May I introduce you to the german government?
30p87@feddit.deto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Using Google whilst Duck Duck Go is down. How long has Google been this bad?53·1 year agoThis is an article often quoted, which makes it seem like it’s a kind of consensus. Yet one of the main points, taxes, can just be disproven by reading the Kagi FAQ about it. Find it by searching “Kagi inc tax” on any search engine, like Kagi itself. Or just https://help.kagi.com/kagi/faq/sales-tax-vat.html.
We weren’t initially required to collect sales tax/VAT until reaching certain thresholds, typically defined by the number of customers in a jurisdiction or sales volume.
And sooo many other things in this article are purely based on assumptions, incorrect data and misquotes. This personal blog is exactly none better than your average hustle-finance-nazi-bro podcast, in almost all terms (except political views).
30p87@feddit.deto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Using Google whilst Duck Duck Go is down. How long has Google been this bad?82·1 year agoIf you have spare hardware lying around and a public IP (or a server anyway), you can selfhost SearXNG.
If you’re fine with paying 12$/month (with tax) for a customizable search engine, very accurate and transparently sourced/quoted LLM, and just a better index than any other search engine I know, use Kagi. I heard some rumors and bad things, but nothing to do with privacy, only the aforementioned tax.
And for a free search engine which claims privacy and is an alternative to DDG, with its own index afaik, Brave.
Probably 0, because no service I use needs them, and I’d rather read the TL;DR bot than click on an article, if I don’t know the website.
30p87@feddit.deto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is there a Firefox extension that allows me to toggle microphone access so that I'm only sending mic audio when I want to?3·2 years agoProbably not that useful for OP, as they want an extension, but: On Linux one could use pavucontrol to individually set volume (in and out) and devices for every single stream, including single tabs.

Ne me, cuz I’m only 18, but my grandparents do still have them. Only for really old photos tho, even they are only using their phone and tablet now.
Just that your whole plan would collapse if they’re voluntary and therefore chilling at home/work/whatever, until an official 911 call is made, exactly as in my case.
Idfk, for me almost everything with visible blue in it is blue.
