The uncertainty of this number is probably at least 1%, more likely 2 to 3%. Giving this number with 2 digits precision makes no sense.

There are margins of error I'm sure, but you're just making things up.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

True! We need a margin of error for the margin of error!

What do I make up? I guess what the uncertainty could be and saying that they shouldn't give such a precise number, if it's in reality not that precise.

Ehh some linux setups may go into unknown but linux users are also more likely to own multiple devices. I dont think its that precise but its impossible to make it precise
