10 months agoI didn’t crunch the numbers, but as far as I see, most of the linux growth comes from the Steam deck, which runs a Linux OS.
This could also be the reason for the decrease of OSX, because more other, non classical computer, devices are included, which automatically reduces the share of Laptop and PC devices.
Wouldn’t agree with that… There are many different units and multipliers. the letter being uppercase or lowercase has nothing to do with it.
Examples:
letters for prefixes/multipliers being uppercase and lowercase: P, T, G, M, k, h, da, d, c, m, u, n (trillion, billion, million, thousand, hundred, ten, one tenth, one hundredth, one thousandth, one millionth, one billionth)
Letters for units being uppercase and lowercase: s, m, g, N, W, J, A, K, V, h, Hz (seconds, meter, gram, Newton, Watt, Joule, Ampere, Kelvin, Volt, hour, Hertz) (just recognised, that most units, which are named after scientists, are written with capital letters…)
km = thousand meters/kilometer
K = Kelvin (unit for temperature)
M = Mega (prefix for one million)
kJ = thousand joules
s = second
ms = millisecond (one thousandth)
S = siemens (electrical conductivity)
mS = milli siemens
mm = millimeter (one thousandth of a meter)
Mm = megameter (one million meters or thousand kilometers)
