Can't be responsible for a global IT shutdown when you're only a couple percent of the user base!

You forget servers, network appliances, and other infrastructure? That's where the bulk of Linux lives, not on Desktops.

Nuh-uh, I saw a Steam survey that said that less than two percent of computers use Linux!

What do you mean by "the headless internet backbone servers, Android phones, and smart appliances don't have Steam"?

The latest steam survey says 2.08% use Linux.

That's more than 2%, I bet you feel pretty ridiculous now!
