Again, I would say using the “100%” in science when evaluating something is not a very good term to use. I think you know that.
Yeah OK that’s technically correct.
It’s also been pointed out that they are using ‘bit’ in a way people here are not thinking they are using it: https://lemmy.world/comment/14152865
Oh boy.
Which is exactly what bit means.
Which is not bits, but the equivalent 1 digit at base 10.
This just shows the normal interpretation of bits.
If it’s used as units of information you need to specify it as bits of information. Which is NOT A FREAKING QUANTIZED unit!
And is just showing the complete uselessness of this piece of crap paper.
