minus-squaremannycalavera@feddit.uklinkfedilinkarrow-up10·4 days agoThis is a relative scale. 100 being the baseline.

minus-squareTar_Alcaran@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up2·3 days agoThat makes a lot more sense. Or the quality was originally absolutely terrible.
minus-squareRicaz@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·4 days agoSpecifically from around 40-50% to 70-80%. It’s impossible to get more than roughly 85-90% purity as that’s the purity they export.

minus-squareyermaw@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 days agoFor our purposes, 140 will do fine.
