I will mock this specific ad for overusing the word to a comical degree, though.

Don't get me wrong. I agree. Mock away. I was just commenting on how this is something we can't seem to get away from.

No worse than the "atomic" or "space-age" days that followed, and way better than "block-chain" or "AI" of today.

I do appreciate comments like these, which is unfortunate; I would have enjoyed replying to this with "Jark!"

Seems pretty good for 1.1 x .9, and for .9 x .8

I guess values must be pretty close

Frequency of use related to monthly cost of clothing item categories - illustration from a very detailed article on tracking worn clothes in c/dataisbeautiful@mander.xyz
[–] toast@retrolemmy.com 4 points 4 weeks ago

I can't imagine that 3 years of data is even remotely enough for this. I have articles of clothing that are decades old (3+ decades old), but I have never bought any piece of clothing expecting it to last that long, and the clothing that lasts isn't always the type that I'd expect. At best, 3 years is enough for a "snapshot" of the life of most clothing, I would think.

Then again, I've owned the same car for the last 21 years, so maybe I am not a typical consumer.
