I know I just thought the free trial would be more accurate.

I haven't thought about sales taxes, i guess you do pay more taxes if you count those.

Although not really similar to a subscription in that case.

Probably because unlike paying for the service, we don't feel how it takes our money from us.

A psychological trick that works so great that it made a lot of services exist in the first place like the whole of YouTube. And now we're kinda addicted to those too.

I wouldn't call it sharing... don't know about you but where i live you pay less taxes when having a child, and i've never seen a service make you pay less to share it.

That's taxes. Life in general though, well that's literally sharing.

Yeah to be fair if you do all the homework with LaTeX there's no reason not to set up your machine.

I've even heard of someone who even used it to take notes in class... Honestly I wouldn't dare to try and learn that!

But yes, that's when the macros and possibilities you don't have on overleaf becomes really good to have.

Well yes but overleaf makes it possible to work on it with a mate, on any device without having to install anything, and it also saves your progress online so you don't lose it or forget you document at home.

If your not seeing were i'm going it's perfect for school project. Through high school and college i've done all my projects with it... I think that's where it shines.

In what cafes and sandwich shop do you go to? I've never seen one that was closed during launch hours.

It's getting rarer but their is some that only open in launch hours instead of the whole afternoon, restaurant can have some specific services hours. (And some cafes stop serving drinks while serving food.)

French culture is to eat at specific hours, so it would be almost impossible to serve food only outside those.

Synchronized favorites is pretty nice too.

About synchronization, one i've never seen is tabs, being able to open any tabs on one device to another. Maybe the clipboard could also be useful to share link/text to another device...

For my own use RAM management shouldn't be a thing, i want all my apps to either stay loaded or just crash completely.

Labour theory of value puts value on goods for the sole purpose of trading and explaining trades. Both LTV and STV does.

Marx's use of LVT is to criticize how Capitalism leads to exploitation. But although the specifics differ SVT could still be used to raise the same critiques.

Its usefulness never made me disappointed despite this drawback.

I'm a physicist at heart, which might explains it... To me the use in philosophy is just as important, especially in philosophy of science and metaphysics.

Simply put I couldn't imagine studying how reality works without ever wandering what it is and how to best study it.

In which language do you use them like „this” and not "this"?

Dialectic can never be a science, you can't apply the same methodology. Even when it's material.

However it is philosophy, and if your searching for some material reality then it's ontology.

Science too is a product of ontology, it's a methodology created for this exact purpose and wich can be studied in this field.

Saying physical properties are social abstractions sounds to me like social constructivism, which is epistemology, again philosophy.

Social sciences can be soft science precisely when they are not dialectic and rely on the methodology of science.

And to be clear, soft science is just a science that is based on a hard science, in which we don't have enough work done to explain every emergent properties using fundamental properties of matter.

Psychoanalysis is an outdated philosophical theory, so indeed just a scam now.
