Apparently my current shtick is that I talk about knives at great length. Also motorcycles.
- Comment on When is it okay to drop out of college? 11 months ago:
Experience is still leverageable and in certain fields is king. A significant portion of my job is IT and also web devlopment. I make a decent living. I dropped out of college after one semester and never looked back – a decision I regret less and less with every passing year.

Looks like the hosting is free, although they run ads on whatever site you show. But renting the domain name isn’t. Presumably they also keep the revenue from the ads.

Is this FoxIt? What the hell, FoxIt used to be cool.
Anyway, if all you need is a .pdf reader and don’t need any editing or form fill BS, just uninstall all your .pdf readers because they’re totally redundant these days. Firefox and all other browsers can natively read .pdf’s. If you need to mess with the content of a .pdf, Inkscape (open source) does a competent job of taking them apart and letting you edit them nowadays.
I’m of the opinion that bloated memory hog .pdf applications full of subscriptions and ads and other bullshit can just die in a fire. I haven’t actually needed one for years.
