• If you’re on Windows, Adobe Reader DC is tops to sign PDFs. Simply download and install the free app and open your file. In the app, at the bottom right, click Fill and Sign and follow the prompts.

We love Google Translate, but its results can be questionable, at best. DeepL Translate uses the power of AI to bridge the gap between you and any document or text block you'd like to translate. Try it for yourself; it's free to use, but the premium version offers much more.

Microsoft’s back at it with Flight Simulator 2024. In the 40th anniversary edition of the game (yes, it’s that old), you'll get new missions like firefighting, hot air ballooning and skydiving.
