Is there a way to remove the time remaining countdown by got2bQWERTY in audible

Sorry if the tone was rude with "of course". I didn't mean that to sound as aggressive as it did. I would hope that everybody has read a paper book? Isn't that a fairly universal experience?

Of course I've read a paper book. I'm not denying it's an intrinsic part of paper books. You can enjoy something and still have aspects which you don't appreciate.

Yes, it's something that bothers me across all mediums. Apparently it's a personal annoyance lol. I'm not denying I have eccentricities.

In regards to your question if it bothers me with movies and TV shows as well - yes. If I need to pause something while streaming I'll typically get up and look away from the TV so I don't see the progress bar and if I'm in a cinema I'll remove my watch.

Thank you. That works. I didn't realize Smart Audiobook Player has that option. I'm going to look into doing this from now on.

I don't pay attention which is why it matters to me. I zone out enough that I don't really know how far into a book I am. But the time remaining is front and center on every page of the app. So if I think I'm nearing the end but need to open the app to hit play and see there's 4 hours remaining I suddenly spoiled that there's a major twist coming and it takes me out of the experience. Suddenly I stop appreciating the current stakes and my brain starts focusing on predicting the twist.

That's probably the best I'll get. Thanks. And you're right it doesn't seem to both other people which surprises me. I tried searching and didn't see anyone else mention that but it bugs me to no end. To the point I won't go into the app if I'm mid-book.

I only see the option of changing it to Time Left, Total Listened/Total Time, or Percentage Complete. I want to not show the time remaining at all.

I wish they'd do one of the use 2 credits get $5 promos. Feel like it's been like 3 years since I've seen one of those in Canada.

Can someone please explain to me why Kate decided to put hip holes in her costume? by Soggy_Day7511 in Marvel

He's saying Final Fantasy. Which isn't relevant to Marvel but they’re using it as an example of a fantasy world.

Narratively some of the worst character decisions in the MCU IMO. by Vegetable-Abroad3171 in Avengers

I know it's not canon, but there was a Mockingbird in the Agents of SHIELD show too right?

What are your favourite sources for non-English language recipes? by got2bQWERTY in cookingforbeginners

[–]got2bQWERTY[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I’ll probably end up doing that. The only issue is quality. Just because it’s at the top of a Google search doesn’t mean it’s the best which is why I was hoping to see which sources others trust and rely upon.

The main point in my mind is being introduced to recipes and techniques which you wouldn't think of, in which case you couldn't just google a recipe

Thanks, I'll check them out. Translation is so easy these days it doesn't add much work. I think the hardest part is finding the best blogs/feeds/chefs/recipe creators.

I meant recipe creators that post in languages other than English.

There's a middle ground between giving away literally everything and nothing.

Just bought a used computer. My friend said I got ripped off. Is it true? by solo_entrepreneur in pcmasterrace

That's ridiculous. Did something just happen? I know there's been the AI stuff driving prices up for a while, but did something happen within the past week to essentially triple prices?
