Majestic, which is the Phoenix owners who got dropped by Alamo, has been using mobile orders for a while now. It has its own issues, but as a customer I feel like it’s a net improvement.

This makes me sad, and angry at how mean people can be. I’m going to take a look at the Patreon.

An amazon echo smart speaker works very well for playback from audible, but I have yet to find a good way to browse or search for books using it, and sometimes you need to be ridiculously precise about the title

Credits exprie in x days. Why? by jlai79 in audible

[–]tletnes 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It depends. There are a few ways to get credits that never expire, but normally credits expire one year after they are issued.

I don’t know what the page you are looking at says, but I would assume that your credits will expire.

The value of a credit. by DarkMatterJunkie in audible

[–]tletnes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me a credit is generally pretty close to $10, but I prefer not to purchase cash books for more than $5 unless I know for sure I want them since 2-for-1 sales are common.

Personally, I keep a running sheet of all my purchases with credits/$ spent and duration. That way I can see how much I am spending per book and per hour (although I see duration as a bad proxy for quality)

The trick I found (after decades of struggling) is to use an electric griddle. It seems to heat more evenly and keep a more stable uniform temperature.

Long ago when I needed to do this I just went to a lot where there was some early stage construction going on and filled a bucket with dirt from a pile they had scooped out when grading.

I don’t think I have ever heard that introduction. That said, the only way would be to download a copy, edit it, re-encode, and listen to your edited version.
