  1. Book 31of 2026.

    Pretty not bad, but you won't really learn anything at all.

    I listened to this one on audible.

  2. Look what I just put on my car!! I'm old enough to remember when a library card catalog was my datacenter...

  3. I didn't mean to spend the morning reading instead of crunching my numbers, but argh I made the mistake of picking up Bitter Medicine again.

    Now the numbers. For real... I got all six done, and only one is off. Let's hope I can fix it.

  4. Not many literature audiobooks that are sufficiently enthralling in 30 second walk-bys.

    But Niall Williams' Faha books, "The History of the Rain", "This Is Happiness" and "Time of the Child" have this property for me.

  5. Update: I've shuffled over to Smart Audiobook Player for the moment, it seems to do what I want (mostly allowing me to set a sleep timer for the book).

    In progress: liberating my Audible library via Libation (a free open source app that is removing the DRM from my purchased books so I can import them to SAP.

    libro.fm seems to be the best fit for once I want to start purchasing new audiobooks again.

  6. Been working on de-Amazon-ing... now I'm wondering what Audible alternatives there are.

    The library is out because I listen to books while I fall sleep and it can take me a month+ to actually get thru. Needs to be a format with like two month loan periods or somewhere I can get books for a reasonable price.

    I know Kobo sells audiobooks, but I wanna know what folks are using and where they're getting books.
