When it comes to self-medicating, the method of delivery may come into play ... in two ways: How is the "medication" obtained. Is it bought legally over-the-counter or bought illegally in a "back alley" from a non-licensed seller (drug dealer) How is the "medication" administered. Is it smoked? -

First off, there is a difference between restarting and powering off. After closing NWS by either exiting or using Task Manager to force a close, than power down the PC or device. Next start NWS after giving the PC sufficient time to finish starting up. If the identify yourself message doesn't come up than you are authenticated with the server hosting your congregation's data. Speaker sharing is a totally different animal and since we don't use it, I can't help you. -
It sounds like a local thing. I have never had a volume problem in any of the meetings I have tied into. It all sounds good (unless the brothers forget to turn on the sound altogether).

13. Why should we abstain from the nonmedical use of addictive or mind-altering substances? • “Present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, a sacred service with your power of reason. And stop being molded by this system of things, but be transformed by making your mind over, so that you may prove to yourselves the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”—Rom. 12:1, 2. This from od book, questions for baptism candidates. You can (it’s a personal decision) use addictive or mind-altering substances within medical use. If you decide to do it the smart thing is taking them under strict supervision from a medical professional. I agree with Brandon that we could get guidance why (not) such substance shouldn’t be used as selfmedication. -

I tried it again 9 hours later and it did the same thing. In fact it was still running trying to connect to Congregation Speaker Sharing. It never shut down like it normally does. -
We have had a similar experience over here in the UK, when needing to use zoom for our meeting. I found that it was possible to improve it somewhat by resetting the sound settings on my computer. Not being a great 'techie', I asked for suggestions, and then applied the guidance given. I have found that it varies at different halls, too. We have zoomed into other halls for funeral talks, and found quite a variation in the sound quality.

Luckily I didnt know of this remedy ... 😁😉 It seems to really help tho

I need help figuring out why sound going out to zoom is low coming from the mics. The songs and videos played through the JW Library app are nice and loud but the microphones are low while sound good at the Hall.

OK I figured this out. The original password created by the secretary worked to get him in. I probably missed it but I never remember it being called a congregation shared password. My bad. So in NWS we have a password, ID and PIN. -
If I stop eating to much chocolate, then I won’t see skinny beings with big heads, big eyes, with small ears, skinny bodies with long arms and legs, with hands that 3 fingers. Or I dreaming to much. Let’s hope I’m dreaming to much so I can gulp down on chocolate.

We have a brother that was just trying to upload a doc to our Announcements. Firstr he kept getting an error message that he did not have the correct tokens. Now he is getting a popup to enter the "congregation sharing password." I nor our secretary has ever created a sharing password. I had him try our congregation PIN but that did not work. On Sunday he is going to try uninstalling and reinstalling NWS to see if that works. We’re hoping it will ask for the normal congregation PIN and not a password that doesn’t exist.

Same. -
Happened to me also but it only asked me once. That was because I was assigned administrative privileges and I was on my Surface Pro and on the same network as the administrator that assigned it. So, when I came home and opened NWS on my PC it asked me to identify myself while next to the PC the Surface Pro was fine. Entered the Sharing Password and from then on no more asking for identifying.

I think it will become increasingly complicated with our Bible studies, as many prefer alternative / DIY health treatments. Some will say they have an anxiety disorder but don’t trust hospitals, and therefore “self medicate” with marijuana. In the past it was easy to remind them how it was illegal to buy it and we need to respect Caesar’s laws, however it is now fully legal in my country at federal and provincial levels, so I can no longer defer to “Caesar has said no,” and therefore it all becomes very gray rather than black and white… I think being done under tight medical controls is significantly less risky, though not with none. it’s all complex and getting moreso everyday. I don’t have the answers. -

To follow this up, halloween is when black cats are often mostly harmed, the hardcore belief that they are bad luck is the reason of this and the adoption thing. Also the rumor that black cats are witches and have roots to witchcraft and other evil shenenagins back in the day also doesnt help. Growing up my mom would let me have a cat but i was never allowed to have a fully black cat. She didnt trust cats and was super superstitious. I love my little black void

https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&docid=502013210&par=4&srcid=share it establishes the organization’s normal framework for medical decisions that are not directly forbidden in Scripture. https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&docid=1102012490&par=1&srcid=share emphasizes informed consent, patient autonomy, and personal medical decisions. https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&docid=1101989223&par=1&srcid=share Old reference but the clearest reference on drugs generally. It explains that the Bible condemns drug use for intoxication, escapism, or loss of self-control. Other references point out: warns that misuse can become spiritually and physically dangerous. applies Bible principles to marijuana and other intoxicating substances Good to know, so we can understand others decisions, that can look and feel like a scriptural weakness

Post in 1975 End of World ?
jwhess posted a post in a topic,
Modern references to creative days:
*** w15 6/1 p. 5 How Science Affects Your Life ***
The Bible fixes no duration for the six creative “days.” Instead, it opens the door for modern scientists to study them and assign accurate time spans to them. We know that the creative “days” were much longer than 24-hour days.
*** g21 No. 3 p. 12 What the Bible Tells Us ***
So each of the six creative “days” during which God prepared the earth for life and created life on it could represent extremely long periods of time.
*** g 1/14 p. 12 Creation ***
WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS God created the universe, including the earth, in the indefinite past—“in the beginning,” as Genesis 1:1 says. Modern science agrees that the universe had a beginning. A recent scientific model suggests it to be almost 14 billion years old.
*** lc pp. 26 Science and the Genesis Account ***
A careful consideration of the Genesis account reveals that events starting during one “day” continued into one or more of the following “days.”

I was just talking to a brother whose son is in video services in the US. They are reducing staff and even discussing downsizing Ramapo - because they are able to use AI for so much of the artwork and videos.· 3 replies
He was telling me that what used to take weeks is now taking days and with only a few people instead of a large staff. More and more are getting sent back into the field. They are even able reduce the number of people needed for acting out scenes. That is a lot of donated funds saved and more workers for the field. It won't surprise me if we see an update soon describing all the ways the GB has approved for AI usage.
I know they will always have humans to review, edit and approve the final product; but most of our pictures and videos will be at least partially if not fully AI generated.
