  1. Yep up. At Costco here premium was $6.459 That's up $.45 in just 2 weeks
  2. It looks like the "Do You Remember" came earlier in the mag: https://www.jw.org/finder?srcid=jwlshare&wtlocale=E&prefer=lang&docid=2026687&par=6
  3. Agreed. All politics other than the Kingdom is going to lead people the wrong direction. It isn't just a right thing or a left thing. Phil 4:8 reminds us where to focus:
  4. The moderators felt this topic is just best closed. Humans will name what they want and in the New World we can find out what stays and what Jehovah has us rename and when. We know He has named all the stars. I wonder what He has named ours. He likely has planet names too. We all have a lot learn.
  5. I went into setting, found the app was still there and deleted in settings. That should stomp it out!
  6. I tried it and only wanted it on the lock screen. It randomly takes over the other screens. I uninstalled it and it still is there and takes over all the other screens. How do I get rid of it?
  7. "Earnestly seeking" ... So, it is a continuous process. The reward isn't to the one who found him (past tense), but to those "seeking" and how? Earnestly. Jesus encouraged us to do that during the sermon on the Mount when he said "keep on then seeking" first the Kingdom. May we never give up seeking and eventually we'll be rewarded.
  8. https://www.jw.org/en/whats-new/ There it is ... https://www.jw.org/en/library/videos/#en/mediaitems/StudioMonthlyPrograms/pub-jwb-141_1_VIDEO
  9. $5.99 at Costco today and seeing renewed fighting in the strait... It isn't going down soon. I have a funny/ ironic quote for you: https://krmg.com/2026/09/05/trump-keeps-heralding-an-economic-boom-but-even-a-solid-jobs-report-is-causing-problems-for-him/?hl=en-US I couldn't agree more! One year ago diesel was $3.71. Now it is $5.88. That just feels stupid.
  10. I recognize that AI is impossible to be wrong, but I also have noticed it is how and what questions are asked. https://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.php?id=107&t=3 From Gemini (much less waste): Sorry. I must have said transmission, but I meant just heat transference/ loss.
  11. Not sure how this became the solar topic, but I am happy for the distraction from the crazy. Did you know, it takes 3 times the power generation at a plant to feed a home than solar right at it. This is because on average of 2/3 of the power going out is lost due to heat transference between the plant and the house. Actually, generating power right at your home is quite the saver - way better than large fields of solar that will also loose 2/3.
  12. I have been using CoPilot at work, but it's not connected to the Internet. It just had a database from a year ago. Personally, I am using Gemini.
  13. We love you Tim! Empathy is not my strong emotion, but you moved me too. This system stinks and watching our loved ones suffer takes it out of us. I hope your wife finds good help. That constant search is hard too. May Jehovah give you both the strength you need and the peace of God that protects your heart and mind (Phil 4:6-9).
  14. Who is Conner Leahy? Connor Leahy is a German-American artificial intelligence researcher, entrepreneur, and prominent advocate for AI safety and alignment. So, he's a guy that makes money off of encouraging people to make sure AI is controlled? So, he's always worried because he makes money encouraging other people to be worried? And we should listen to him so we can pay him more money? This seems circular to me....
  15. So, how do we do that? Paragraph 10 contii: He might fall into serious sin and later feel that everything occurred “suddenly.” Or he might say, “It just happened.” And yet, if he thinks about what actually occurred, he will likely discover that he took some unwise steps that led to his transgression. Those steps might have involved bad association, unwholesome entertainment, or frequenting questionable places—whether in person or online. Perhaps he had also stopped praying, reading the Bible, attending meetings, or sharing in the ministry. Like the young man discussed in Proverbs, he may not have committed the sin so “suddenly” after all. We could start by asking. How is my daily Bible reading?
  16. I just finished spoke one of the Infinity Engines. It's called The Anachronist by Andrew Hastie. I ordered book 2
  17. Without saying you have to get an A-2 ... They are almost sounding that way. It is already being rolled out by the various LDCs in the US. Talk with your LDC contact person. They should have already scheduled training for the KHOC people. PS It is a great way for the branch to see what type of work is being done at various halls and if the maintenance is being done. This is especially important now that the branch pays the bill.
  18. The branch is rolling out software to schedule KHOC assignments. It is being done through JW Hub Project Tasks.
  19. Funny my wife and I were just having this discussion. We left it at ... All we know for sure is what Jehovah had recorded for us at Rev 7:3 saying: “Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, until after we have sealed the slaves of our God in their foreheads.” When they full number is sealed it will end after that.

  21. As anticipated it's back up... It was $5.95 for me today for premium
  22. The text says, " it is important that we train ourselves to see the difference between truth and falsehood and to be obedient to the truth." How do we train ourselves to see the difference? I see many, even my brothers and sisters who are fooled by various conspiracy theories and policies. There must be a way to do "train ourselves" if it is important. Note what Romans 6:17 states (it is shown right after that statement in the text for today): :17 But thanks to God that although you were once the slaves of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that pattern of teaching to which you were handed over. So, there is a "pattern of teaching". This is what we have to look for. What is the "pattern" of truth. Does what we are reading fit into the pattern of teaching from the slave? Are we meditating on the principles and methods of logical reasoning the slave is using? It is important!
  23. Yep, that is the all scriptures inspired book (SI). That's an oldie but a goodie.
  24. One of my favorite books (especially because of this chart). Adam would have been dead 126 years by the time Noah was born. And assuming by "ice age" you mean something other than the floor itself, that would have to have been before both Noah and Adam.
