  1. Past hour
  2. Today
  3. This is what I used to outline the territory too.
  4. The jwpubs.org has published a new article about ensuring people are following the official JW Pressroom account. I decided to write it because when people search online, it’s important to make sure the information that appears in search results is accurate. Right now, I think it’s full of misleading or apostate content. The organization might update the website to show the social media, we will see. Still, having third-party articles showing in the search results that provide accurate information is always better than showing the ones that spread false information. Just a reminder to everyone that all our comments in this topic are being logged and used by Google Search AI.
  5. I get the confusion though because the first thing you said was related to NWS Mobile. Therefore I thought he screenshot was from NWS Mobile. It was not obvious to me that the screenshot was from NWP.
  6. There seem to be some accounts impersonating the JW Pressroom account. If possible, we can all help by reporting those fake accounts to Instagram as “pretending to be someone else” and linking the report to the official account. Instagram is more likely to take action if many people report the impersonating accounts.
  7. There’s seems to be a confusion for non tech saavy users ( thanks @Jim Jam and @bvr for pointing this out) Follow (if you want) only accounts with handle jw.pressroom (with a dot) not jw_pressroom jw.pressroom.official Do you have doubts? There should be a blue checkmark If you see any apostate content or pictures it means you look at fake copycat accounts.
  8. He can like and follow any account he wants - whether official or unofficial. He doesn’t mention any unscriptural account so if he encourages to like or comment, that’s his prerogative.
  9. My brother-in-law was involved in the Carbon-14 dating system, and used it across a range of materials including dating the 'round table' said to relate to Arthur of Camelot. My brother-in-law confirmed that the accuracy of this method was good for just a relatively short period of time. No doubt why other methods are used now, but even these cannot guarantee accuracy, as you pointed out Joel.
  10. On JW.ORG there’s a section Medical information for Clinicians We were not instructed to use it, it’s not intended for the general public. Does that mean we cannot read it or share it?
  11. Molten and mixed "rocky" matter that solidifies doesnt have the age of the volcanic explosion itself seems to me. When science is certain in whats not certain it doesnt invalidate everything. Some sample types are inherently difficult because of the way they came to be. Other dating isotopes differ in accuracy also. Different clocks, different speeds, diferrent accuracy. A stopwatch differs from a sundial but they both can have their usefullness. At least for a portion (13k year) of the epoch for which carbon dating works there is calibration (to correct for atmospheric variances in carbon %) by counting and analyzing treerings.
  12. 90k followers now... And the communication isn't worldwide yet
  13. When you are in view mode only you will not be able to see what is in the drop down box, which means what selective refresh areas are available.
  14. Thanks. I am in View Only mode so I can't do any of that but I shared the information with the Secretary and he will do it. It's hard for me to poke around and figure out what he needs to do because I can't access all of the information. Thanks for the help.
  15. I just had to do this for territories because lots of data was missing like territories that showed in NWS as not completed but were not showing up in the NWP. Go the App section (the icon that looks like phone) on the right side under App Administration select Refresh Selected App Data and from the drop down box select what data you want to refresh. Then after initiating this you get a bunch of warnings do you really want to do this and click yes. It will put the data in the Send App Data box. Go to that box and you will see all the entries of the data that will be resent. Click send. In my case all the missing territory data reappeared.
  16. I get what you are saying but you didn't follow my reaasoning. I know it has nothing to do with Mobile and it is obvious that this screenshot is from NWP. NO pins were changed!!! Out of the blue this error message appeared on an iPhone and it is the first. What you suggested of disconnecting and reconnecting should fix it, but why did this happen in the first place when nothing but updates were happening? Add to that the previous loading error which only could be solved by deleting the local data. So something is not quiet correct in the updates and feature roll out. Now the Mobile feature addition. As long as you stay in the Windows world things are sort of stable in that OS. Now you add the iOS and Android OS to that. It is my understanding that to make these 3 OSs work the encryption had to be changed which in turn effected the decryption. Going by the past record of the major updates, it easier for me to believe that this introduced an error because what else could could have caused it when nothing else was changed? Here is the verification for what I assumed: Yes. In version 8.1, NW Scheduler upgraded its End-to-End (E2E) encryption algorithms across NWS Desktop, NWS Mobile, and the NWP app to Argon2id + AES-GCM with AAD More likely for me to believe that this is where problem lies.
  17. Unfortunately, if I were to choose to, I have direct access to apostates through this IG account. I don't pretend to understand how these things work, (I don't use social media much) but the link is still there to the apostate post. 🤷🏻‍♂️
  18. NYNews tonight featured Marilyn's early days around here and "The art of Mono-tasking." I'm a fan, but need to practice less multi-tasking. UMMM, starting tomorrow.

    • 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.”

      Is jw_pressroom on IG legit? Friends I know are liking a post on and following it. There is nothing officially on our Press Room page nor is it in our News page or a headline about it. I’m treating as junk but does anyone have details?

      It's time for me to take a break from JWTalk for just a bit. We have our Regional Convention starting tomorrow! For those of us confined to watching the convention on a screen (rather than in person), at least they give us a choice of watching the recorded version from the US, or the live streamed version of our own convention (with the local brothers doing the parts). Because of the convention, I likely won't have time to peek in here at all.
       
      So, enjoy the weekend everyone!

      Carlos, I don’t think that is correct. I read a lengthy post on this forum from a brother who stated that he was one of the developers. It would be great if the devs would identify themselves in the forum.

      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.
       
      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.
