Start a conversation with the Mods in Confidential if you need an explanation, but generally they like to get to know new members first. Just keep participating....

Elon musk just said in 6 years there will be no apps on phones; will just be AI.

Thanks. I did Refresh and it didn't change. I have the latest update as of today...

Our cleaning schedule is still bugged. I tried clearing every week and starting fresh. After I had a blank schedule I sent the app data. It showed empty, nothing in NWP so I thought that was a good sign. However, I reentered from this week through the middle of October, about 20 weeks I think. Now it still only shows 2 weeks - June 22 and September 7. I tried the refresh app data and other things with no success. I am going to submit a ticket next week because I don't know any other tricks to try at our end.

The Person PINs have not been removed. Both the heading and the PIN are still there (at least for now). If the PINS are missing, you probably just need to "Refresh" Persons App Data. They have been adding more features to NWS Mobile. I'm finding myself using it more and more. Let's see how long this post takes to get approved and you can actually see it. My last post took 20 hours to get approved. Does anyone know if needing to have each post approved is removed after a certain period of time or a certain number of posts? I feel like by the time it's posted, the forum had more posts on other things (in this case 8 so far), and the person/people I'm trying to help don't see my suggestions which are way back up the thread!

Thanks. I saw the message about the Publishers section being removed and then the message disappeared. The Personal PIN field is still there, but it's blank, so apparently they aren't sending the data but haven't changed the form. I had NWS Mobile for awhile but it wasn't intuitive or useful, so I disconnected and deleted it.

It's been removed. There was a message a few NWP versions back in that section that mentioned they'd be taking the Publishers area completely out. I'm guessing they never added the PIN info back as it was before. The message mentioned to use NWS Mobile instead for that feature. Looks like they're trying to encourage the use of NWS Mobile for any admin type function.

I just noticed that the Person PIN for each Publisher is not visible in NWP. When I go to NWP>Me>Publishers>Name>Spiritual Information it would show the persons Personal PIN, but now the field is blank. Is anyone else having the same problem? BTW: The Publishers page is only available to appointed servants if enabled by the NWP administrator, so not everyone has it.

Maybe it will be like during the pandemic. We had to have a government app on our device and show proof of vax to gain entry to various places. The government may compel citizens to have an app in order to "buy and sell" and carry out their daily lives.

The speed of light in a vacuum is approx 186,00 miles per second, c (universal constant).

NFL football, mostly, but also NBA if I'm in the mood. Went to a fun Super Bowl party this past February.

There's a few on Instagram. One is time4yourdreamtour and they offer trips all over the world.

Wednesday, May 20 For all things I have the strength through the one who gives me power.—Phil. 4:13. We will be able to endure any trial, great or small, if we remember that Jehovah is alive and that he is there to sustain us. After all, he is the Almighty, and he can give us the power to endure. We have every reason, therefore, to face our trials with confidence. Our experiencing Jehovah’s support during smaller trials convinces us that he will also help us during greater trials. Consider two personal experiences that increased King David’s confidence in Jehovah. When David was a young shepherd, a bear and a lion each carried off one of his father’s sheep. On both occasions, David courageously chased after the animals and saved the sheep. Yet, he did not claim the victory for himself. He knew that Jehovah was behind it. (1 Sam. 17:34-37) By meditating on those experiences, David gained confidence that the living God would strengthen him in the future. w24.06 21 ¶5-6

Closer in Your Love. [Verse 1]: You gave us each other, a gift from above, A friendship surrounded by kindness and love. Through quiet reflections and soft-spoken prayer, We learn to be gentle, to listen, to care. When one heart is weary, the other stays near, With comfort and warmth that can quiet all fear. With You at the center, our hands intertwine, And day after day, You make our love shine. [Pre-Chorus]: When life becomes busy and moments move fast, You help us protect what is meant to still last. We pause and remember this treasure we hold: A friendship more precious than silver or gold. [Chorus]: Your love is the light that still softens the night, Your care is the warmth that keeps hope burning bright. With faith growing deeper in all that we do, Our hearts stay together while walking with You. No storm can diminish the love that You guide; With tenderness, faith, and Your peace by our side. [Verse 2]: We learn how to listen when feelings are small, To notice the tears that may never yet fall. Through patient affection and words spoken mild, Love softens the spirit and quiets the wild. We pray for each other; we walk hand in hand, Still learning to cherish, to trust, understand. And even in trials our friendship can grow, For love becomes deeper through all that we know. [Pre-Chorus]: When burdens arise and our strength feels unsure, You teach us that kindness helps love to endure. We stay close together and gently remain, Choosing compassion again and again. [Chorus]: Your love is the light that still softens the night, Your care is the warmth that keeps hope burning bright. With faith growing deeper in all that we do, Our hearts stay together while walking with You. No storm can diminish the love that You guide; With tenderness, faith, and Your peace by our side. [Verse 3]: The years may bring changes we never foresaw, Yet love keeps embracing each weakness and flaw. When one heart feels fragile, the other gives rest; In patient devotion we still give our best. We choose every morning to cherish this bond, To look at each other with love growing fond. And holding You closely through all that may be, We guard this dear friendship so tenderly. [Pre-Chorus]: So help us keep growing in mercy and grace, Reflecting Your kindness in every embrace. May our words bring healing, our hearts stay sincere, As we walk side by side year after year. [Chorus]: Your love is the light that still softens the night, Your care is the warmth that keeps hope burning bright. With faith growing deeper in all that we do, Our hearts stay together while walking with You. No storm can diminish the love that You guide; With tenderness, faith, and Your peace by our side. [Bridge]: When tears fill the silence, help love stay near, To answer with kindness, to listen, to hear. Teach us to forgive as You lovingly do, And keep drawing our hearts ever closer to You. For friendship grows stronger when held with such care, And love keeps its beauty when You remain there. [Final Chorus]: Your love is the flame of Jah, so gentle yet strong, The place where two hearts learn that they still belong. With faith as our anchor and hope as our song, Together with You we keep moving along. Through tenderness, patience, and all that You give, You teach us each day how to love and to live. Forever we’ll treasure this gift from above— A friendship protected by faith, care, and love. Closer in Your Love.mp3

Yeah, I read an article on that before it was implemented. That has probably caused many people to lose their jobs, because many grocery retail workers' sole job is to change tags.

There are some grocery stores that are utilizing digital price tags. Basically so they instantly change the price when needed.

NW are really bad at communication. I’ve been a translator for years, and they rarely inform translators about what is added, removed, or changed in the apps. I was manually checking if there was any new text for the NWP app when I got a message saying the file was in the owner’s trash. I contacted them, but they haven’t replied yet. Later I noticed a note on the website saying: “Note: NWS Desktop, NWS Mobile and NW Publisher app translation files are now all combined below.” It would be appreciated if translators were informed about changes like this beforehand. There is no changelog, no clear communication about updates, and no information on whether changes affect translations. At least now we know that all apps are combined into one translation document, which is good. But informing translators in advance would have made the transition much smoother. Sending a short email is not exactly a huge task, especially since they already have our contact information.

I don't want to say much anymore because I don't want what I say to incite the friends to go down a rabbit hole, though my conclusion is based on facts, not conspiracy theories. We’ll just have to wait and see how it plays out.

This is my son's story, happened a couple years ago. Us three neighbors are in neighbor #1's driveway. Holding drinks and chewing the phat. Neighbor #1 sneezes, top dentures goes flying out of his mouth, and lands on the ground and eventually slides under one of his cars. Neighbors #1, #2, & #3 watch the entire scenario happen. Neighbor #2 stopped in mid sentence saying "Dude! Was that your TEETH!?" Neighbor #3 starts busting up laughing. Neighbor #1 now under the car, on all fours reaching under it, trying to grab his teeth. Neighbor #1 is putting teeth back in his mouth. Neighbor #1 says, "There's a chip in one of them. That's gonna be an expensive fix." Neighbor #3 is still rollin' on the driveway!

This is encouraging

I hope that brother Elijah has found success in reversing his illness. It would be nice if there were some feedback, as before he left JWTalk, he seemed to have a good attitude about taking the time to research and understand the causes and making plans to change habits, lifestyle and mindset to reverse the illness so that he could better serve Jehovah. I'm glad there's a growing wealth of well documented experiments and case reports/studies now that prove what modalities of treatments actually work and the common hypotheses about metabolic physiology to be wrong.

I have seen date sugar..and organic date chocolate chips.

If you eat chocolate at a sanitarium, you have chocolate with nuts...

Yes. I also changed one of the dates, synced, changed it back and synced again. I still have what you see. It doesn't seem to be a problem, the cleaning assignment shows up on the meeting schedule correctly. If anyone else is missing cleaning assignment data, it may be at the bottom of the list.
