Powerful ❤️ thank you.

It wouldn't surprise me if our film production wins awards such as NRB Media Awards, The Telly Awards and so forth. The Photo Drama of Creation came out 13 years before The Jazz Singer. But, the Jazz Singer is credited with being the first "talkie". It's only a technological distinction. Photo Drama used synchronized sound and color moving pictures, whereas Jazz Singer used audio printed directly on the film. However, Photo Drama was the first to use color, it was 8 hours long and viewed by 9,000,000 people; an astronomical number for the era.

While on the Zoom Chat we came up with a Suno song while having fun with the AI. Here is the result: https://suno.com/s/TiZO2s0dSQmtUJVe

give me the food waste to end my food bill....like half my pay check.

Been watching a storm chaser down in Plymouth Mass. all day. My goodness! It’s gonna take forever to dig out. Here in the U P of Michigan it seems like we’ve been under weather advisory’s or storm warnings or even blizzard warnings all winter. The advisory ran its course for today. now for tomorrow we’re already under a winter storm warning. UGH! I am boycotting winter. I won’t be seen till August. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Are there any brothers from Mexico here? I would like information about our brothers.

Ps 139:5 is Jehovah's hug

Tuesday, February 24 Let your way of life be free of the love of money.—Heb. 13:5. We will be motivated to reject materialism if we have strong faith that the end of the present system of things is imminent. People will, in effect, “throw their silver into the streets” because they will realize that “neither their silver nor their gold will be able to save them in the day of Jehovah’s fury.” (Ezek. 7:19) Rather than focus on accumulating as much money as we can, we need to make decisions that help us to live simple yet balanced lives. That includes resisting the temptation to take on unnecessary debt or to get bogged down caring for many material things. We will also carefully avoid becoming overly attached to the possessions we already have. (Matt. 6:19, 24) Our faith may be tested with regard to material things and other matters as we wait for the end of this system to come. w24.09 11 ¶13-14

A captain notices a light in the distance, on a collision course with his ship. He turns on his signal lamp and sends, "change your course, 10 degrees west." The light signals back, "change yours, 10 degrees east." The captain gets a little annoyed. He signals, "I'm a US Captain. You must change your course, sir. "The light signals back, "I'm a Seaman First Class. You must change your course, sir." Now the captain is mad. He signals, "I'm an aircraft carrier. I'm not changing my course." The light signals back a final message:

My wife just got grumpy at me. She said I yawned six times when she was talking to me just before. They were actually just six attempts to speak.

Those songs are amazing

Oh wow. It’s true that we usually depict Paul as bald like that. So you think that’s the brother who will play / is already playing Paul in the new series? Do you think that they would’ve already started filming those scenes two years ago? And then hide them in plain sight at the 2024 convention? if so, I’d love to know what that scene is about. If you watch carefully, Paul is preaching to a dark skinned man, and everybody in the background is also a dark skinned. Is it supposed to be the good news entering Africa? As far as I can recall, of all the accounts in the Greek scriptures, I only remember us depicting the Ethiopian eunuch as being dark skinned previously so this could shine a light on new historical background research they’ve done in preparation for the new series on Acts…

If Belarus left the list of 240 there should be 239 instead of 241 What two new lands started to report openly ?

My brother, the concepts you present sound very good, but (honestly) it all looks like it's AI generated. Keeping it simple will help the rest of us understand (and accept) more readily ;-)

It was interesting to see that Len Nimoy's Jewish background came into play in identifying the sign for 'live long and prosper'. It was the Hebrew 'S' for El Shaddai - The Almighty God. still have ST films over here from time to time.

From the many responses to this topic, I've noticed that there are numerous versioning issues with NWS and NWP. Especially when schema changes occur on NWS, it's possible that the NWP clients aren't yet on the current version. This can lead to major compatibility issues, such as those reported here. I've solved these versioning issues with Baruch. The environment is updated using versioned messages, ensuring continued compatibility. I've explained how I implemented this in this post. Perhaps it would be a good idea for the NWS developers to implement this same principle as well. It prevents a lot of problems.

Yes, it is very helpful in producing a song. The free very limits the preferences and styles, but it still offers a very good choice for voice and musical options. I based one on the wording of 'All Things Bright and Beautiful'. It seems ok, but only my wife has heard it.

Thanks, Jarred. I'm not familiar with that song but your cover sounds good. If you like to write songs with the help of AI, visit this thread

Thanks, David. Sharing songs like this is why this thread is here. Great idea for a song and it sounds really good.

Short-Term Memory Song https://suno.com/s/oOJjgPwGCPd7nP7k Gotta Get There Quick!

I have been using Suno AI to make songs. It is quite an impressive tool. I am using the "Free" version. The "Paid" version is much more impressive from some of the videos I have watched ... but the free one has been working for me You can enter something very simple in their "Prompt" box under the "Simple" button, or you can get quite detailed under the "Custom" button. It can be as simple as "Song about buying a new suit" and it will write, the words, select a style, create the music and supply the singing voice. You can be a little more descriptive in the "Simple" more like "Song about renewing my car registration" and then describing a music style like "Irish folk song with male voice" As for the style, you can get even more descriptive like "Southern Country meets Be-Bop and Texas Swing" and it will give you a mixture of those. Of course, you can get more descriptive as you acquaint yourself with the way Suno writes descriptions. With the "Custom" tab, you can enter your own lyrics and use up to 1,000 characters to describe the music style. You can even combine the process by entering a simple prompt and then edit the results in the Custom boxes. Thought I'd start with a few I have done: https://suno.com/s/3L7hdbjiOruq5dHl https://suno.com/s/c8t1kF58kIliYcuP https://suno.com/s/cvuRdOjj3MNdaEXJ https://suno.com/s/s63UjYsnI0ezZ2hI https://suno.com/s/jaJorjb7m2DTAyXc Please feel free to upload links to AI songs you may have created. Please do NOT post links to songs you have not created. One of the songs I have above is a JW themed song. If you have some JW themed songs, that's fine. But please do not try to turn this thread into an alternate source for JW Songs since we have an ample supply at jw.org. Having JW themed and secular themed songs are both acceptable as submissions to this thread. This thread is to have fun with AI - not to criticize the use of AI. Please do not post negative AI comments in this thread as they will be removed. I'm looking forward to what others have done or can do with AI music creation ...

Webb Telescope Locates Former Star That Exploded as Supernova Monday, 23 February 2026 10am Release ID: 2026-112 Webb shows star was surrounded by a vast shell of carbon-rich dust. What types of stars explode as supernovas? Usually, we have to try to answer that question after the fact. Astronomers will study the composition and amount of gas expelled in the explosion to gain clues about the former star. But on rare occasions, astronomers are able to identify the specific star that exploded in pre-supernova images of the same region of the sky. For the first time, astronomers have used images from the James Webb Space Telescope to identify a supernova progenitor that could not be seen by any other telescope: a red supergiant that was located in a nearby galaxy. The supergiant’s surroundings were surprisingly dusty – dusty enough to render it invisible to the Hubble Space Telescope.

Panels at right show a detailed view of a red supergiant star before and after it exploded. Before exploding, it is not visible to Hubble, only to Webb. Hubble shows the glowing aftermath.
