  1. Today
  2. Never have I ever gambled on horse racing but my great-aunt Ruth lived in Arkansas and owned a thoroughbred farm. When I visited there at age 9, I was put in the saddle on the slowest pony in the western hemisphere.
  3. I didn't know you had it available for Windows. I'll try that next time.
  4. He did that, I can see the new schedule on NWP that he posted yesterday. However, his schedule does not show up on my NWS and it shows he hasn't used NWS in 7 days, but I know he was on it yesterday. He didn't have anyone else do it for him. Would it create that problem if he isn't closing the program correctly?
  5. This is very basic but, is he aware that he needs to send the data to NWP?
  6. Oh, I see, you're referring to jwlFusion App (for Android)... I would like to PM you to resolve this, but can't... Can you PM me to troubleshoot? You said you're on the latest v2.3.0. What Android version? The archives you are merging, what JW Library version made them? How large are they? Have you tried with other archives? How about just merging the same one with itself? Anything else that you can think of that could help me figure out what's going on? Eryk
  7. Our Service Overseer revised a Field Service schedule yesterday and posted it to NWP. He then revised it again and reposted, so I know he used NWS several times yesterday. However when I look at the Congregation Sharing information in NWS, it shows that he hasn't used NWS in a week. The Field Service schedule on NWS does not show his revisions. It appears he isn't syncing with NWS, is that correct? Is he doing something wrong?
  8. All of our shared brothers did a coordinated updated on Sunday from #1452 to #1455. We had 2 lingering stubborn issues that I couldn't resolve but they are fixed now. Everything is working smoothly! "Be joyful and rejoice with all your heart" (Zephaniah 3:14)
  9. It's around $6 per gallon here. Its a good thing my car doesn't run on coffee, its over $20 per gallon...🤣
  10. On Qapla's zoom, one discussion was about the name Portland for US cities. There are over 20 cities named Portland. I also heard on the news that POrtland, Ma Maine is the most 'walkable.' I remember driving to destinations in Portland, Maine, but never walking the city. Also on news today, in New York, people are wearing orange and blue for the Knoccks. Also, more mn - men coming out or sewers thru round man hole covers. HOope you are having a good day, wherever,
  11. "So many questions. What kind of writer am I if I have to fill a page with questions instead of answers? Shouldn't a story begin with certainty? Shouldn't a writer know where the road leads before taking the first step? But perhaps that is the problem. Maybe stories don't begin with answers at all. Maybe they begin with a restless thought that refuses to sit quietly. A small itch in the mind. A loose thread hanging from the sleeve of an ordinary day. Who was this man? Why was he staring at a blank page? Why did the silence in the room seem louder than the scratching clock on the wall? And why did it feel as though something — or someone — was waiting for him to write the first sentence? He tapped the pen against the paper. What if the story wasn't about a king, or a warrior, or a lost treasure? What if it was about a man trying to write a story? Had that been done before? Surely it had. But did that matter? The page remained empty. Or was it empty? The longer he stared, the less certain he became. There was something strange about the paper. Had that faint line been there a moment ago? Had someone written a word and erased it? Why did he suddenly feel as though he wasn't alone in the room? He leaned closer. There, barely visible. A single word. Not written in his handwriting. Not written by anyone he knew. Just one word. "Finally."
  12. This resolved itself after one of the brothers that hadn't used NWS for awhile updated a Field Service schedule. Strange.
  13. I liked the talk about Lot. He may have been older and he may have been afraid of raiding parties. We need to give people the benefit of the doubt when we don't understand their choices. 💜
  14. Maybe this is our campaign this September... My first reaction to it is maybe this is it! Lets just keep on the watch!
  15. No. I have v2.3.0 it is the latest version available on Google Play store for my Android device.
  16. I use a similar illustration for this text in talk 56: Whose Leadership Can You Trust?, along with this image. But I ask, what happens if dad suddenly let's go of baby's hands? He falls, because he needs God's guidance, help and support. In the same way man needs our heavenly father's guidance, help and support.
  17. I was beginning to think we may only read the next book in the new world LOL😝
  18. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink has warned that financing the trillions of dollars required to build AI data centers and necessary power grids will increasingly need to come from everyday Americans' savings and pension accounts. https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/stocks/articles/larry-fink-warns-americans-pensions-113500059.html All American citizens should have to pay it. That seems only fair.
  19. I paid something like $3.85 yesterday at Costco. Granted, it's Costco and they are always cheaper than nearly everyone else. Still, while gas prices shot up some, they are still somewhat reasonable. Somewhat.
  20. Hi, @Tortuga Are you sure you are on the latest version (v2.6.0)? Please check with the `-v` option. If not, try the latest from jwlFusion.

    • 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.”

      There were many JW artists I followed on Instagram, they created beautiful Christian illustrations. But for some reason many deleted their accounts out of the blue, no trace left.
       
      I don't know why and it makes me very sad

      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.
