  1. Past hour
  2. Today
  3. 1. Some of the "artistes" leave the truth or are no longer in good standing, so their vocals are updated or visuals edited. 2. Also for legal reasons: those who are no longer part if the congregation (disfellowshipped or disassociated), may ask that their content be removed.
  4. We already have 154,000 followers. I believe that between this week and next we will surpass one million followers, as soon as it is announced in the nearly 120,000 congregations around the world.
  5. I'm going to say that is an imposter. Look how many "s" are in the handle. Incorrectly spelled, but so easy to overlook.
  6. I am confused. Why is there another one with only 71 followers but same handle(jw_pressroom)? 🧐
  7. Since January of this year, I’ve mostly been listening to the same 12 to 16 most recent songs for no apparent reason. Today, I decided to listen to the whole playlist and discovered something strange: some of them have been updated. Not the lyrics, but the artists and the overall "oomph" have changed (gotten better, btw). Has anyone else noticed this? If so, does anyone know why?
  8. The instructions just came out in the June Announcements. The CBS conductor has a lot of preparation for the study. I cut and pasted the instructions into the book to remind me what to do.
  9. Online https://www.jw.org/en/library/videos/#en/mediaitems/StudioMonthlyPrograms/pub-jwb-138_1_VIDEO
  10. Greetings from Carlton congregation in Melbourne CBD. And Yes we love our coffee in Melbourne and of course our Vegemite, made in Melbourne.
  11. I remember the oil crisis in the 70s. Long lines at the gas stations, odd/even days, 55 mph speed limit, what a mess... 1970s Oil Crisis: 8 Ways Americans Felt the Pinch | HISTORY https://share.google/RzC2hgqkuWSw97Ng6
  12. I've had a few on order since they told us about them. Ours here in California haven't come in yet. Note: the ones in prison can't download electronic copies. They have to be paper. I imagine we'll soon have instructions on how the meeting will be conducted while using this as part of the congregation Bible study.
  13. I just filled up this morning at Costco ... $5.995 a gallon. Well that's $6, eh. Craziness
  14. I told the elder by email who forgot he ordered new books for me what I learnt from here, that there was new books. He got his wife to text me and offer to bring a couple today, she was nearby on the carts, but I wanted 3. She's bringing them after the meeting in a couple of days. I don't get to meetings, I am a full-time carer and do zoom. But I wouldn't have known about it if I hadn't found out here
  15. Can you post some of your work or give a link to it. I would be curious to read it That league sounds fun, good to get people involved
  16. I noticed same however according to DownDetector there have been IG problems the last 24hrs - as I have had too - so possibly could that be the reason? Guess we will have to wait and see. 🤔😊
  17. It is the Gilead Graduation. It is posted on the servers and so should be on JW.ORG soon. URL code is 138.
  18. Programmers may be very talented to make programs do what they want. Some of them are quite brilliant. But these programmers are still imperfect, like all other human beings. So can we expect their creations to be any better? Congratulations on your first post, @Trese! You may have been around here with us for a year and a half already, but you finally said something to us! Welcome to JWTalk!
  19. A new song is unlikely in a Gilead graduation, unless a few of them get together to sing one in The Inside Story. But we haven't had one like that for quite some time. However we'll probably get a picture postcard from somewhere.
  20. I just did what you suggested an it was no problem for me. When I had the problem I tried a bunch of stuff and nothing seemed to make a difference. I think it had something to do with the sharing server because a day later everything worked just fine for no apparent reason. My suggestion is to just deal with the the best you can. I think it will clear up on its own. Yes its frustrating but just start repeating the fruitage of the spirit, one of them being patience.
  21. And will there be a new song and greetings from the brothers of some congregation in some interesting place?
  22. So, it seems that our wait is not in vain. Since the annual meeting they’ve been a bit busy with printing and gradually distributing the nine new tracts. And just in time Jehovah’s table is once again being richly supplied for all of his servants. For me, there’s something I really like about the tactile experience of having a copy in hand. 🙏

    • 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.
