  1. Past hour
  2. Let’s hope this peace deal gets signed https://news.sky.com/story/iran-israel-latest-trump-lebanon-hezbollah-netanyahu-strike-attack-live-13509565
  3. Today
  4. Thanks, Jeremy. I wasn't able to find it but maybe someone will be able to point me to it. I would like to have a dismiss button next to warnings. My About Me section permanently has a red exclamation sign. Either a brother hasn't connected in several weeks, or someone is lacking a phone number or there is an unassigned local needs talk. Notifications are very useful, but when the red sign is constantly there you no longer pay any attention.
  5. I was expecting that too, Brother John, as well as Br. Sanderson’s talk, which presented Jehovah’s protection at Armageddon as some sort of novelty, even though we were all convinced of it. I was hoping for a study that delves into the precise moment, during the Great Tribulation, when that protection would be fully and completely effective. Well, I think we can start mourning; it seems we’ll have to settle for the spoken talks, because new ones are in the works. The AM 2026 is just three and a half months away... Time is flying by.
  6. Update growing like “weeds”. Rows are freshly tilled and weeded/weed free. Irrigation system in place P.S. how do you like that fancy “gate”😝😝😝😝🥴
  7. I think its weird in general, but on par with the behavior and history of current administration. No topic to far fetched, unhinged or misinformed to not use in tactics to distract.
  8. There is another NWP Update today (#15) I haven't had any problems with NWP lately so I don't know what this latest update is for. Has anyone seen any changes after updating?
  9. Yes, I have three screens on my PC and my TV that mirrors my main screen when I am using Zoom to attend the meeting at home. However, I do not use a second screen for my JWL. I usually use it on my left-hand monitor while I use Zoom on the main or the second screen. Since I am not conducting a meeting with the JWL tied to Zoom, I have not experienced the issues some seem to have. I do not quite have the entire library loaded on my HDD but do have a considerable portion of it, including most of the videos. Like @jwhess I do wish the library inventory loaded faster but it is workable. I seldom have my JWL crash and it plays video just fine.
  10. As I read this section, I realized that I almost never have any of the problems mentioned. The only thing that annoys me is the length of time it takes to open a section of the "Library" when I am searching for a boo or tract. I realize that my Windows PC has 50 GB of data stored from the JWL and it has to arrange them and sort them and so on. But I wish it was quicker. I gather that all f the other problems seem to relate to how individuals (and congregations) use the app. They describe using three screens with a mixture of Zoom and other apps, and so on. I don't. So maybe the problems multiply when the level of complexity grows.
  11. Br. Losch's "Temple" talk still isn't one of the study articles (through October)...sigh....
  12. I didn't watch the whole video so please decide to watch or don't watch at your own discretion. Basically, the US congress I'd gaining more traction to reveal whatever UFO/alien retrieval information or programs they have. I wonder what that means? If they show people evidence of these crafts or even "non human biologic", is it just all faked? It is so weird the government is doing this 🧐
  13. Hmmmm... You mean shorter study articles with short videos for discussion? 🤔
  14. There's a setting for that, which can be turned off. I think it's under "Congregation Sharing" at the bottom (going from memory...I'm not home right now).
  15. I have experienced several different bugs over the years, not necessarily all at once. They often eventually get resolved with updates. To mention a few: It crashes and closes. This one I still experience. It will freeze up for several seconds and then just close. The dark mode gets confused, where half of the screen will be dark and the other light. When I close and restart it goes back to how it should. When playing either audio or video, it will play very slowly for the first 4 seconds and then just stop playing. These are just some off the top of my head that I currently experience. Often closing and restarting the app fixes it. But there have been others over the years that have been resolved.
  16. It's a security measure that actually becomes an annoyance. The developers consider you should change the password after some time. And they keep reminding it to you. Personally I have been ignoring this warning and have no intention to change the password because it would imply going through the whole process with each and every brother authorized to use the program and I have more important things to do. While updating passwords periodically is a good safety practice, I don't see the point in NW Schedule. What's the danger, some former elder trying to break in? Besides, the password itself doesn't give you access to anything. They need the congregation ID and PIN, then to have their email in the list of accepted brothers, then they need to have permissions to be able to see or change anything. The warning is good but there should be an option to dismiss it. I guess it will disappear with time if I keep ignoring it.
  17. I thought I could paste images here directly but I guess not. Why is NWS telling me "Congregation Sharing Password needs updating"?
  18. I have never experienced any bugs. Perhaps some things don't work like I want them to but it's not a bug. Please explain.
  19. We have all the study articles up until the end of the year. If I wanted to stir things up, I would say its because a change is coming in 2027. But I don't, so I won't say it. 😃

    • 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.”

      Sniff, THE turtle has turned himself into Prince Charming. Somehow the mutation has gone horribly wrong.

      My work is delayed for a week. 
      My UPS that power my entire workstation catastrophically failed, and I’ve never been scared in my life seeing it emitting lots of smoke and loud sparks. 
       
      This scares me because I was originally planning to go out of town this weekend. If I had gone, my place could have burned down. Thankfully, I decided not to leave town this weekend.

      I think someone somewhere said they knew someone that makes notebooks for conventions/assemblies. I would love to support them and get a notebook for the upcoming regional. A friend of mine gave me a spare she was given for the assembly and it helped me enjoy the assembly a bit better because i had no use for my phone so i wasn't just fiddling around (I can write faster than i can type, within the first sentence i have no idea what is being said and i get lost when im typing notes)

      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!
