  3. I'm guessing from the comments that he must be looking old, frail and ready for his next assignment.
  4. Yesterday
  5. I think he ended up changing his plea to "insanity".
  6. Wednesday, July 2 O you who love Jehovah, hate what is bad. He is guarding the lives of his loyal ones; he rescues them from the hand of the wicked.—Ps. 97:10. We can take practical steps to minimize our exposure to the wrong thinking and ideas popular in Satan’s system. We can fill our mind with wholesome thoughts by reading and studying the Bible. Attending meetings and taking part in the ministry will also safeguard our thinking. Jehovah, in turn, promises that he will not let us be tempted beyond what we can bear. (1 Cor. 10:12, 13) Each of us needs to pray more than ever to remain faithful to Jehovah during these difficult last days. Jehovah wants us to ‘pour out our hearts before him’ in prayer. (Ps. 62:8) Praise Jehovah and thank him for all that he does. Ask him to help you to be courageous in the ministry. Beg him for help to deal with any problems and to resist any temptation that you may be facing. Do not let anything or anyone stop you from regularly praying to Jehovah. w23.05 7 ¶17-18
  7. If only snow fell down as ice cream. But icy poles are close. They just need flavouring and colouring.
  8. Unfortunately blocking JS doesn't work on many sites, in that while it gets you pass the paywall, it then depends on JS to load the content. An example is The Times UK
  9. This tells ChatGPT your “ground rules.” You can even copy and paste that every time you start a new conversation! 4. Ask One Question at a Time Keep things simple. Some examples: “Can you summarize Watchtower Study Article 8 from April 2024?” “What scriptures support the idea of Jehovah as a loving Father?” “Help me explain 2 Corinthians 4:16 to someone struggling with illness.” 5. Use It With Caution and Prayer ChatGPT is smart—but not inspired. It can sometimes make mistakes, especially with spiritual topics if not carefully guided. Before using any answer: Compare it with JW.org Use your discernment Pray for insight (James 1:5) 💡 Bonus Tips Don’t treat ChatGPT like it knows everything. It doesn’t! But it’s excellent at helping you organize your thoughts. It can’t read your mind—be specific. You can ask it to rewrite things in simpler words, make outlines, or give suggestions for field service topics. 📌 One Final Reminder As 1 Thessalonians 5:21 says: “Make sure of all things; hold fast to what is fine.” That includes anything ChatGPT gives you. 😊 Thanks for the lovely advice my brother!!!!
  10. I use it as well, and like our sister stated, you have to have those true spiritual boundaries. Now, sis how do you program it?
  11. I'm pretty sure it was a cassette tape we had, or maybe vinyl. I put on a "show" with the kids from my then cong and they learned some singing from this (1980s, English). I think we played this in the background of their voices. It was Bethelites and very professional sounding. I am in a Walkill cong, now and will ask around.
  12. I'm a little late, but... BTCI - Collected a nice $730 dividend CONY - Collected a nice $1600 dividend, but sold my shares at a $601 loss. So....working great so far! MSTY - Just bought some today at around $21.42 per share. I'll need to sell it on 7/3 to lock in my dividend and keep this party going! As of right now, all lights are green. As long as nothing crazy happens between now and 7/3, I should be good!!
  13. I just got a $10 gift certificate to Best Buy.  What should I buy for $10 or less?  🤔

      Not sure if you're serious or not, but for that price about the only thing I can find are some USB cables, screen wipes or face masks.

       

      I'm serious.  I bought some USB sticks last time.  Looking for a new idea.  Trying not to fall into the trap of buying more just cuz I have a free certificate.  There's nothing I really want/need.  The first certificate I got, I spent on a bug bite zapper from Best Buy, which was one of the best purchases I ever made (cuz mosquitos love me).  So looking for another potential cheap thing that might turn out to be super useful.

  14. I would like to see the image or the link, if you can send it to me by email I would appreciate it.
  15. Brother Andrey, The first possibility that came to mind was German. When I thought about countries known for strong instrumental and choral traditions, I immediately thought of our brothers and sisters in Austria or Germany. Of course, that’s just my guess, based on the stereotypes I had as someone living in the Far East 30 years ago with no internet. I hope no one is offended by that—I’m definitely not a music expert! I also remembered another song that was included: No. 104, “The Heavens Declare God’s Glory” (from the 1966 songbook). It was performed as a mixed choir. I recall that the lyrics began with the word for “Jehovah” in that language. I don’t know which language it was—I only recognized that they were mentioning Jehovah at the very start. If the first word of the German Singt und spielt dabei Jehova in euren Herzen version of No. 104 is “Jehova,” then German seems very likely. Other possible languages might be Finnish, Swedish, or Danish. I don’t really know German pronunciation well, but sometimes I get a vague impression that something might be German. I definitely can’t identify the specific features of Finnish, Swedish, or Danish. I tried listening to No. 105 in Sing to Jehovah in those languages recently, but I couldn’t really tell them apart. https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/d/r1/lp-e/1102009196 https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dsync/r1/lp-e/r16/lp-fi/1102009196 https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/dsync/r1/lp-e/r14/lp-z/1102009196 I’d like to try to gather all these details and make another summary soon. Anyway, thank you so much for taking an interest in this.
  16. I just tested it and it worked fine for me. I save my backup to Google drive so that whatever device I'm on I can just pull the latest backup down and sync up where I was at
  17. Question: I have used the app on my android phone. I have now downloaded it (from Google play) to my new android tablet. Have someone tried to download the backup from phone to tablet? Will that work? File name: backup etc .biblept (so I don't have to start from scratch) My phone is on Android 13. My tablet is on Android 15, and since it is brand new, I would like to make sure all goes well. Anyone tried this, and it went well (or not)?
  18. Ok yes I missed this. I definitely don't have anything from that long ago. No prob! Hope you find what you're looking for!
  19. Brother Jeremy, I'm sorry, but that's not quite right. It's probably a recording of choral and instrumental arrangements based on Singing and Accompanying Yourselves with Music in Your Hearts (1966). For more details, please check my first post. Thanks for showing interest!

      Hi Br. Jeremy, I just signed up for Worldcoin. I was so flustered when I first sign up, I didn't set my password. 2 days later, still haven't done it. I think my plunge into crypto aren't going to go far. Will message you later.

      The startup uses orbs to scan people’s eyes in exchange for a digital ID and possibly some cryptocurrency, depending on what country they live in.

      Hello everyone,
       
      Just an update on the projects for jwpubs.org and its related features that I’ve been working on for the past two years.
       
      I only have a few remaining active projects left, while other projects are now paused. This means the website and all its content will move into maintenance mode—no new features will be added, but there will be ongoing improvements and adjustments to existing features.
       
      I now have another major project coming up: my personal website. My personal website has been in maintenance mode since 2023, and it’s finally time for a major makeover. This project is expected to last several months, based on my initial review of the scope and the results I want to achieve.
       
      Once that’s done, I may return to jwpubs.org or move on to something else. But don’t worry—jwpubs.org will remain online. It’s under my ownership until 2031.
       
      Thank you all for your support.
