We didn’t start the fire… it was always burning, since the world’s been turning. 🎵 I was born before the September 11 attacks, but I am too young to remember that event specifically. (Can you believe that nowadays, more than 100 million Americans have no memory on 9/11?) I think the earliest that I can say for certain, would be the 2016 United States presidential election. I was in university, and we were in a computer room, and everyone went crazy over the live result. And mind you, this was from the complete opposite side of the earth!

See you here! 👋 https://events.jw.org/en/ad657851-a87f-44e3-ba86-753330eb616d/welcome

Does anyone have a problem launching the latest WTLib 2604? Can't get it to work on Windows 10 as it just silently exists on the PC.

It seems there isn't a copy of the iam song 186 at jw.org: https://www.jw.org/finder?srcid=share&docid=1011214&wtlocale=E&category=KingdomMelodies https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&docid=1101984206&srcid=share I might still have the original Piano Accompaniment of the Sing Praises (Ssb). I could send that specific MP3 to you if the circumstances permit.

Your OS likely already comes with an antivirus pre-installed — Windows Defender. For standard home use, that is generally all you need.

The “RSS” button has been removed for some time now. I gather they are planning to depreciate it, but not sure. JW.ORG - What’s New https://www.jw.org/en/whats-new/rss/WhatsNewWebArticles/feed.xml JW.ORG Newsroom https://www.jw.org/en/news/jw/rss/NewsSubsectionRSSFeed/feed.xml There is no official RSS feed xml directly for new videos releases afaik. You need to use something else that a brother made on his own — like the one linked above.

Another important factor is your Android version. In specific, at the current time, JW Library is supported only on devices running Android 7.0 or later, iOS 15.0 or later, or Windows 10 1903 or later. [The number can change as the time progress.] *** Frequently Asked Questions—JW Library (Android) *** JW Library is compatible with devices that run one of the following operating systems: Android 7.0 or later https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&docid=802013202&srcid=share A quick Google search seems to imply that Redmi 2 does not support Android 7.0. Its latest is either 4.4 KitKat or 5.1 Lolipop. If that is the case, JW Library will not run correctly.

We had a case of yeartext being released earlier than this. The 2022 GB Update #6 was released on August 28, 2022 — and it contained the yeartext for 2023. That does not make it a rule, of course — considering in 2023 and 2024, the yeartext was not announced through GB Update. However, it is something to think about. https://www.jw.org/finder?srcid=share&wtlocale=E&lank=docid-702022018_1_VIDEO

The S-287 Cybersecurity Guidelines is the latest guidelines on this topic. We do not have any specific recommendation such as mandating requiring specific special characters or combination of different casings. Actually, some cybersecurity experts argue against setting such recommendations—The primary goal of a more secure password system is password diversity. Enforcing specific laws help hackers to guess the passwords more easily. For example, this is what Microsoft writes in their Password Policy Recommendations: “Password complexity requirements reduce key space and cause users to act in predictable ways, doing more harm than good. . . . Some complexity requirements even prevent users from using secure and memorable passwords, and force them into coming up with less secure and less memorable passwords.” [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/misc/password-policy-recommendations] Every one has an experience making a password that goes like “Jw19141914!” just because it said “you need at least one special character in your password.”

I loved A Silent Voice 聲の形 a lot. It's been a bit too long time since I've seen the film, however. So I don't remember this particular character well. But I can indeed say the film depicts some of the dark and grim parts of East Asian / Japanese society, such as school bullying, and so forth. Also, the main character (Shouko) was really well written. I liked her a lot. And the story is too much sad for her.

This has been announced a while back for us. The Korea Branch will be managing the former Hong Kong Branch area, as seen in the following jw.org “Contact Us” page: https://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/contact/hong-kong/ Edit: I have found the congregation announcement. I have translated it with DeepL and will share it here since it’s related.

The 2014 “Study Guide for God’s Word” (sgd) brochure is a publication specifically designed for language fields where the 2013 New World Translation is currently not finished in full. For example, publishers in Japan used this until 2019 when the revised Bible came out that year. This publication is not really needed in English, because all the information of this book are already included in the 2013 New World Translation. *** nwtsty A4 The Divine Name in the Hebrew Scriptures *** https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&docid=1001070204&srctype=wol&srcid=share You can share the links from the above 2013 NWT and share this instead, as this is the one most people are using. You likely downloaded the publication long time ago when it was available. — A similar publication to this is 2014 “An Introduction to God’s Word.” (igw) This publication is not available in English likewise, but all the content of the book is already publicly accessible via 2013 NWT.

The brothers do not publish what was changed except for very small portions of books. We used to do it more in earlier times when paper book was more convenient, so we can mark or cut the papers of the book from when it was changed. (Good times.) Many times, the brothers in this web site will be glad to let you know what was changed. It is easy to compare with computer programs if we already had previous publication downloaded. But the society does not actively let us know what has changed.

That's interesting that you posted this exactly the 10 years after the incident. The MH370 went missing exactly 10 years ago, on March 8, 2014. It's crazy to think how in this digital age, a jumbo sized commercial airplane housing tons of tracking devices, machineries, making communications with the surface, can just go missing off the radar without a trace.

The Library of Babel contains every piece of literature that has ever been, and ever will be. It also includes your very own post and my own (search through the search tab)!
