  1. Did you see the opening statement in this article on jw.org - People Losing Trust In Politicians—⁠What Does the Bible Say? "The year 2024 will see a record number of elections taking place around the world." I checked an article on time.com and Wikipedia Some 64 countries, representing almost 50% of the world's population will have elections this year. Notable enough for jw.org to post and article. Oops! I see this was mentioned earlier. Sorry for the repitition..
  2. Something that Zoom Hosts will find usable. From a good old pioneer partner of mine. Don't ask me where or how he figured this out, but I trust he won't post on our local Zoom users Whatsapp group if he did not know. Just got some info that may be of use to you all with Zoom too. With the latest update of JW Library to version 13, there are a number of improvements, one of which is greatly reduced CPU load for background. Another tip is that you can activate Display Media on 2nd Screen even if you only have 1 monitor. In Zoom you can then select that as the Share source, thereby eliminating having the side clutter and its automatically full screen. Additionally, you can use the onscreen Down arrow to move to the next image without stopping the share
  3. I noticed that, but thought it was because I cleaned my glasses for a change....
  4. This landed on my phone. I don't like to spread these things, but was wondering something about the image or thought behind this. I wonder if the image on the Awake was intended to depict the Capitol.
  5. My Windows version update. I did not check the version before the update, but is is now 11.6.1, which seems to be the same as the above mentioned new iOS version. My Android version is still 11.5.1. So here is what I see. If I try to change the language of the Teaching Toolbox, I see it says Search Languages (1003) But when I do the same on the Android, it says Search Languages (998) The update is probably the ability to display more language's characters. But, WOW, 1003 languages!! Only 18 behind the website..
  6. Is this new? Can't remember seeing it before. Noticed this on my Windows Laptop when I checked the colors. There is a Topics option at the end of the Color bar. Resulting in matches from other publications
  7. A doctor who is a witness (I happen to know him personally) was telling us that if you expose it to direct sunlight for as long as possible, it will also "clean" if effectively.
  8. A brother from our congregation here in Johannesburg has applied to attend.
  9. Apologies if someone has made mention of this. I did not read the whole Topic. Interesting article in the Awake 12/22 pp.7-9. Especially the heading Could it Come Back? https://wol.jw.org/en/wol/l/r1/lp-e?q=g05+12%2F22+pp.7-9

  11. I noticed something while updating our KH Laptop for the month's media. When I updated, the following videos was not yet available. July 15-21 - Intro to 2 Thessalonians (This one became available the next day) July 22-28 - Intro to 1 Timothy But what I've noticed is that if you click on the link in the actual workbook, and the video is not found (I imagine this would be true if there is no internet connection), it presented an opportunity to upload the media from another location. In our case, we don't have an internet connection at the KH, so I can download it on USB and then upload it to the JW Library app and it can be played as per normal. Previously, you' have to either play it external to the app or connect to the internet via Hotspot, which has it's own challenges. This has probably been mentioned elsewhere.
  12. I see there is an English and a Spanish congregation in Ridgecrest. We will no doubt see some news on jw.org, but do anyone know some of our friends there?
  13. The one thing the Bible doesn't mention is that Jesus is also THE superhero. Proof: Think back a couple of Cong Bible Studies (Chapter 69). They wanted to throw Jesus with rocks in the temple. He moved so fast, the illustration shows them looking in a direction when he was already behind a pillar on the other side.
