ROKU should not have been endorsed by JW TV without checking to see if the product was reliable and would not cause damage. A quick google search revealed that there is a problem with the product.

Oh no.
I am picturing Jackson or Lett with magenta faces...and magenta hands flashing rings of magenta light.
And all the JWs watching those magenta faces.
OrphanCrow that is funny. But what about the many older ones who have purchased a ROKU for their older television sets to watch JW tv and having their TVs damaged?

Re: Roku4 has color phase error
Well unfortunately my latest tech support call yielded nothing new relative to the magenta color issue on the Roku 4's 4K output. They did acknowledge that they've received other calls for this same issue.

Apparently tech support has done nothing in terms of researching this, but will look at it now...at least according to the lady I was speaking with. Of course that's what I was told 2 weeks ago when I first called on this issue.
So it's looking more and more like I'll have to return the unit.http://cordcuttersnews.com/review-roku-4-our-first-look/

There is a color phase error on the Roku4 that shifts color to the magenta. This is particularly obvious with flesh tones. Several owners are reporting this issue.

"2-3 weeks ago Br Losch came to 'bid' on his 'room' which was specifically designed for him. You probably know this but they aren't really rooms, they are like goddamn apartments. With 2 bedrooms, 2 baths (I think?), a balcony, kitchen, an office and lounge area/living with a tv. Each gb member has one specifically designed for him. So, losch was given a lakeside view room. He rejected the room and said he wanted a fucking mountainside view, what a prick."
If this is true, it is very disturbing.

"With every good wish: Your Brothers The Governing Body"
Why would the Governing Body close such an important announcement with the phrase: "With every good wish"?
From Wiki regarding wishes:
Some cultures have customs in which people are encouraged to "make a wish", such as blowing out the candles on a birthday cake, seeing a shooting star at night, tossing a coin into a wishing well or fountain or breaking the wishbone of a cooked turkey. Many believe such wishes can only come true if they are kept a secret from other people. Others, on the other hand, believe that wishes come true only if they are told to someone else.[citation needed] Others view wish fulfillment as a bad faith self-delusion.

No 'Tight Pants' policy is now official - classed as 'disturbing'
by wizzstick inin short:- tight pants is no longer just a am3 hang up (or is that a hang up on the well hung?
)- brothers who have effeminate body language are flagged up- as are sisters with 'masculine' hair styles or dress- such dress is 'disturbing to the congregation'- the above must heed the (repeated) counsel from the elders...or they get stripped of the right to share on the ministry- however...this will not be revealed (announced) to the congregation.
wow.

Homosexuality is a sin. Governments may declare the practice of homosexuality legal. But is it legal (not a sin) in God's eyes? He says not. Those who do such things, are you hoping that God will remember you when you die and resurrect you?
Why take the chance? DO NOT practice it.

by Splash inthoughts triggered from a comment cappytan made on a different thread:.
cappytan the newest guy in the gang, mark sanderson, is no exception [to being a gb helper at some point].

Think about this. What if no one on the current Governing Body is anointed? No part of an overlapping generation.
What do you think would happen to the Christian Congregation?

Are The Governing Body Anointed?
by freemindfade infor any lurkers, i just want to put a thought out there for you.
like me maybe during your life as a jw the "thing" that causes someone to know if they are anointed was always a bit of mystery, except to those who claimed they knew.
i had heard it explained to me many ways, and like many things i just said "ok, well thats an answer... i guess".

Very good questions. This quote is from someone who is familiar with the Helpers on the Governing Body.
The current GB know they are faking it. They are faking their claim to be of the anointed. The previous members were not all fakers. Many honestly believed they were anointed and called by Christ as members of his body.
Such an honest belief brings with it an inner recognition of responsibility. But when it is faked no such responsibility exists. The current GB are simply enjoying the ride for the ride itself. Fakers to the core.
This is why they have spent the hard earned money of so many on a lakeside residence for themselves. They love themselves and believe that God will accept them because they have been selected to lead the Organization. They know lies were told in the past and it appears God did not object. So to them it seems reasonable that God will not object to whatever lies they may tell.
They bought into the idea that the Organization is everything and have given over their minds to it. They are thoroughly indoctrinated and unable to think beyond their own images and positions of power.
They are no longer able to reason. They are no longer able to think for themselves.
And why should "little kings" have to think? Do they not have advisers to think for them? Herd himself admitted that he spends much time, reading and reading what Writing has produced. The dumb cluck did not realize that what he was actually saying is that the GB is sterile and relies on Teaching and Writing to bring stuff in.
These guys would have fit better into the days when Knorr and Fred Franz were running things and the Board of Directors sat around waiting for them to make stuff happen. Today the GB is like those Board of Directors and the Helpers are the ones sitting in Knorr's and Franz' seats...writing, teaching, running things, making changes. The problem is most of them are incompetent.
The Watchtower leadership has received from God what they deserve: Confusion.
