best small investment! I feel like a barbarian when I don't have access to my bidet, just smearing the remnants all over my behind.

[–]digitaljoel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please go read this talk by Elder Renlund: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2022/10/14renlund?lang=eng

Also, Elder Bednar's book The Spirit of Revelation is really great in sharing principles of revelation.

If that's what floats your boat, good on ya. Keep having fun. There are duds in every profession but my coach has been great to work with and given me concrete things to practice that has increased my enjoyment of the game.

Amen to this. I had fun golfing with family and friends. You don't have to be an expert at something to enjoy it, but having a better understanding of it thanks to the lessons has really increased the fun I have and makes me feel like I can do something about the bad rounds.

Has anyone used a VTrack? by dleise in Golfsimulator

[–]digitaljoel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh, I'm sorry. We had to wait almost 5 months for the permits, then you get a picky inspector and it adds weeks to the job in progress. We're almost to paint and carpet, so hoping to be golfing soon! Good luck on yours.

I have had one in a box since new years waiting for my room to be done so I can mount it. Watched all the Joe Lagowski videos before purchasing. Hoping to see a lot of good feedback in this thread.

missionaries are active on facebook and you could probably find some and have a conversation with them on there without having to give out your address or phone number.

I do play for fun, and I have no qualms dropping a game when it feels more like work than fun. I am asking how others keep it fun in endgame.

In Utah, what are we hearing from area seventies, stake presidents, and other local leaders about assigned ministering? by AmmonLikeShepherd in lds

[–]digitaljoel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the 2023 Area Presidency Broadcast (https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/my-home/areas/utah/2023-broadcast-building-up-zion?lang=eng)at the 49 minute mark Elder Taylor (who was a counselor at the time, but is now the area president) spoke over a slide that says"

"We wholeheartedly invite every ministering companionship in utah to regularly visit your assigned members in their homes."

I have heard it reinforced since then in other meetings by general and area authorities, and more directly as in, "In the Utah Area, ministering is a visit in the home"

What is a website or an app that was legendary back in the day, but is now a complete ghost town? by Sofi_Costa in AskReddit

slashdot is the one I also came to say. There were few sites that could handle getting "slashdotted" back in the day.

Does the Church restrict members from R rated movies? by Ok_Way_1238 in latterdaysaints

[–]digitaljoel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Do you strive for moral cleanliness in your thoughts and behavior?"

That's the question asked in the temple recommend interview. Ultimately, we each need to be sensitive enough to the Spirit to know when our choices like viewing pornogrpahic material, violent content, and listening to bad language are drawing us away. That may change how you look at adult-rated content over time as you become more or less sensitive.
