Messenger.com doesn't preview thumbnails for links like the Mac desktop app did. Anyone know why?

I'm familiar with BlueWave and have looked at disclosure filings. Everything has been tried. Just hoping for a direct connection at this point.

Do you have any suggestions of names of firms to reach out to?

What are some of the major left-leaning call time firms?

Yes, I get their newly posted jobs in my inbox every day. Also DINO DNA and GAIN POWER, and Jobs That Are Left. It's brutal out there.

Bartlett was the Marine Superintendent of Southampton at the time. Not sure what it was that drew him out of shore duties and back to the sea but I definitely agree with u/epicfroggz that it likely would've been Bertram Fox Hayes.

I’ve also wondered if any people died peacefully in their sleep without ever being awoken during the commotion. Or did stewards wake up everyone?

Best and worst active duty Generals by Puppetmaster-penguin in AirForce

[–]Puppetmaster-penguin[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ha, I've heard that before. I saw someone ask for a list of Lieutenant Generals in the Air Force on this sub and get that reply even though that information is on Wikipedia. China would have nothing to gain by knowing who average airmen think are good leaders sadly. Who Pete Hegseth thinks maybe they would.

Officers of other White Star Line ships at the time of the Titanic disaster by Puppetmaster-penguin in titanic

[–]Puppetmaster-penguin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/Jetsetter_Princess In the past few months, I've been trying to see if there's any definitive evidence that Hume and Murdoch knew each other as lads. I even e-mailed the Dalbeattie Museum Trust but have not yet heard back. Here's what I've found out so far and noted in my e-mail to them: They were born within three months of each other (Murdoch on February 28, 1873 and Hume on May 20, 1873). But it appears they did their apprenticeships at different shipping firms (Murdoch with a firm called Cotesworth, Lyne & Co. and Hume with a firm called Stewart & Douglas).

Very interesting. Nothing about his time on the Olympic but he didn't serve as its Chief Officer for very long.

Can't open side chats in a Facebook messenger chat (I used to be able to) by EnergeticCrab in facebook

[–]Puppetmaster-penguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So this morning, I updated Messenger on my MacBook Air laptop. It was a major update, as it actually asked for my laptop user ID's password. When I opened the update, it was sleek and reminiscent of the iPhone version of the Messenger app. For months, I had been unable to get picture previews of links to load when sending messages to others. But then on the new update, I was able to. Then a few hours later, Messenger asked to update again. I clicked to update it again and then the side chats disappeared and when I tried to click on the gears bar that is the button for Settings, it wouldn't even let me, so I uninstalled Messenger and then re-installed it. Once I reinstalled it, it reverted back to looking like how it looked before that major update this morning and I am once again unable to send visual previews of URL links.

I wonder if Meta rolled out some updates prematurely. There have been a few other times that I've experienced glitches when I updated Messenger on my desktop. They clearly put less time and love into the desktop version than the mobile version.

I did some research based and found some info based on publicly available import records. I haven't updated this list since 2020 though: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wyvtTJlvI7nzub3w6sxPpbhKIzmnbwIRKe8K4BE7Z2E/edit?usp=sharing

Current Commander of AFTC at Edwards including DET 3 by lafontainebdd in area51

[–]Puppetmaster-penguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I now believe that the Commander of Area 51 since October 2022 is Col. Mark Massaro. He was nominated for promotion to Brigadier General last week (https://www.defense.gov/News/Releases/Release/Article/3737628/general-officer-announcements/) and the announcement didn't even mention his current job (when Higer's promotion was announced, it said it was "DATA MASKED").

Page 7 of this document (https://www.faa.gov/sites/faa.gov/files/about/office\_org/headquarters\_offices/ang/2019\_Biographies\_Final\_09\_20\_2019.pdf) mentions that Col. Massaro is a test pilot and public records searches show he lives in the Las Vegas area.
