That's not "sad", that's the voice of experience.
It's exactly what I do if I find myself on a machine that doesn't have a proper email client installed.
[Edit] It's also what I recommended to a buddy of mine who somehow kept "accidentally" finding the Back button's keyboard shortcut when composing a long email in a browser.

It'll be a long time still before I move away from a proper email client app running locally and I start writing email in a browser, for anything more than a one-line reply.
I'm pretty sure I posted the exact same message somewhere 10+ years ago.

So, I'll have IE up - maybe 4 or 5 tabs (something going on in the background iow), I'll be 90% done with an email in the web app, and bammm - IE has stopped responding. There goes my email.
Since you know this is going to happen, why not compose your email in Notepad, then copy/paste it into IE and click Send?

The point of this post was to rage (and wonder if anyone else has "internet explorer stopped working" issues with possibly ad blocker. Not work around it  
Anyway, I'll file another support request to see if I can get desktop outlook working again.

I use IE (8.0.7601.17514) to a very successfully add-free view of most everything I need to see on a day to day basis.
My take on advertisement flashes and video (censored (you got that right teatote)) is that the first idiots onboard any new version of a programming paradigm that ups their ability to blind users landing on their site is a paradigm they want to deploy immediately.
Not kidding.
Now a cat ... but, hey.

Have you tried blocking ads with your hosts file? It works for all browsers with no extra software installed.

nah, the point is not that I'm blocking or not blocking ads. The point is that IE should NOT be going tits up with public apis. we're assuming that its the ad blocker.

You can't just go ahead and bath a guinea pig. You need to perform some tests on the heat of the water...using some Guniea pigs.

It does rather better if you put a hyphen in 'Guinea-pig' (although the first thing it does is to remove it, go figure!) but I can't help feeling that this is a classic GIGO, especially given that it makes no claim to be AI anyway. It is rather a computer in the most literal sense of the word. Perhaps it should simply say ....[^]

It seems that the main thing is that you use enough liquid.
You should probably go for the cheapest liquid you can find on short notice. You need 2540 m^3 of it if you do it today, and the trend seems to be increasing rapidly.
Water is probably OK, hydrofluoric acid will probably strain your budget; anyway, with that amount, the actual cleaning effectiveness of the liquid used (or the bathing technique, for that matter) should not matter in the least.
Remember that it is important to properly clean your guinea pig between experiments, otherwise your results will not be scientifically valid.

The cynical irony of it is that Apple's iCrap is constantly grabbing personal information about the poor users they care so much about. Suddenly they're concerned?
Now - if this can be done in a one-off manner, I would definitely side with the FBI. Whilst Apple's argument that the phone's security would be compromised, forever, soon after, should they cooperate, they know full well that's it's already being worked on (very possibly already succeeded) all over the world. Good hackers never tell.
So - back to the point: should they relent? Again, if I recall correctly, the ten-try limit, which is what really makes the security, was an anti-theft, making a stolen iPhone worthless to the thief. If that's what they're really protecting - then I side with the FBI.
The question, however, is one I struggled with: should I take a part in delaying the inevitable? The matter, the ability to enrich uranium with a CO2 laser had serious implications (to say the least). It worked on a table-top in. I, however, found the equivalent, morally, of that hacker to release my conscience.

Sounds like a plausible conspiracy to me!

No, more like ordinary business.
The FBI would want it's own backdoor, and Cook simply takes the chance to get some good PR from it.
There will not have been a drastic change in how they view the user at Apple; backdoors have been added for the NSA without the user knowing, so regardless of what the man says - we know it may be very different from what he does.

“Apple’s current refusal to comply with the court’s orders, despite the technical feasibility of doing so, instead appears to be based on its concern for its business model and public brand marketing strategy,” the Justice Department's motion alleges. ..and as the article states, the phone has been opened often enough before - the sudden change of heart is not convincing.
