Blame Wikipedia.
According to the article, the character was created in 33, but the rights to it were sold (and his first appearance was) in 38.

You believe anything posted to wikipedia?!?
That's even worse!
Hand in your Firefly T-shirt, too!

You can take the T-shirt, but you can't take the sky from me.

Firefly quote? I don't remember that one...
I really have to find an excuse to re-watch it all.

Near the beginning of the first episode, AIRI, but it was a running gag -- and I might not have got the wording precisely right.

I have been observing this hitch in the ratio of 1:7 emails. What happens is when the send button is clicked, a quick popup near right says 'Could not send message'. When you click that popup, the compose box opens little elevated. In this scenario neither can you send the email nor you can save a draft of it. Attempting to save a draft gives the message that item does not exist.
The only way to escape this whirlpool is to discard and confirm your intent to discard the message.,
Looks like it is something like Trappable Error in Classic ASP where the only fix was to restart the IIS or the web server computer itself. Some patterns that seem to be contributing to this error are like inline images in email.
Looking at the quality of the application, I really doubt if Microsoft has cared to test the application or is in a mad rush to compete with its rivals.
How many of you have experienced this issue?

So which part of this is deadly and catastrophic?
|
|
|
|
|
It is significant error because the primary objective of sending email is not met. We use Outlook.com primarily to send email and that purpose is defeated right in the Compose page itself, which is unacceptable.

Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

So now to make your argument you've moved from "deadly catastrophic error" to "significant error".
Don't think I haven't noticed.

Microsoft 
Ah, I see you have the machine that goes ping. This is my favorite. You see we lease it back from the company we sold it to and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

So maybe you should complain to Microsoft.
|
|
|

I have raised this issue in Microsoft Answers but not sure if we can escalate this. It should be considered as a showstopper issue. The primary objective of the page is getting defeated.

He givveth with one hand: Now any Windows 10 user can complain to Microsoft using the Feedback Hub | PCWorld 
..and taketh away with the other: "The company has released its Feedback Hub to all Windows 10 users [from the Windows Store]"

I haven't seen it happen.
Slogans aren't solutions.

Nor have I.
But then, I wouldn't touch Outlook.com with a ten foot cattle prod.
I use Live Mail instead.

So, say there was a biological upgrade available to you now which once fitted would allow you to recharge overnight by plugging yourself into the mains, not unlike all the other devices filling (plugging, if you will...) your sockets at the moment.
Once fitted, you would never again eat anything or have the appetite to do so, your body fat would be controlled perfectly. You blood sugar would be perfectly regulated (no 'food moods') and the risk of diabetes practically mitigated. Never would you have to go through the indignity of having to use a public lavatory. (Bowel movements would remain necessary but only one every 3-4 months). All beverages can be consumed as usual.
Recharge every night, one week battery life in the extreme.
Yours for say... 699 of those American dollars. You want one?

Hmmm, don't know. Would one still be able to drink?

Well of course, I wouldn't have mentioned it if it had that caveat.

In which case, it sounds like a grand idea providing that we don't have to start flashing up annoying messages when we get down to 15% charge.

Depends. How long does a full charge take? And what can I do while it is charging? Are the batteries replaceable?

6-8 hours. It's best to sleep through it all, no sockets required it's wireless charging which also has the handy side effect of acting as an electric blanket. Slight 50Hz hum can be heard, or 60Hz if on a Mickey Mouse 110v system.
