Productivity halted

Personal

The past days I've seen a surge in my productivity. At work I've been developing and bugfixing with the greatest of ease, while my personal Capsi.com project has seen major progress while hacking away at the pub (haven't uploaded anything though, most of the features are within the user accounts for which registration is not yet possible anyway).

But major progress is not going to happen today: the adapter of my laptop stopped working which means working on someone elses workstation. Sure, I can get certain things done. But definitely not as fast as I could have using my own desktop, interface settings, scripts, bookmarks, and so on. Reading e-mail through a webmail client is also nowhere as efficient as a proper desktop application, especially not when the hosting provider seems to have fewer clues about uptime and high availability than, for example, the boons at MySpace.

Next time I buy a new laptop I'll make sure to order a spare adapter in advance.. because honestly today has been hell so far.
