I had a relapse. It has been one of those weeks, I needed to get some things done and I wanted to automate some parts of my work process and Linux demanded too much work. The environment, which usually empowers me, was more bitter than sweet. I found myself back on MacOS using Automator, doing in about ten clicks what it would have taken me an hour to do in Linux. Design deadlines and client specific requirements have me using proprietary software again…Sigh. Shouldn’t I feel bad? I don’t, instead of having to use a buggy beta or find work around to missing features; however there is a nagging feeling I the back of my mind because that isn’t always the case (When it comes to office software open office works just as good as Msoffice), but for the most part things just work. In time I am sure I will return to Linux but right now I am browsing with safari.
