Self-Scanning

Die Scan-Automaten bei Migros und Coop laufen ja nicht einfach so, ohne jeglichen Computer im Hintergrund. Der Computer ist zwar in den allermeisten Fällen nicht so offensichtlich präsent, sondern versteckt sich hinter einem schicken Touchscreen.

Manchmal jedoch, da kommt es vor, dass ebendieser Computer im Startvorgang hängen bleibt und man sieht, was da im Normalfall nur im Hintergrund abliefe, wenn alles in Ordnung wäre: Suse Linux, mit verschiedenen Scripts und auch mit (hier offenbar fehlgeschlagenen) Updates. Und dem Programm „WN_CD_Hack“, das auf der Zeile 4 angestossen wird:

Verbunden mit einem Smiley 🙂

In France & Germany, @commownfr #coop offers to rent those modular #laptop #computers rather than buy. They do the same with #fairphone.

So if you're not sure whether you'll need to upgrade completely, or if you need maintenance you're not feeling up to doing yourself, they're around to help. Also useful if you're starting a company with little funds for investment.

Given some of the changes that the current owner of the main public #cryptpad deployment seems to be doing I'm wondering about alternatives. I don't want to recommend #volunteer based #leftist #activist organizations deploy their own #infrastructure given the overhead.

Are there any #nonprofit or #coop groups that have offer cryptpad as a service? Is this something the larger organizing community might be interested in?

Inquiring #antifa #devops cats want to know.

Continued thread

We are building the supply chain and creating the market for the kind of work that I want to be able to buy. It has been quite a lot of work just to get some insulation and a heat pump installed. But with a lot of help from a lot of friends, we can create the market and make it possible for many people to buy that which was not previously possible. Now you can click "Make a plan" and begin a supported retrofit journey. #Retrofit #ClimateCrisis #LocoHomeRetrofit #Coop locohome.coop/ 2/2

Hi y'all! I'm a writer, researcher, and organizer living on unceded Kumeyaay land. I'm Faculty Director of the #Labor Center at UC San Diego as my day job, where I profess in the #Communication dept, the Science Studies #sts program, and the #Design Lab. I write about #techworkers serving capitalism and fighting capitalism. I help build #tech people want (eg Ride United #coop #taxi #app) and fight the tech we don't. I helped found AI data worker project #turkopticon. Former coop kitchen manager.

I pledge that when I ask for money for work, I will NOT:
- work for a boss
- be a boss
- let myself be exploited
- exploit or cheat anyone else
- do subpar work or stuff I don't believe in just for money
- use or support ads, tracking, LLMs or other privacy-/rights-violating software or similar (including yet-to-be-invented) technologies
- create artificial scarcity or tacitly support it
- make my services too expensive for people who need them

Instead I will work for donations or with a sliding scale so people pay according to their means.

*Niche request, please boost:*

Looking for input and expertise in **how to legally co-own a multigenerational family home** where seven of us live.

Two married couples with kiddos, plus a mother-in-law, all on the same property, living in what is essentially a single unit.

Our goals:
* giving all parties a fair share of home equity, given that one of us paid more for down payment and the rest of us pay for mortgage;
* minimizing complication + taxes when oldest person passes away;
* not paying a ton of money to a lawyer to handle this
* still able to put some/all of our land into conservation, eventually

Ideas:
Tenants in common with a co-ownership agreement? A complex trust? A coop or LLC?

EDIT: I'm in Massachusetts, USA
