🌱 Why choose Coop Cloud for your collective?

A creature from Datakollektivet.no joined us, wondering if they should move from ansible to coop cloud. Here's some of our reasons for joining:
- Coop Cloud helps reduce skill silos, allowing more people in your org to share infrastructure responsibilities.
- Deploying new services is more cost-effective, because many interactions are preconfigured: e.g. centralized configuration, SSO, health checks, and upgrades.
- When you do have to perform work setting up a service, others in the community will benefit and may contribute to your efforts.
- Creating a new recipe involves following guidelines which ensure stable and robust deployments.
- Offboarding is easy. You can stop using abra at any time and manage your deployment using another tool.
- Maybe most importantly, the community around coop cloud is valuable to its members, as a place to get together with other tech cooperatives and collectives.

At the @BZKopensource we're about to soft launch the government-wide code platform, based on Forgejo, and we've had to promise that we would offer a similar uptime as GitHub.

So.. do we just turn off the platform on Tuesdays? 🤔

This "careful" "AI Safety" company that just accidentally leaked its entire source code to the world is the one that African governments are entering into agreements with to include in infrastructures from health care to god knows what.

These are the products people have to use to make sure that they don't get dinged in their performance reviews for "not using AI."

These are the products teachers have to use in schools so that "students aren't left behind."

Are you tired of so-called AI features being pushed on everyone everywhere?

Do you obstinately refuse to use these unethical technologies out of moral principles?

Do you write to your government representatives to tell them to oppose citizens' data being fed to proprietary corporate AI?

Are you part of the Slopposition? ✊ :no_ai:

i have been writing a graph processing library for about a year now and if i was a fucking AI grifter here is where i would plug it as like "actually a graph processor library" and "could do all of what claude code does without fucking being the worst nightmare on ice money can buy."

I say that not as self promo, but as a way of saying how in the FUCK do you FUCK UP graph processing this badly. these people make like tens of times more money than i do but their work is just tamping down a volley of dessicated backpacking poops into muskets and then free firing it into the fucking economy

“The answer isn’t to try to take a dictator and make them a better dictator, right? We’ve got these social media dictators,” EFF’s Cindy Cohn said on The Daily Show. “The answer is to get rid of the dictators and make them less important.” thewrap.com/culture-lifestyle/

Capitalist, colonialist exploitation depends on traumatized children. It all depends on traumatized children, & it always has.

The Epstein class fights us on "social" issues because the logical result of respecting all people would be a world where people become hard to exploit & even harder to convince to do someone else's violence.

Without suffering, the power structure collapses. The suffering is necessary to the economic system.
