The uniqueness of the DisCO Principles is that they serve as guidelines for tech-savvy (but not techno deterministic or tech-dependent), highly efficient and socially and environmentally oriented organizations.

@dazinism @LeoSammallahti @dynamic I don't think one can make a blanket judgement regarding ag subsidies. i.e., there are societal-valid reasons for subsidizing agriculture. The trouble is that most ag subsidies today are done for invalid reasons.

This could be the year we say NO to the Corporations that oppress us by not using their software or products.
Here is a great site to find free software alternatives: http://switching.software
OS/2's WPS is still the best UI I've used. This is an entirely subjective observation, and I'm not like most people. Windows (pick any edition) is the worst UI I've ever used. Mac UI seems to be the most user friendly for the average person. i.e., not someone who wants to dig under the UI. *nix has always had the best command line.
It would have been interesting to see what Atari or Commodore would have evolved into in a world without Microsoft's anticompetitive monopoly.

@lwriemen This is the same junk ive seen come out of the entrepreneur space for a while. Its like collectivising for rich jerks. You help me i sell you my coaching program for 600 instead of 3000.
@Capheind The article I read, https://www.forbes.com/sites/cherylsnappconner/2013/12/12/can-cooperative-capitalism-succeed/
and a website I looked at http://cooperativecapitalists.com/
Didn't sound very labor focused.
Just ran into the oxymoron, "Cooperative Capitalism". A lot of entrepreneurs seem to be excited about it.[sic] Sounds like an "embrace, extend, and extinguish" effort.
So ready for the faux "We are in this together" messages to go away.
