According to the UK’s Labour Party’s report on worker co-operatives in 2017, the main difficulty is access to credit (capital). It makes sense since the model basically eliminates “outside investors”. It has to

1. Bootstrap with worker’s own investment, or
2. Get investment from credit unions, or
3. Have (national or local) government to back it up

Even in the above cases, the credit is often not large or cheap enough for the cooperatives to be competitive. (There are examples in the report that serve as exceptions, I highly recommend giving it a read.)

So at least from this, I’d think the appropriation of means of production would be more fundamental rather than being a simple result of some special way of organizing.

This calls for air guitar!

Yes. It’s from the coin machine that sells a random toy in capsule. Gacha is the clicking sound that machine makes when you turn the button to get a capsule.

A bit concerning if an AfD take-over can’t be completely ruled out.

Probably just investor activists floating the idea to test the water. They’ve been wanting to sell Intel for parts since the bad quarter and Pat (former CEO) being evicted is part of this plan.

Look, a Gentooman is up for dating.

A lot of people call set -euo pipefail the “strict mode” for bash programming, as a reference to "use strict"; in JavaScript.

In other words, always add this if you want to stay sane unless you’re a shellcheck user.
