My Number One forgot she's only a year older than me. Something he did I mentioned that he showed me ir something, I don't remember, but I remember she said she's sure he's around my age,I say he's 20, and yeah .. .
I'm sure Riker at first also kept forgetting what age Picard actually is.

I have been fussing and fussing around with virsh. I cannot figure out why it won't create a default network, but I can make a network using the ip command set. That works though it probably shouldn't; but I can't get any information out of the virt-manager to tell me what I am doing right. I can't get any info any info any info. "READ THE MANUAL" yeah thanks The manual says to tell virsh to make a default network, but it won't make one. Actually its supposed to do it without needing any help.

I've been fussing around with shopify. But I made great progress today. A few things left to figure out regarding shipping and taxes, a couple more menu and cosmetic thingies, get some more items on it looking pretty and it'll be open for business. Then it's hyper focusing on the aesthetics of the site, more items and optimizing the site. And then some more stuff to make it look complete and polished.
@Revoltingest would be shocked to see the strategies, tactics utilized and my upmark.

I've been trying to make mediawiki do something I don't think it's capable of doing if I'm reading the manual correctly.

I read the liquid (used by shopify) documentation, but I never went beyond that. It was a tangent to reading about Rust and a gui thing that used liquid. I read it. Its some kind of macro thingy that is pretty easy to read about, but the word 'Shopify' hurt my feelings. I don't know why.

 

[Brickjectivity]

How can you read shopify? Its not a real word.

Of course, you won't profiteer by charging
more than things cost you, right?

Technically no as this stuff isn't in short supply. It's basically yes from huge mark ups by selling cheap junk to nindiscerning buyers. The sorts who 20 years ago would pay over $50 for a crappy pleather university coat that only cost about 8 bucks in the store.
The type of markup that's for people who are known for being quick and loose with their money, but also a markup that says buy more and spend more because you can't just have one (according to Lays, and I can definitely have just one of their greesy slabs of blugh), and I would definitely rather have 50 of your hard earned dollars than just 10. $50 dollars that someone else earned from a job, earned from hard work and the sweat of a brow, money that I manage to put in my pocket by just saying "see all this cool ****?" (ok, I did more than that but don't tell. I like saying I'm lazy.)

If you don't charge more than your
cost, why bother selling at all?

I don't understand this.

The sun is shining. My walk is beckoning. I'm going to get off my butt in a minute or three.

We're getting snow again.

Its cold, its gross, and its precipitation. Happy to see it.

Yeah, I started to figure out this liquid thingy last night and finally managed to get the footer menu with all the policies and stuff to appear at the bottom of the screen.

Because I want to be comfortable. Not even rich, just comfortable enough to say forever toodles to the world of jobs.

I don't understand this.

Basically I tend to have a markup that starts at around 5 times what it costs me, it does get up to around 10 times or more the amount it costs, and I'm doing it for those who are less than thrifty and savey with their money, those who taught me 20 years ago if it looks cool it doesn't matter what they can go to the store and buy it for, they'll pay top dollar for the coat right off your back.

If you sell with no profit,
discomfort is in your future.

Without profit, what will be
your source of income...
government?

You said no to charging more than cost.
Such mark-up sounds like you intend profit.
