Understood both, yes i've had it, but only on the first meeting with a new interface, like my recent client who is my first that's on OpenCart.

But Etsy? Just go to etsy.com and the login is obvious, hence my puzzlement.

They're pretty standard around here. In the arid areas, more common than A/C

I seriously just want to f### Off to the forest and live with the animals. Trouble is that all the forests are owned by English Bastards.

From a Taiwan news outlet.

Quote
With the China Meteorological Administration (CMA) on Thursday (July 2) issuing a heavy rain warning across China for the 31st straight day, netizens continue to speculate about the integrity of the Three Gorges Dam as it faces its greatest test since completion in 2003. Although Chinese officials have repeatedly labeled fears the dam could suffer a catastrophic collapse as "nonsense," the region continues to be battered by heavy flooding, landslides, and on Thursday an earthquake.

I'm not inclined to believe authoritarian regimes but I hope they are correct.

I'm not inclined to believe our regime, we have lied (US, UK and all the rest) on many occasions, ours is soft fascism because, once the populace is at a certain level of comfort (the modern version of democracy, which originally means people-power) then you can't bully them like China does, you have to placate them and bring the control plan in quietly and slowly.

We are wearing the visor of fake democracy, we are the victims and the perpetrators, because we have been brain-washed (just like any society is) into thinking 'this is the way, it must be right because we apparently have freedom', then we succumb, we think ours is the best version, whether it be the UK or any other of the Five Eyes.

It's the state vs the people, but the state has had so long to train itself in control of the populace (Western gov is based completely on old Rome) but people live generational lives, we only have memories going back to Grand Dad, The State has had Millenia of training, all archived, and much of the writing is inaccessible to the common person.

There's no left or right or east or west, politically, there's the rulers and the ruled, all that changes is the degree and type of enforcement.

If it goes, Wuhan would disappear.

After the recent Leicester lockdown, a picture similar to this has been doing the rounds on Leicester people's FB pages.

>>>>> order Google to open up its click and query data to rival search engines

What happens when you get a bunch of out of touch politicians who know nothing about the Internet writing the laws.

Too right! We need a Ministry of Digital staffed by professionals, as we do for computer crime. The guys that arrested me didn't even know what port Telnet was on.

Stuck the herb garden on Etsy, along with some plastic stuff my pal makes : https://www.etsy.com/shop/thingcloud/

It's had plenty of views (page 1 for vertical herb garden and hydroponic herb garden, Etsy SEO is easy!) but no sales yet.

It's time to put 2 x FDM printers, one resin printer, a cheap Chinese laser cutter and a 3018 CNC to work!

I think the herb garden isn't selling because it isn't arts and crafty, i should probably offer it in different colours with nice pots or something but then the price would have to be raised.

Any criticism welcomed, i'm new to all this retailing!

Speaking of fitting and fastners, for anyone working with plasterboard that hasn't seen these, they are a god-send :

Blimey.

'“We should be wearing masks. We should be social distancing,” Crisp said. “It was too soon to open everything back up.”

Lynch’s general manager said the pub will reopen at 11 a.m. Tuesday.'
