What am I doing wrong? I realize I havent read up on any user management but I'm completely local here and never created any users myself so why wouldnt it work?

You are receiving that error because you do not have permissions to modify the remote repository. When you do not supply any credentials, your login name (pc in this case) is used and the pc user probably doesn't exist in the remote repository (or you'd have received a password prompt).
To make this work, you'll need to create an account on the remote repository and use those credentials while doing fossil push.
