Gooday Gaming Guests - Ground Hog Day 12-Friday the 13-2024

Episode Date: December 13, 2024

I have a Wide-Open Day to do some Fun Gaming Stuff.

Good morning everyone. It is 510, 1213. So today's Friday the 13th. Huh, I didn't realize that until right this second. So today's Friday the 13th. Yesterday felt like a Friday the 13th. I'm sure you've seen some of the videos. Sometimes you give everything you have, hope it's going to be alright and then it just turns into a disaster so that was yesterday so we're trying

to resolve it hopefully we'll get a an easier resolve it just didn't work out the way it should have but there's nothing more I really could have done that I can't think of other than just not shipping that thing out.

That's what I originally wasn't going to, but then I thought I could handle it. But I totally failed. So I was pretty bummed all day yesterday. But luckily the buyer made it a little bit easier. Worst case scenario, he gets his money back and he'll have some extra prop parts but a lot of that stuff can be easily resold even if some of it's broken but it was just too big i shouldn't have shipped it but i thought i thought i had it and i just did so so that today's a new day so fun let's see what's going on this morning. Friday the 13th. That's how this day starts. Interesting.

So let's see some news. Some ideas about stuff as always. So the Rams beat the San Francisco. San Francisco is playing terrible now. They're not even going to make the playoffs. Rams actually are playing a little bit better. I'm a big Matthew Stafford fan. Big fan.

So let's see what's going on here. Anything in the news? It's one of those things where if you start clicking on certain things in the scroller over here when you start clicking on certain things and the scroller over here when you first go on I go to MSN then I get lots more of that same kind of concept and I am

I've been doing a lot of things. I'm really into quantum computing. So that's going to be a big part of me going forward. Obviously I'm not going to learn how to do it. Or have one. But it'll be fun just to learn about it. I like the word entanglement. Physical qubits. And logical qubits.

So those are the kind of things I've learned already. Just simple stuff stuff and time crystals is another thing uh associated with quantum computing scientists control quantum states in new energy in new energy range pretty cool stuff so let's see where the day goes today so we'll start etsy oh my first order yesterday on etsy i was very excited about that and still my only order so i need to it cost me about 50 bucks to get back etsy up and running i sold one thing yesterday so i got a few bucks towards it ten dollars and eighty cents80 was my only order yesterday. But you got to always remember, free shipping isn't free for me.

So it actually cost me about $7. So I ended up with $3.80 towards my $50 startup. So I'm still negative there. Bummer. But long term, it should should pan out i think well let's look at my rs feed big fan of my uh so let's see where we're at rss.com so my podcast i've had now for a few weeks now.

It's been fun. I enjoy it. Especially early in the morning here. You can kind of get a whole idea of what's going to go on for the day for me. Pretty much. So let's see. So log in here. I usually check RSS.com first just to see my um analysis like to see who's uh coming

around checking me out it's kind of those things you just kind of put it out there and then just see where it goes it's pretty fun it's kind of how i operate i just throw things against the wall and see what sticks so i had two downloads from yesterday 110 i'm at now pretty fun and so my my favorite thing ever on this is the dots so i got a different dot so now i have one two three four five six seven dots worldwide red dots uh indicate where people had downloaded from i have an austral one. I have one from India. Mostly from, let me show,

I have one from France. So that's pretty exciting. No other states, no other countries. Oh, that, and then the United States, I have some.

So, and then it goes to a few different places. I have it on, I did open a, Apple podcast. So so it goes there Podbean is another one Podaddicts

is actually that's the most and then Chrome most of them are from Chrome so it's very exciting everybody that comes in and hangs out with me for a little bit alright so we're going to go on to YouTube exciting and be that comes in and hangs out with me for a little bit all right

so we're gonna go on to YouTube all right so that's still growing which is very good but it's only grown because I do small promotions that's key live streams vertical or key and of course there's a million videos here on what else you can do to get to 4 000 hours but anybody that listens to this the reality check of when you get to 4 000 hours is what really needs to be talked about because i've made as of all right so i have 4 484 subs yeah uh my revenue is only 31.24 cents i've made 1.24 cents since yesterday for i don't know it says 80 835 hours watched 86k reviews and i made a dollar so there's the react oh now we're gonna go to um another thing i added on youtube was comments so far so good not too bad let's see i got a couple more let's see um uh doom bro that old that laptop was older

than me yeah older the better on the older the better so i try to reply to the comments as i go here unless or if it's something that's really not nice or weird, I'll just delete it. I'll do the better for vintage computers. So I'm making sure I'm replying to these now all right so so that one was said d y u m bra b r u h the laptop was older than me next comment was that's insanely quiet even more so being so them being delta fans wonderful since they are loud when in the metal chassis If there's a decent way to isolate them off the metal Could make a world of difference. Yes

Yes, I agree good enough and you can actually AI generate a response but I don't want to do that though, what is this this is um 150 vintage apple

it's vintage apple asking what's a laptop i did a uh oh i got my power supply came in yesterday uh for my apple powerbook 150 it does work and even though the screen is all trashed i can't see enough to see that and i could hear the hard drive not working right and Apple gives you the error which is the floppy disk with the question mark and a little guy on there so I can see it through the screen that it's got some sort of a disk or a system on that disk issue but it does work though so buying that power supply was a shot in the dock but I'll usually will do that and it worked so that's cool so now it's listed so if you need a vintage power book 150 for parts it works except the screen well screen kind of

still works too but he says what is this I put vintage Apple laptop pretty basic stuff so I just wanted three comments those five comments have been pretty what happens is once you reply to them then if someone replies back then you kind of miss it

so you have to sit here and kind of go through everything to see if somebody replied back to you and then that's where I lose it oh have to sit here and kind of go through everything to see if somebody replied back to you and i then that's where i lose it uh all right so that's my let's see let's check more youtube stuff here so again 4484 well on my way to five uh happy birthday to your channel let's see what this is four times around the sun you're going still strong way to go uh so i have four i don't know what that means but how's my um so on my analysis page again 31.24 that's your reality my views average around 2.6 k

watch times 835 hours views are 86.3 so those are both going up although because my subscribers are going up so I have less 310 videos published more than usual

so I'm always pumping out10 videos published, more than usual. So I'm always pumping out videos. I always do that. I'll just, I'll have 10,000 before you know it. The craziness. I can't get a lot of views. Oh, I can get views, but I can't keep them for that long. Therefore, the more videos, the more I can make some hours watched.

That's how I've done it pretty much from the beginning. So anyway, I could get to 3,000 and 4,000. Forget it. That was super hard for me. I don't have anything that can really draw people in. Although I like my podcast, though. 1.8k views. 35 hours. So that's pretty fun.

Big fan. Alright, so let's see. Is that analysis? analysis oh one other thing i want to check um oh let me just look at the pages so so my last video last night was my apple uh 150 playing around with that i had 26 views pretty fun so there's a couple things left yeah so that's pretty fun and of course now what i've been doing is as i'm listing more stuff on ebay i do a short uh and then that video is under a minute and then i can i upload that to google drive i do my listing and if it's a one minute video i can put it on the listing

and then i take the link from the listing. That I just made. And I put it on my short. And if I also have a other listing. Of me playing around with the thing. Whatever it may be. I have a link for that too. So I can't make money on YouTube.

Except for $31. But I'm hoping. And it's helped a little bit. To cross mirror back to my store with links So can't hurt that's what it seems of help. I'm not sure how much but That's the way I do so it's kind of like advertisement in some way, but not really so It's like a slow day today to to some things

to orders on a message let's see I have an $8 offer so one thing and I have an $8 offer I don't want to eat offers definitely not a tool for that again always as I say free shipping is not free for me so if you're going to do an $8 offer I'm going to decline it because

by the time I get it all shipped it's $7 my cost out the door I got to make more than a dollar per offer per order when you're getting a door to door service there's there has to be, I have to make a few more bucks than that. Or,

I should not do it. Those have been really slow, so I should basically, should be taking each dollar offer I get. Help me verify it was a part I needed before purchase. Oh, let's check my, let's check my feedback. That's always very important to me. It been pretty good knock on wood so this was the guy with the ps4 1115 a motherboard it's a sab4 pin but you had to make sure that it was an 025 dry board so uh he contacted me and didn't he said

all these can be for any i said no you gotta make sure your dry boat is not an 010 or an 015 it's got to be the 025 or 0204 so that's how what i meant what he meant by help me verify if the part was what i need before purchase. Ship to quality. I am exactly as represented. So that's cool. That's what we like to hear. We like good stuff. Great quality. Good condition. Spindle. Good stuff.

Defective donor board. He sent me a message even though I had to to refund him because I couldn't find sent me a message even though I had to to refund them because I couldn't find the last board. Hardly ever I have to do that

but once in a blue moon I do. So that's and then I just have one sale. So we're continuing on the concept of trying to get some bigger items listed. I do have two power supplies for my three Apple Duo Dock laptops coming in. Because I was playing around with those the other day. I couldn't get neither Duo Dock to work yet.

But there is a power supply for the laptop itself. So therefore I can test those. Sell two of those with a power supply. And maybe keep one. Or just sell that one too. We'll see. So those will be coming in a couple days. So I invested on those.

They were expensive for for for what i needed but i got two of them and hopefully i can sell them with the laptops working or not or sell them separate again they're worth a few bucks any any kind of old uh power supply that's hard to find is worth money and I have some that I've spent a few bucks on a couple little projects that never really paid off yet that the power supply costs more than

anything but soon we can find out if it works it's a lot easier to sell it if you know it works or not with a power supply or you just again just resell that power supply so all right so i got my one order printer on there

all right so let's get this one done all right so that's my morning this morning i can pretty much i'm wide open because this one order take a beat middly literally take me one minute to do so that means i can go on to other stuff i'm going to small computers today um i got a cool Acer. Not an Acer. Yeah, I think it's an Acer. All-in-one. Not all-in-one either. It's a small form. And a couple other things I'm going to list. Windows 7 computer.

Which, they're fun. So that's pretty much it for this morning. Then I'll figure out. What I can do for the day. For later on. I was doing some basic computing yesterday. Probably going to stick there.

Stick with that. I've got my other. TRS-80 computers. And I've got to learn. How to run my Model 4. I have it now on my desktop. Found a nice little space for it so it's going to sit there for a while.

I didn't like it there. It's a good little showcase piece. I think it works now. I'm not positive it fully works. And so we're going to do do that oh i got some vintage uh sega stuff to play around with i have a sega master 2 that's from europe so it's a 220 and the rf is out but i know i can get the rf because i remember it has a game loaded on it.

So I'm going to list that today too. You'll have to get your own 220 adapter. I used a 200 amp one. That worked great. So we'll get that fired up. I might do that first thing this morning. Mix it up. I got some Sega Genesis, this Model 2 1631 VA3 board. And I have a couple of VA 2.3s I want to test.

So I'd like to get those listed. Those I can get for a little bit more. The VA3, you want a VA3 or VA4 Those are the last of the boards for the 1601 those ones work the best I'm not sure about the 2.3 But you know definitely don't want a 1.8 2.0 sometimes can work. I had a lot of those had a lot of those I still have a whole bunch of them. I sell them for parts mostly.

Because there's always something that doesn't work on those. Usually it's the sound. It's usually all static-y and crackly and all that stuff. But we'll play around with that. And I think I had a Genesis something with a um I can't think of it right now. But it's another sort of a Sega thing.

We'll look at that later. All right, so I'll talk to you guys later on today. I'll figure out something to pick on for a system or concept. All right, talk to you later. Bye.
