good morning everyone it is now 6 0 7 so overnight we got lots of wind very very
windy here in Rhode Island it's actually still windy now so windy 40 to 50 mile
an hour winds luckily knock on wood here in Rhode Island we don't get a lot of
really major major storms although we've had a few tornadoes last year I think we
had nine of them so we're starting to get more tornadoes and stuff like that so extreme
weather not so much usually but it can happen here in Rhode Island as well
hurricanes stuff like that we've been lucky nothing like that we really haven't
had any blizzards in the last few years just getting out of this winter we
hardly had any snow rain we've had a couple floods here and there.
One in April a few years ago.
So the weather now going into the next few months is going to be kind of extreme, stormy.
You never know what's going to happen in spring.
But I'm just glad there's forecasts for a couple days of 60 degrees and as I've been saying for a while
I'm going to start a mass recycle but first I get to move stuff
in different places. I already have my gazebo full of metal and plastic.
I have to continue to add more into there for now. That's going to take some sort of extra help to get that
all done. Maybe still a few years away for that, but that's where I'm storing everything
for now. So we'll just see how it goes this spring. I need to clean out some spaces in
my interior house and I got lots of metal and plastic to recycle and I got lots of systems that have been partially taken apart
mostly the Xbox 360 Fats that I took the heatsink sets off
and the motherboard set might work with the drive. I've got stacks of those
I may look around for someone that may be interested in taking a whole bunch of those off my hands
for not too much
so I got lots of ideas lots things I got to do
My health is a little bit questionable yesterday. I feel better today
though, I think I'm just getting older now and I just
Just I have an elbow that
Hurts all the time now my right elbow
It never not hurts
So I it's much weaker now
So I thought it maybe I'd live to be 100, but the way I feel these days,
luckily I make it to 60.
Because I will be 57, April 8th is my birthday, so we made it to there, which I'm shocked
I did, but luckily I had some life changing things that saved me, and being clean and
sober since 2011 was the game changer. I would have never
made it if not and getting my mental health in check has been also pretty good so that's
good everything's pretty stable as can be although now I'm just starting to feel the
age that's all and again and I haven't I don't drink, don't smoke, don't do anything like
that just
Significantly aged in the last few years. You can just see it. It's aging is actually really fun It's like the means to the end in some way. So it's really interesting to see what's what's next
This is this one. This this life's been a little bit of a struggle for me. I actually it's been a major struggle, but
Look forward to seeing what's next after this
But we'll just keep plugging away in this one. Hopefully for as long as I can lots of fun technology stuff. That's
All right, so what I'm gonna do I decided
Yesterday, I've been really branching out and playing some new games
So I'm gonna do a little game review as a little second podcast
I'm gonna start because there's a few games
that I really like and yeah so we're gonna do a little game review in context to what
games that I like. It's not a game review for everybody because everybody likes different
things but I'm just gonna go through some games. Recently I've been playing a little
bit more at the end of the day so we'll go through that. We'll pick some games recently I've been playing a little bit more at the end of the day so we'll go through that we'll pick some games that I like and then not
so much I like I'm the kind of person that I'll play a game once or twice and
if something happens I don't like it then I'm probably never played again even
if I spent a lot of money on it so we'll see
see. Alright so let's go to the morning government. Let's see the government. It's really the main concern but there's not really anything you can do about it. It's just
unleashing all kinds of crazy stuff. That's what I said when two times when when the new
government was formed I said hold on to your hats it's gonna get crazy
nothing too bad yet but still kind of worried you can really do about it
uh checking through the news so what I do yesterday already. Checking through the news. Oh what did I do yesterday? Oh I did Apple Schmap out yesterday. Worked on my 2M1420 Apple Classic. One good motherboard, two motherboards,
it gave me some sort of a checkerboard screen. It's not the RAM chip so I'm not sure. And
the one that does work, I need
to swap over the screen because the front part of it's broken.
I may keep one just to have, and I'll
sell all the parts off the other one, something like that.
So we were swip swapping stuff yesterday,
trying to figure out.
It's easy when you have more than one thing of the same,
and the other one, and you have one that fully works then it's
really easy to figure out what's going on or at least I have an idea so swap
in the other two motherboards I just could not get either one of them to work
and I don't know why not really interested in why they don't work oh
it'll be fun there is one chip that's socketed I could remove a chip but I'm
afraid to do that because last couple couple times
I tried to swap chips and the broon in both boards, so I don't do that with the Apple's motherboard
I didn't mind doing with the other ones, but
So I'm not sure why but I'm gonna sell those as parts boards
Sooner and then I got there's another hard drive so all the parts I
got there's another hard drive so all the parts I have five of those total three other color classics not color I had one color classic so lots of parts
off of that the other two I have are the 512k enhanced and then the other ones are
they just the Macintosh classic and 1420 all right so let's see what's going on this morning here. Etsy, I thought I heard something on Etsy but I guess not.
I can hear little dings on my phone that tells me if there's
a purchase or something.
Let's see, no no.
Good review, very prompt service. Oh that's cool.
Those are the, he got the, what you
would call it, three game gear rechargeable battery packs, of course I always ship out
things the same day as quickly as possible, even when I was, yesterday when I was sick,
I was in the hospital for a few hours, nothing major, just getting some testing done,
and it would just be more of a checkup than anything.
But while I was sitting there, I was thinking,
oh god, I got all these orders.
Then when I got home, I went to the emergency room
at 2.30 in the morning, I was home by five.
I was just like me being just getting up,
and I just, I did orders until 12 o'clock.
So those would be all orders, if for some reason
I couldn't get out of the hospital, that would be backed up.
Luckily, that didn't happen.
So there isn't really time that I can actually not get backed up.
So that's why we have to keep on the same routine that we do every day.
Hence the Groundhog Day.
It sounds like I got some messages on eBay too so we'll check that.
Alright so let's see, we're going to RSS feed
no I'm gonna sign in. Big fan of my RSS feed it's cost me a few bucks and
everything you do extra is subscriptions therefore it's more stuff that cost I
don't make a dime off of doing this at this point but it's kind of an addition to my podcast and
hopefully someday it'll pay off if not I'm just sending a message in a bottle
across the internet ocean to anybody that wants to come hang out for a while
had a couple of new ones Finland oh that's cool United Kingdom Canada
Ashburn's always been there for me I I appreciate that Ashburn. Hattiesburg, a couple of those. Lots of new dots. I get the red dot. This is a
map that you can see. It shows you where downloads are coming from. Which is really fun. That's
my favorite part. Just to see where it goes. And I try to keep it as much game related
as possible. Because everything I do is game related
uh I haven't talked directly about gaming stuff lately but I will we'll get to more stuff all
right so let's go to youtube we were significantly uh climbing yesterday let's see what we're at
on my youtube yeah you can always come check me out on YouTube. I do videos every
day, a live feed of some kind. I'm working on another idea. I haven't got quite that
day yet. So we'll do more fun stuff on YouTube. I have 21,448 subscribers. Really exciting
but my revenue just keeps going down. $24.15 for this month so it's
gonna take me more than four months again to to get to $100
bummer and I've been spending $5 a day on promotions the average duration is 29
seconds let's see how many I had. I found more matching circuit boards.
That ended up being a good one. I knew that would do good. My circuit boards, I found
some more and I expanded my desktop style. Pretty fun. So, so it's pretty cool. So yeah,
that one I got a lot of views on that one so that's pretty cool I think I made that a $10 promotion therefore that's why it's more
game board removal I did remove the Japan Wii U gamepad motherboard yesterday
I've done a lot of those now that's pretty simple to do now but you have to
be really careful yeah like that my daily life one that's pretty simple to do now but you have to be really careful yeah I
like that my daily life one that's pretty cool all right so that's fun yeah
I'm gonna work on a new short I got a new idea coming up I'm gonna like to do
like spooky ideas cuz I'm really into my spooky games that I've been playing so
I'm gonna do a new stop motion spooky little thing.
I already got some, I could look around for random things
that I can put into one and then I'll make one.
Pretty fun.
All right, so let's see where we're at now.
So YouTube, yep, it's still climbing.
Although the monetarily wise is going the opposite way.
It's declining. Significantly actually, it's really declined. So, we'll come in
for a few minutes and then they leave. Pretty much the... But I still like doing
stuff every day anyway, and I always will. Kind of my my process as soon as I get up. I need to be doing stuff
Just a way to just make things go the day go by faster. All right, so let's go to eBay and see what's going on
I heard some
Let's find out what's going on in eBay.
Okay, so we have a couple things.
Someone had ordered both of my Apple Duo.
Let's see if he paid yet.
Apple Duo laptops.
I think you did pay.
Yeah.
OK.
Cool.
It was the duo 20, 20, duo 230 and 210 and one power adapter.
It was the two laptops.
It was going to Canada and he paid.
So we'll get that out today, and then I sold a super Nintendo motherboard cartridge slot
So lots of those
Yeah, so let's check my feedback here
See we have going on this morning of course disk drive came exactly as described. Oh, yeah, so we did that one yesterday and today was a
excellent course this drive came exactly as described oh yeah so we did that one yesterday and today was a excellent ship seller ship fast a plus three button set for the super fan calm which is like the Super Nintendo except I had a much
better design on the outside and I'm waiting for some good fun stuff to come
in too we're gonna have some fun one thing's not gonna come in I'm not sure what happened I'm trying to get a IBM 5155 to
work
23 dollars. No, I'm going to wait on that.
Alright, so.
So, I'm not going to take that.
I thought I could.
No, I'm going gonna wait on that.
Okay, so let's see what's going on.
I think it's the same message from the person who.
Defective donor, paid.
Okay, great.
Hey, I didn't think,
I don't think my offer would work. I'll send me tomorrow, okay
Will ship today I
Make sure
That each buyer is very aware. He was asked me why I put in the word defective donor I make sure I make sure that each buyers know that these may not be fixable, hence used as a donor laptop for another you have. Defective The defective tells the buyer it is not working as intended. Let buyers know right in the main title that these may not be fixable, hence you use as a donor laptop for another another one you have
to fix defective tells a buyer that is not it is not working as intended when shipped.
So, he was asking me why I put defective donor in the title.
I do that most of the big major things I put today.
I said I'm gonna ship it today and I said,
I make sure to let buyers know that,
know right in the main title that these may not be fixable,
hence used as a donor laptop for another one.
You have to fix.
Defective tells the buyer that it is not working as intended
when shipped.
So defective donor, that's in bold and these are in bold to stand out.
I have videos on my YouTube channel testing these exact ones. So, we'll get that out today. Let's see.
Let's see if you, I think you just replied to me, so let me check it out.
No, we didn't.
Cool.
Alright, so that's, I guess, so I had two orders, I didn't take that order. Let's see my summary here.
So I sold a few things yesterday.
Again, like I said, I was pumping out orders until I wasn't.
After I got home from the hospital.
It sounds like it's more major than it really was.
I was kind of really concerned yesterday. I wouldn't know when just because I wanted to go on
Luckily, it was 2 30 in the morning. So there's nobody yet in the hospital. So and I'm getting a major checkup
I got all my blood work done. So they had no blood clots
Blood work for the heart. I got done. I got chest check it chest x-rays that showed negative. There was nothing there
I got to see those so that was cool
No other
Immunity or any any other sort of thing so I'm just wondering why all of a sudden my elbow hurts all the time
I was getting concerned about that has something to do with me else being sick
Because it's just really weird. It's just all of a sudden now really really hurts all the time so just like
instant arthritis is that what I got going on I don't know but everything
checked out all the blood work so and my insurance should cover it and I hardly
ever ever get sick or go to the burnsy room, but I just think it was just after the end of a long winter that
Normally by the end of the winter. I'm usually feeling this kind of crappy, so I
Think that's what it is, but it just seemed a little bit more than I was used to
So and again, I'm 57. You know you stop people stop dropping at any age in the 50s and in the 60s
So you start looking at your own. Oh
He did just comment back. So
Okay, okay, okay, okay, so he did watch all cool
Exactly Cool. Exactly as you will get them.
Many times, when buyers cannot fix something,
they try to return it.
Many times.
Many times when buyers, many times, cool,
these are exactly as you'll get them.
Many times when buyers cannot not fix something they try to return it
And we don't want that so this guy watched my videos. That's cool. I
Do lots of videos as cross reference or mirror back to my eBay store and in this case it worked
Although I can't put the link if I could put my eat my youtube link on each listing
That would be awesome then they then buyers can quickly go to the
Whatever video I had for that part or system that worked or didn't work
But unfortunately the eBay doesn't let me do it. They think we're selling off eBay a silly stuff
only the eBay doesn't let me do it they think we're selling off eBay of silly stuff so but looks like he where he watched the video so that's cool so it does work
out but it's just dumb
Yes, I will work on it today as a video project. I'll do the packing of those today on a VIZI video project.
So, it's just two laptops. I've got a big enough box for it.
We'll pack them in a whole bunch of packing stuff.
Alright, so that's my morning everyone.
Glad you could stop in.
You can always check out my YouTube and of course my eBay store if you want to buy some
gaming stuff.
Today I'm going to do some, I'm going to do another video and I'm going to do it mid-day
and I'm going to do some reviews, some I'm gonna do some reviews some games that I'm really like well my style games
I should say as I always say it's not really anybody's everyone has their own thing
But the kind of ones I like that I found a bunch of them that are really really fun
And so we'll do that today alright, so you guys have a good afternoon. Talk to you later alright. Bye
