Gooday Gaming Guests - Ground Hog Day Monday 4/21/2025

Episode Date: April 21, 2025

R.I.P. Pope Francis

Good morning everyone. It is now 6 o'clock in the morning. Just woke up another Good overnight Project journeyman sights and sounds in the books And now we're here this morning So today is Monday. I got a lot of orders over the weekend to fill so most of my day will be doing that But yesterday for Easter Sunday, we don't really celebrate it anyway, just do my own thing like I do on Sundays.

But I did a long hour, maybe hour and a half video playing around my IBM 5150s. I had two of the motherboards that came in and we ended up determining that both of them have some sort of a board short. Because when I plugged them into the power supply, then the power supply doesn't work. And then I take it off and the power supply works again. I removed every component that is socketed.

All the chips and stuff. And then I just kept trying it and I just kept doing the same thing. So there's a lot of those little capacitors or something, C7, there's a lot of the C7s on the board. So I'm thinking maybe something, one of those is going. I was going to think about trying to learn how to fix it, but then I changed my mind. So I listed both those boards. So they are stripped down, anything that was socketed was removed and they are shorted boards and so both those are listed right now I'd listed

those yesterday so that took me a while I was fun I always learn lots of stuff while I'm doing it of course my buddy Zippy is right by my side and I can use him for anything I ever want. And also, I spend a good hour or so each day now prepping my overnight visuals. And that requires Raspberry Pi 5, as I use my visuals to a little projector I have. Just happen to have all those things. It's just amazing and then I Come up with an idea and I work with my buddy Zippy and he prints out a program I have to go through three or four drafts, but he does all the coding for me, which is freaking awesome

I never would have be able to do any of this kind of stuff I wouldn't even know even think about learning about Raspberry Pi But I can understand the coding pretty basically and it's similar very similar to basic that I grew up with so I can see the loops and and everything how things are organized within the program because after he does it once in a while I'll modify it and now I've learned what it looks like I can click on it and edit it the code that we're doing for the night real fun just things everything since the Zippy has come out has just magnified my magnified

my ability to learn things I always wanted to learn or new things that I never knew were possible so it's pretty cool and will continue to do that as long as my brain stays functioning. Oh, the pope died. Oh, God bless him. Oh yeah, I had a feeling that something was gonna turn, it turned on him.

They finally just let him pass away. God bless him. He did get to get out of the hospital, so that's cool. Oh, that's a shame. So, 88. Yeah, I had a good life. I mean, they did probably everything possible to try to keep him alive for as long as they did,

but at least he like, again, he got out of the hospital. Probably went into like hospice kind of thing. All right, so let's see. Check in any other news. That's pretty big news there. But you know, if you want it's your time, it's your time. And you have to respect that. And you're at peace. And then like I said, I believe you go on to something else.

There's got to be something else after this. And then like I said, I believe you go on to something else. There's got to be something else after this. It's like a stepping stone. So I'm excited myself for what's next. But, well, keep plugging away with this life while we have it. As long as it'll go, we'll just keep learning as much as I can. Okay. Alright, so let's see.

Anything else I've seen in the news real quick? Other than the government going crazy as we all expected. It's getting crazier now, so we're starting to get even crazier, unfortunately. Maybe good to go from out of it, but so far not really anything good that I've seen.

I can say, wow, that really changed everything. It's actually pretty much the opposite. But we'll see. Maybe things will pick up somehow. Maybe, hopefully. All right, so let's plug away here. Let's look at Etsy. No orders lately.

None again. I even had's look at Etsy. No orders lately. No, none again. I even had, I think I even had a sale on Etsy. No luck. I only had one order in the last week, I think. Again, for every, I don't know, one order I get on Etsy, I sell like hundreds of stuff on eBay so Today it's the 21st right April 21st. Today's Monday. So it's a new work week after the holiday weekend Let's look at my RSS feed I had some downloads yesterday that was pretty cool. Let's see what we got here this morning. So today we are gonna concentrate on orders and then I will try to get to some video stuff. I'm not sure what we're doing today. We'll double back to some other projects probably that I haven't finished. I've got tons and tons of those kind of

projects. It's never a project. I have quite finished yet But I like to mix it up do a little bit I had two downloads last night So I welcome anybody that comes in from UK Ireland Dublin some more from Manola Manola Okla, Okla, Okla, United States, Orlando. I'd love to go to the new Universal Studios. The five theme park there looks pretty cool and of course go back to Disney too.

I'd like to do that again once again in my lifetime. It's been a long time since I've been there, but I would love to go. So I've had 45 downloads in the last 30 days, 30 and I've been there, but I would love to go so I've had 45 downloads in the last 30 days 30 and I've had 507 In lifetime, so it's pretty cool. Just something I started part of my YouTube so you can always come over to YouTube see what's going on Check out videos as always daily. I'm pretty much on 24-7 So you can check me out anytime Always trying to come up with new things to do

All right, so speaking of YouTube. Let's hit that I had a few 600 plus overnight views again most people just come in for a second check see what's going on check out my visuals And I pretty much sleep in the same position all night. I move around a little bit, but I'm not like a maniac sleeping, so it kind of works out. So I'm at 33,948 subscribers. I hit 653 views overnight. My revenue is still $28.12. My view time, view hours went up to 91 hours

and 9k which is higher than normal. So everything goes up but my revenue goes down. And the revenue is just like, just like dirt revenue. Just dimes, pennies. $28.12 cents for the amount of time I put into YouTube that's pretty bad. But it's just I just don't for some reason I just have some thing that misses the mark when it comes to any sort of revenue. I don't know what that is but I miss it. I completely miss it. I think I'm at 8,000 something videos now. But most times people don't. Even though I have many, I have my main page set up

at 12 different places to look for stuff. The odds of people looking around for other videos is pretty small for me. So it's either you see it now as it comes out or live overnight or then it's over. And then it just goes into the abyss of a past video. It seems that's definitely true. So I sent a couple subscribers I was able to subscribe to Getting close to 34,000 That'd be cool Almost there

948 so Let's go to see let's look at Let's get some analysis on my overnight video is still up now. Again, I go back. Now I'll go... I'll add session feeds to it. I did a red theme last night. I'll do... I tried a different sound. I have different sounds I use and then we just let it run and just as it it is and and then I'll go back and pick out some I call them session feet imprints Pick up some pick out some spots like when I get out of bed. I think I usually twice a night called nature's drain

We may add audio at some point again and some other sort of visuals Again, it's all what I decide to do That I can do with my buddy Zippy so we'll see what we come up with all right so let's look at eBay so we're plugging away so he was in the wheelchair the other day when he must have something that's to happen but again the pulp that is we're talking, alright, so we got some feedback here on... Alright, so we're at, so for, let's see, we're on eBay now. Of course eBay is my lifeline.

All right, so let's talk over there. And I just realized he had two different orders, but still, same deal. Okay. Alright, so let's see what we got for orders here this morning. So that was the only feedback. There was a little bit of a ding. Let's check my orders. Xbox 3C. Oh, I sold my my 320GB hard drive, cool. Oh I sold a Wii, a Wii sealed balance board, the disc, Wii U rather, and the little thing that goes with it.

I sold another power supply, I had one more of those, I found that. And I sold another screw set for the inside of the Nintendo Wii, actually. So, I had a goal this weekend, I was hoping I could get to it. I think I might have made it there, not quite. eBay had changed it where they took the... so they had it a different way so it wasn't costing me two dollars and now they're still doing it the other way but it's still costing me two dollars. And you don't think well two dollars is a lot but two dollars every time you have to quick express it adds up. They added a percentage they were doing like one or

two percent that was crazy but it's really just I live by the order so I barely have enough money to make it so I always have to do express so they get get you there. Alright, let's see what we got going on here. Final review, $10. No, we didn't want to do that. $35, exact. I think I know what that is. Zelda. Yeah, we're gonna take that. I've had that forever. I'll just get rid of that. So that's a Zelda case. I'll take that. It's only just... I've had that forever. It's got stickers on it. It's the Nintendo GameCube and it's got like a set of Zelda stickers on it. And I've had it forever. And I'm not gonna get the price I wanted for it. So we decided just we'll take that Nintendo weed effective donor times

10 yeah I'll do times 10 for 50 bucks I can handle that I'll go with that that'll help me so it's 10 10 we drives many different issues. Just randomly take 10, and they don't work normally. For whatever reason, there's so many different ones. Cartridge slot, what do we got going on here? I see. I have a question, I was wondering if you fixed mine. I have several different games in this, but all black screen. Yeah

Question was wondering if this would fix I said So yours yours is a junior So no He's do not fit that, I believe. This is yours. Yours. Yours. Yours. You have a junior.

Junior, jail. You have a junior, so no, these do not fit. Do not fit. Junior, Jr., Jr., Jr. So no, these do not fit, do not fit, fit those, I believe. I am not sure those even remove inside. You would need to open it and check first. Most issues with these are not a cartridge,

cartridge slot, but the motherboard itself needs components replaced Replace. Components replaced. It says you have a Junior. So, I have the Super Nintendo cartridge slot listed. And he showed me a picture of a Junior.

Which is the smaller version of the Super Nintendo. So, I don't believe it's the same cartridge. You would have to open and check first. Most issues with these are not a cartridge slot, with the motherboard itself itself itself motherboard itself needs components replaced so

so I'm saying no on that alright ok so alright alright alright So, what do we have here? Alright, so we'll send a couple offers here. So it usually takes me a while. My groundhog day in the morning takes me a while sometimes.

Because if I see things like this, I'm going to reply to anything that I see, I do with a message there. And I'm going to ship through some other offers here. And then we'll get our day going. So I have a lot of stuff to do today, but it's all, which is cool. It's all order related, so it's awesome. Just what we needed.

So we'll do a couple more things. I throw another 5%, so I'm like at 40% off stuff pretty much. Or across the board. Sometimes you just have to do what you gotta do. Good. Alright, so that should be it for the morning. We've got a lot of work to do. Wow, it was on for a while, 32 minutes.

I really wanted to put that to reply. All right, so you guys have a good afternoon and you can check me out anytime on YouTube today, tonight, overnight, anytime. I'm around always. I'll talk to you later. All right, bye.
