Gooday Gaming Guests - Ground Hog Day New Years Day 1-1-2025

Episode Date: January 1, 2025

Now the Long Months of Winter Begin with No Holidays of Joy.

Good morning everyone. It is now January 1st, 2025. Just woke up. It's 5 o'clock. And of course for me, I went to sleep at 4.30 last night, so I didn't see any of the celebrations. But we'll do a brief look through, see how all the celebrations went overnight so yesterday I kind of got some stuff done and then I sat my dogs for a few hours but I've got my truck fixed my mother was it was nice out so my mother got to go out for a while she went out for a few hours so I got to sit my dogs and that was fun I took some little videos of them they're always And that was fun. I took some little videos of them.

They're always cool. My little buddies too. I took some videos of those guys just hanging out. And so today's a holiday. Because it's New Year's Day. There's not as many things closed as Christmas Day. But still lots of stuff closed. And yesterday some things did close a little bit earlier for

new year's eve but not really not like christmas eve but things closed really early so there's no post office today of course yesterday i get all my orders out of course because i'm always doing orders that's why you want to buy from me because i'll even on new year's, I was pumping out orders until I was done. I think I have an order that came in after the mailman came, so I wasn't doing any. So that's it for the day. So I just have one order for tomorrow. So I get a little bit of a break, so I've got some fun ideas planned for today. I want to look at the first thing I want to do is

now I was doing the PS3 Fats the other day the backwards compatible is the one I want to concentrate on and I got one of the motherboards the COK001 and I'm gonna I'm pretty sure I have a COK002

out I want to compare them in a video and I want to I'm pretty sure I have a C okay oh oh two oh I want to compare them in a video and I want to pull one off the G which should be another C okay oh to see okay oh to both two ports so I want to see the difference between the three because we did the boot process on them and I learned that A and B are the true backwards compatible. E has the COK002 which is an emulation of the PS2 whereas the COK001 and A and B actually has the E emotion chip on it. Things I've learned from just doing boot processes. It's very exciting so we're gonna look at those directly as a video so let's look at my morning here let's see what we're doing never know what the morning's gonna

bring um let's see 20 years later interesting Interesting. Zombie movie. I don't think I've ever seen the other ones. Best zombie movie I saw that I've seen is on Netflix. It's called A Girl with a Gift. That's the best one ever. It's different than any other one. Had a different name before. They changed the name, I think.

Such a weird name for it but it's really good best movies to watch I still haven't watched lots of movies I haven't really seen anything wicked Wicked I'd like to see. I could get into a musical. Alright, so briefly looking through the news. I don't see any deducting. One hour of complex scientists.

Nothing there. Let's see. I don't see really anything about New Year's Day. Man charged with attempting murder after super shooting at least usually i see like a thing of celebrations and stuff but so nothing bad so that's cool so everything probably went easily for new year's eve in times square i'm sure it was fun i'm sure there's tons of videos around of it.

New form of oxygen observed for the first time. Alright. So the things this morning look pretty... And I always... My main page is MSN, so I get this little box here to

quickly go through to see if I see anything that sticks out but nothing right now all right so let's get the morning going uh etsy let's see what we got going on still negative on etsy literally negative on etsy no orders bummer but we'll we'll hang in there with that um let's go to my rss feed oh so yesterday i also did i finished up sega i had sega saturn and dreamcast to finish up for my boot process and that was the end of the era of sega was a sega dreamcast um so that was pretty fun and i I also did... Oh, I was really into learning about think tanks yesterday. Communes, think tanks, neuroplant.

So I did one and I did a commune think tank. And, of course, the concept of having universities for 50 and older. Because it's like another phase of your life, really. I had four uploads overnight. Pretty cool. Let's see. Seems to be the same. I don't know if the dots change per day or if the dots stay the same.

Nine locations by total by nine yeah so when you turn 50 and 60 most people if they have kids and all that uh they become empty nesters so there's a phase where you're really going back to being who you were originally so what why couldn't there be a college uh dedicated to that people, hey, maybe they'll sell their house and go live on campus for four years and learn something at 60, right? Most times it's 50, after 50, 60 people are getting divorced and so to me, that's the next phase

that you're on your own from kids and most likely from whatever partner you had that has ended for me it just never happened it just wasn't in the cards at all at all but yeah so why not that phase there

50, 60 even 70 why not go back to college go live on campus for 4 years and sell your house and put the rest of it into some sort of a uh and then learn something new and then you could because there's so many things you can do now that are not uh based on having to go to a job you can go to a college where it could be to learn how to to make your own business entrepreneur kind of college maybe yeah because it wouldn't be if you're in 50 to 70 you need something kind of like what i do

at home where you you can use your knowledge or understand the knowledge that's around us now and it's going to only increase more, where you can do anything you want from home. There's no need to be... So your last phase, it's not really your last phase, but it's the next phase, and on that phase, you go back to school, and you learn an actual trade

or something really technical that you can do from home, as opposed to being just retired and doing nothing and letting your brain rot away i couldn't i i don't think i could ever just not do anything so i mean there are people that just that's what they want to do that's great uh but i'm sure there's a lot of people out there that would love to get that next chance after a divorce and all the kids have gone, go back to school. But in the fun way, going back to school, like sign up, go to a university. But a university, it would be smaller, obviously. But I bet you'd get a lot of people.

I don't know how they would pick the people that would go, but I think it's possible. Figure it out. Just some ideas banging around in my head. Alright, so RSS feed, pretty cool. I only had a few downloads. I mean uploads rather. Alright, so let's go on to YouTube. I've been really plugging away at YouTube. Let's see how we're doing here. Significantly going... Oh, some guy says negative 200. So let's see where we're at.

Oh, so we're going up a little bit more. 7,580. Cool. My goal now is 10,000 subscribers. Again again we don't use the word subs because it's disrespectful i don't like that everyone uses that word it just seems weird like a sub to me not someone who's uh at your uh going to your or subscribing to your thing So let's see my hours going up 909 Hours 103 my revenue has not changed at all actually $37.28 Okay, I did have some oh we did a couple little things with my little buddies

quick short videos and i was really into hanging out with him yesterday it was so much fun i had 23 views yeah that's my little buddies i got some new things for my bird. I finally had some new circles that I could hang on the thing. He loves hanging on those little circles and you can eat the circle.

It was really fun. He loves those. I've had that bird for a few years now. My guinea pigs and I've got my one little white hamster that's just hanging in there. I just keep them going, keep healthy best i can all right so i don't see any comments this morning let's check through to see if any had updated sometimes once a comment goes to please let me know i would like to have it oh so this guy was asking about

oh we're gonna go to ebay in a minute i'll send him a link to that retention i have lots of older comments but i haven't really gone back to any of those uh we're just sticking with the newer ones okay so I don't see anything really there so I promoted a big my one on one promotion which has been going pretty good

that's again I think why I'm getting more subscribers let me check promotions but I put a big promotion on that so I may change it actually I don't want to put all my eggs in one basket Alright, so now we're on to, let's see what's going on this morning for eBay. My daily lifeline and also where I go for the day, depending on what eBay is doing for me here. It's gotten a little bit better.

I've got to put some more stuff up. Feedbacks. So it was like we had some sort of a negative problem here. the malfunction was not what was described but that's good since I know what is the issue and how to fix it oh yeah these are defective these are defective donor sound boards very very clear still interested to see this Japanese

faulty finally I have a motherboard I can use as an aftermarket case thing is clean as a whistle. Like the photos. So, yeah. So, I'll have to re-comment that. The whole purpose when I put a listing, it's defective in caps

and it's a donor. Meaning it doesn't work. It has some issue. Was not was not what was described. But that's good. It's exactly what was described. But that's good. It's exactly what was described. Let's comment to that.

Alright, so let's Alright, so all right so so if i see something it's a positive feedback yet it's saying i did something that's uh not correct so therefore that turns into a negative feedback so we don't like that i have four oh we'll look at that i'll go back to that in a minute i'm gonna write out a ten dollars for thirteen dollars that's fine so most of my orders are like twelve12 and less but I still get offers for lower I go as low as 10 I really don't want to because as we know it cost me by the time I get these things out even if it's a screw it's costing me $7 to get out the door if I take a $10 offer it's only a few bucks we'll take a $10 offer, it's only a few bucks. But we'll take it today.

Let's see what else we got here. $60. Four times 15. Four times 15. Wait, is that the guy that just, oh, Texas Instrument $20 if you're really really off on

I just decline meaning if you're like trying to get three quarters off of what I'm listing it for I just decline. I never do counters, as I've always said, because I don't want to waste the buyer's time, and I certainly don't want to waste my time. So I just decline it,

and most times I never hear from that really low offer again. People just throw offers out. They think you'll just take it. That's two. I'm all right for a while. So. Might take that, but I think it's the same guy. Sometimes simple things can annoy me a little bit. And then it changes my perspective of that buyer. Because now I worry if I send him more,

this guy more stuff, am I going to get more feedback? I think it's the same guy, actually. But for now, I'm going to decline it. Because I don't want to do that anymore. I don't want to do four for $15. So I'm going to decline it. Because I don't want to do that anymore. I don't want to do four for $15. So I'm going to decline that. I'm not going to do that again. So if something...

So let's go back to that feedback. Where is it? So I can reply to it. I believe it's the same guy. Yes, it is. Okay. Yeah, so it is the same guy. So I just reply to it. I believe it's the same guy. Yes it is. Okay. Yeah, so it is the same guy. So I just change it. in the title title described the best I could.

I make it very clear in the main title, main title, this always gets me in trouble, I don't care. Main, nope in trouble the main the main title that each is a defective donor

motherboard this means donor motherboard. This means exactly what it implies. Implies. Implies. implies all have some issue

but I never know what each is as a donor motherboard it also it may never fully work but is

for taking parts off of that are found good are found good and used for another motherboard you have. So these are, these were, these are,

not were, these are described best as possible. I do not do board work or know the electronics do board work or know the electronics or know

the electronics or know electronics electronics so I have no idea each each So I have no idea. Each, each.

I think I already said that twice. Oh, it's something. I'll get rid of that. It says I do not do board work or no electronics, comma. So I have no idea. No, I have no idea no I have no idea what each exact motherboard component component issues are. I make it very clear.

I have no no no idea. No idea. Okay, let's read it again. So his comment was the malfunctioning was not what was described, but that's good, since I know now what the issue is and how to fix it.

Still interested to see if these JRP only fault. Finally, I have a CH motherboard I can use, build using an aftermarket case. Thing is clean as a whistle like the photos all right and then i i put in these are not these are described the best i can best i cannot best i can i do not do any board work or no electronics so i have no idea what each exact motherboard component issues are i make it very clear in the main title that each is a defective donor motherboard this means exactly what it implies i'll have some issue but i never know what each is. As a donor motherboard,

it also lets you know it may never fully work, but it's for taking parts off of that are found good and used for another motherboard you have. I am honest and detailed. I'm off a little bit, but I can fix something.

Oh, I think I said that twice somewhere. I don't know what it is. All I have is this. But I never know what it is. So, I'm going to take that line out of there I'm as Honest and detailed Every listing every listing as possible.

So I think I fixed it. Let's read it again. Okay. Oops. Oh no. Oh, I hit it by accident. Oh, no. Oh, I hit it back. Ah, rats. I just totally got that up now.

Ah, I hit the wrong button. Is it still there? No, I lost that. Shoot. I was doing something and I clicked on it. Oh, man. I'm going to have to redo it again. Ah, I'm going to have to redo it all over again.

I was right there, too. I was doing something and I clicked on it by accident. All right. We'll fix it. I'll do it again. All right. So now I have to redo it again. I forget.

This is... I describe... each... listing... I'll set it up this way this time. As honest and detailed as possible

so I have to redo this again and then you get 500 words so I'm going to use the 500 words which I do because most of the time the seller the buyer get 500 words. So I'm going to use the 500 words. Which I do. Because most of the time the seller. The buyer. Leaves 500 words.

So now I had to redo those things. I clicked on something and it kicked it out. So. I'm as honest and detailed as possible. I do not. Do. Motherboard. Work. Or. I do not do motherboard work or know electronics. Oops. I put right in the main title, defective donor. This lets the buyer know in caps

it does not work for whatever reason. I like this one better, actually. This is... It implies something it implies some components are not working. this is defective defective

implies some components are not working I would have I would have no idea which do or do not work. They ship at random with different issues. A donor tells a buyer it may never be fixed.

So it can only be used to take parts off of that they find working like this one much better actually to use on another mother board they have. It's actually done better. Alright.

It says I am as honest and detailed as possible. I do not do motherboard work or no electronics. I put right in the main title defective donor. This lets the buyer know in, it does not work for whatever reason. Defective implies some components are not working. Some or many. I didn't quite get this. Defective implies some components are not working.

I would have no idea which do or which do not. Defective implies some many components are not working. I would have no idea which do or do not. Which do or do not. I'll need that out of there now. Which do or do not. I'm going to take that out of there. Some. Which do or do not work. I think I'll leave it at that. They ship at random with different issues. Donor tells the buyer it may never be fixed so it only can be used to take parts off of that they find working to use on another motherboard. I'm as honest and detailed as possible. I do not do motherboard work or know electronics. I put right in the main title, Defective Donor. This lets the buyer know, in caps, it does not work for whatever reason. Defective implies some components are not working.

I would have no idea which do or do not work they ship at random with different issues donor tells it by it may never be fixed so it only can be used to take parts off of of that that they find working to use on another motherboard they have. I'm just going to leave it at that. So that's my reply. And then what I do is I send it to the buyer. Because, because, because, because. I want them to see that. Select my item.

Here. select my item and I gave it to him for a discount too so if you're gonna if you want to keep buying from me you can't't, I mean, you can be honest, sure, you can be as honest as you want with your feedback, but I feel that it's kind of giving like a dig to me, and I don't want to deal with it, I'm not gonna be digged, so I declined his offer, so I have two orders easy peasy which is cool I'm gonna take a break today so look at those I gotta do something else here so I had to pay my truck, which luckily, I was able to muster up some sales, to do that, which is really fun, so I just basically live, I live by the sale, people live by paycheck to paycheck,

I live sale to sale basically, someday maybe I'll get ahead, but I doubt I ever will, I really don't need money, I'm not a money guy at all, I just need to pay the bills, I have a little small mortgage on the house. I'd like to get that paid off.

Just simple small stuff. So I can just keep playing around with stuff. And I got to get myself out of debt. I'm in a debt consolidation. To have all this fun stuff. And to do all these videos. And all this stuff. I had to have gotten it somewhere.

So I'm two years into that national debt consolidation. And then from there I'll finally be debt free. And I won't be needing any more credit card charges. It's kind of like I always say, I put myself through at home gaming school. So in order to go to school, you have to take out Loans and all that To learn

Basically what I did And I also have another student loan I gotta pay From before So I got Two orders So that's my little Thing this morning Alright so That's my little thing this morning.

So I check every single feedback that comes in, good or bad. Lots of times I'll get good feedback that's really not good. Sometimes buyers are such in a rush to leave a bad feedback about something that happened that they do right on the positive because you get a seven day wait period for negative and neutral so normally I can just resolve something but if there's a buyer that just vindictive about it or I just didn't handle it correctly then they'll help blast me with a negative on the positive and of course i see it and then i reply to it i always reply to anything that i see that's not that needs another side to the story it's very important and also other buyers will wait that's till that seven days and then blast me with a negative a neutral

and then of course i replied to that and if i see those i always bring those to my youtube page because i like to share i share the good and the bad i don't have a lot of bad but sometimes i do and then it usually gets really bad because sometimes i just you know don't really handle things that correctly especially if it's something that I didn't do wrong, or they said I did and I didn't. So that doesn't go well with me. All right, so another one of those. Another metal frame.

I sold another metal frame for... That's the reason why printers aren't printing. I've been selling lots of those lately The inner metal I've got to find some more For the Not 1.6 The original Xbox 01 through 03 So

I won't do that So that's just my two orders which is fine I'm gonna do lots of fun videos today though I want to compare those three boards I told you about earlier alright so that was a pretty long morning alright so 36 minutes cool alright so enjoy the new year day there's really nothing special about a new year day really just the people getting.

Over their hangovers. Again I've been clean and sober since 2011. So thank God I don't have to worry about that. So just recover. And now we're into that lull. Now we're going into the deep dark. Of winter. And no holidays or nothing.

Until. I don't know. Spring really. I mean there's. Valentine's don't know, spring, really. I mean, there's Valentine's Day, but that's not really. For some people, it's fun. So, we're going to hunker down, which I always do anyway, and just get into this big leg of the winter. All right, so I'll pick a system.

I finished Sega yesterday. I'm going to pick something else today. I might go up to technology and go to Xbox One. Alright, so I'll talk to you later on. Alright, have a good day. And recover well.
