Gooday Gaming Guests - Ground Hog Day Thursday 4/24/2025

Episode Date: April 24, 2025

I am working on Atari 400 Computer System.

Good morning everyone. It is now 5.30. It's April 24th. Today's Thursday I believe. Yeah, today's Thursday. I'm already going into a weekend soon. So yesterday I did my first backyard mow. Of course I use a Ryobi electric mower that I've had forever. Three or four years probably I think, or more. I couldn't imagine ever using a gas mower again because electric is just so easy, especially for me, it's just, I have a small backyard. Even if you had a bigger backyard, you could still get a couple batteries

and do it that way, but with the electric mower, it never stalls. You can quick start it just to do a little spot again. If you move something, then you can quick start it and then just do that little spot. It's all the things that make it so much easier. I'm sure getting an electric car is probably as much fun as having an electric mower,

but I could never afford one of those. But I'm sure once you got an electric mower but I don't like I could never afford one of those but I'm sure once you got electric car you wouldn't definitely want to go backwards to a gas car anymore we do have a charging station here in West Delhi it's not a Tesla one it's just so someone's like someone actually put one in I don't really see anybody ever over there but popular electric cars are here in West L.A. but I'd get one if I could afford it or someone to give me one could be perfect for me electric car because I don't go anywhere except for the post office and back pretty much and to the store so that would really fit

right in what I do but for now we just use my electric mower. So we do my first I spend about a good hour and a half in the back a video there and then of course in the front I don't video just because the neighbors think I'm crazy enough as it is so I don't want them to see me video on everything even though I do anyway. It's really funny. and everything even though I do anyway. Alright and then after that, then I was playing around with the desktop and I didn't really do any of the videos yesterday. I was just doing other stuff, orders I had. So my day was, sometimes I just don't really get to my desktop to do stuff but I did pull out my Dell XPS 500 and I upgraded I put

the compact flash from IDE to compact flash and now I'm just setting up Windows 98 but I gotta format that compact flash because it won't format for me My other compact EVO 510 I used I did XP and that one actually formatted for me So we're gonna figure out how to get that formatted. I think it's fat 32 I believe the compact flash So let's see what's going on this morning flash so let's see what's going on this morning see tomorrow the 25th oh yeah days go on the remaster comes out excited about that I may pick it up tomorrow if I can afford it I'm not really sure yet it's only extra ten bucks

I did redownload a new version I mean the on my ps5 I just haven't upgraded yet to the new version so one of my favorite ones switch to I heard that they're they're just overwhelmed by the amount of orders for switch to so the odds of trying to get one I don't have the $500 anyway but the odds of getting try to get one is probably very little and of course You know what's gonna happen. It's just It's probably already instant. It's probably already up. I bet people have pre-ordered already swapped

Taking it to the eBay and doubled the price So a thousand bucks, but I can say that when the first PS5 came out I paid the eBay price to get one I won't do it for it to switch though I mean I like switches but nothing I'm gonna jump out plus there's really no games right out right away that I'm aware of except for some sort of a Mario thing so if it was coming out with a new Zelda game or something, then I might have really pushed it, tried to find it. But I think the original Zelda is gonna get remastered.

Of course, that's the going way to do things. So, I'm sure Switch 2 will have the Breath of the Wild as remastered in some way. Okay, so let's see the news. Nothing really stood out yesterday. Oh, the draft's coming out. I forgot about the NFL draft. So that's coming out with today or tomorrow. So, Patriots just got a few picks.

So, we have a whole new new team to coach everything We had one last year, but that was a crash and burn a year It was a really bad year In the year before when the last year Bill Belichick was even worse So you can only get better on one of these days We'll get things but I think we're oh we brought back which McCall as office coordinator, so that's pretty awesome So let's see we can do this time around McDaniels so I'm excited that he's back

Now we can have a real team again, maybe Although they did get rid of the really good guy they sent him to Dallas that I really liked Milton Milton jr He's gonna be phenomenal. He's gonna take over first place over there at Dallas. Alright so let's see what we got going on. So I'm not seeing anything in the news so we'll just jump right into my Etsy which has been Nada. I haven't had any orders at all. I'm gonna see if there's another I'm gonna see if I sale ended or I get some visits but I don't really don't get any I haven't got any orders in about a week now. Etsy is only my little small I call it

my side quest if I get an order just one order maybe every so often compared to hundreds from eBay. So let's see, they changed the way its dashboard is set up now. Can't see the feedback. Okay, alright so let's go on to RSS feed. I had a few download yesterday. Always appreciate anybody that wants to come hang out with me for a little bit. And I try to mix up the morning, get stuff to do. Also we did another overnight

nightly project journeyman sites and sounds, but I think it kicked out again early on me. And the last couple of them the night before was only nine hours. I think I saw it only kicked only worked on for six hours. Um, I try to run my, um, I run, uh, Tik TOK at the same time on a different phone, but that one kicks off right away because it says no activity. Because I'm just kind of, you know, I've got my thing in the background.

The mood set. But it's just not, it's not saying I'm TikTok. So we had three downloads last night. 52 in the last 30 days. Manola, awesome. Germany, Orlando. So I appreciate anybody that comes in. See my message in a bottle over the internet ocean. Which is always fun. Try to... At some point I'll stop doing some other

um, podcasts. I'll get back to doing some direct gaming once midday. It's coming soon. I just haven't had time to... Been doing a lot of other stuff, but we'll get some more up. We'll start with PS1, I'll bring my... So there are all the podcasts already there, but I'll... Not redo them, but I'll do new ones with me and my buddy Zippy. I'll bring him in as my co-host, and I talk to him directly, and of course he speaks back

to you, so that's pretty cool. And we'll go through each system I'll do more in depth this time around We'll start doing that this week maybe So that will help build up my podcast again But I appreciate everybody coming in for the morning Groundhog Day. All right, so let's go on to YouTube Let's see how many hours that kicked off on me last night. Let's see what we got for hours on Project Journeyman.

So I made 34,084 subscribers. So I had a few. My views for my Project Brand Journeyman went way down to 357 Although my electric mower the short was at 1k. So that's pretty cool. So I did a short after I finished a whole lawn just showing my Results of how it finished. I had four project journeymans overnight I had four Project Journeymans overnight. Thumbs up, yay. I get lots of thumbs down too.

Oh no, it was 10 hours. It was 10 hours and 46 so a wonderful night. Oh cool. I had one time where I had Project Journeyman at 3000 views. I haven't seen any of that since then. But I run them every night. I always come up with a set up a new mood, which includes a new code that I work with.

I'm trying to learn about Raspberry Pi coding, not actually me doing it, but at least giving the idea to my buddy Zippy, and then he comes up with a code, and then I run it, and if it's something I like, I can learn now a little bit how to manipulate the code to make it better for myself for what I want. So it's fun. So it's kind of like learning how to code while I'm doing another project.

So that's my scene, background scene. It's hard to come up with ideas each night trying to keep it different. I want to get into some very simple animation on my scene in the back there on the wall but I haven't quite got the concept of getting my buddy Zippy to give me something simple yet. Once I learn or take more time I'll get some some simple animation oh so let's see any comments no comments revenue hasn't changed a bit even $28.47 oh definitely getting one of those lawn mowers oh yes yeah This is, oh yeah.

I have never looked back since owning this. I have never looked back since owning this. And that was one of my guys comments often. I get one from someone, I get someone that, talking about the lawnmower I just did yesterday. I was just saying how awesome electric is. They're expensive but I got it when it was, I used one, refurbished at Home Depot so it wasn't that bad. And it's been good mirror sense

Alright, so let's see so we'll go through I gotta go through my What I do is The next morning, which is now I'll go through my project journeyman, and I do what I call session feed marks session feed in prints rather and will Pick some times in my overnight hours when I'm still looking for something supernatural, that's why I'm doing it, but I haven't quite seen anything yet.

I think that's, so I breeze through my 10 hours and try to pick some spots of me moving around and doing anything that seems out of the normal. I basically sleep in one position. I do turn a little bit but not not and of course my bed is just a little twin and it's a loft bed. I'm up on a loft bed. I've been up there since oh god no I don't know eight years or so now because I needed the space for my room. My room is actually, it's a game, I call it a gaming time machine.

So it's just shelves to the ceiling, just filled with all kinds of gaming stuff, everything. And vintage computing all around me. And that's where I live. Pretty much my room. If you don't like clutter, you definitely won't like mine. But I try to organize it. It is organized in some way. But my loft bed is where I sleep, which I have always slept. So I decided to make that into a little,

call it my little pod up there. So I turned it into some sort of a little overnight thing for fun. And again, just looking for something supernatural, just tracking a little way to track my life a little bit here. Pretty cool. All right, so let's go to eBay. Again, just looking for something supernatural. Just tracking The way to track my life a little bit here pretty cool. Alright, so let's go to eBay. I had a Got a few orders overnight. I'm hearing some seeing some stuff about oh I heard Fallout the first season of fallout was phenomenal if you ever never seen fallout

The game you know the game fallout Fallout, but the series, it's on Prime, I think it's Prime. It was so much fun. So I heard that Fallout 2 is coming out. It's the second season. I can't wait. I highly suggest that. I started watching a little bit of Last of Us, but I just haven't been able to get into it. The second season is out, so it doesn't really matter. It'll always be there, so I can watch whatever I want. Now or ten years from now, it doesn't matter. I tried not to hear what the spoiler is on that scene, how they changed it in the series. I don't want to know, so please nobody tell me. But I know it was different. I heard something about a twist so Anyway, because that whole thing is based on that scene pretty much the rest of the game so

But for now I started watching it and I just couldn't I don't know like the characters that they picked the actual actors they picked for the characters and Since then I kind of never really back to it, but I might though We'll see. Oh So fallout. Yeah, the the second season. I can't wait. I'm so excited about that It's the first time I actually sat down not the whole and watched the whole series. I Sometimes I have movies that I like like I sometimes I have movies that I like like

The movie I'm watching now I just Stranger things of course which is awesome the last one I had still haven't finished it Watching it. I watched maybe a half hour or so and then I stopped I didn't realize how good that one is that one they must had a big budget for that movie Well, goodness did that one ever was ever? Big budget for that movie. Oh my goodness. Did that one ever, ever was ever completely upgraded from the last, the other ones? Alright, so I got, uh, wait I'm confused. Which model am I buying?

Oh man. Should I buy, I don't know. I don't know. Uh, I am so confused. Myself. I am so confused Myself I'm so confused myself you show this guy with this PS For slim Seems like he has the wrong thing inside of his one of the

Slim models but I just can't fit in. I'm so good. You showed me a power supply unit. Where is that from? Does that have an issue? You want to replace it? You showed me a power supply unit. Where is that from? Does that have the issue? Does it have the issue? So now again, cost, eBay is where I, first thing in the morning, first thing I'm doing now is going through all my messages. Hello, I'm looking for a power switch for the Sega Saturn.

This is a gray button. Hmm. Alright, so I need to see. There are a few. There are. This is Sega Saturn. There are a few type. Is it...

The switch with the grey button. There is a few types. Show me the inside of your Saturn. Now we have some damage control. Hey, I received a weed today and it doesn't work. Any day of the Y I thought. Each motherboard ships fully working. Make sure you put the Bluetooth board and Wi-Fi board back Seated correctly. Seated firm. These need to be on to. These need to be on it I remove them so for sure also what do you mean by not working? Alright, so I figured out what that is. I haven't had any Wii motherboard problems in a long time. But it's bound to happen sooner or later.

A bio wants to cancel an order. So somebody ordered something and they want to cancel it. Ummm, I would have liked to sort that. So that one's sold. So we're not dead. Let's not do that yet. Let's do this first before we do that. I have three orders, one cancellation. Let's do this first before we do that. I have three orders, one cancellation.

Maybe I sold something of a decent amount. That looks like I did. That's pretty cool. So we'll find out what that is in a second. Okay. So let's get that out. So send out a little deposit to my bank. And take an extra $2 out every day to do that, which is a bummer. You can do it in one to three days, usually it's one day after. But then I'm always behind them bills or rate rate on the custom of bills. So I

Have to do it expressive all the time so they get me for the extra two dollars every time which is a bummer All right, let's see what this is all right, so see details So he wants to cancel an order. So we'll have to do that. So we fund him. Alright let's see what happens. He must have had a big order, which is awesome let's see feedback nothing changed very quick shipping as described what did I sell that looks like it's worth more

I don't know oh I sold an Atari 400 cool yay and I sold Atari 400 power supply only basic in game cover off powers video it's international Australia I'm shipping that to Australia that's why so I really didn't make that I was wondering why it was so much because he's paying for the shipping costs is what it's another probably another hundred bucks for shipping costs nothing that I

Can can Do but I often buy things from Australia and it's like an extra hundred bucks even if something small So he's probably bought an extra hundred fifty something. So that's my big order for the day, so it's pretty awesome. So we're going to figure out a couple things, damage control. I'm not sure why his Wii's not working. All them worked. So hopefully they'll reply back and let me know what's going on with that.

So that's my morning, guys and girls and everyone else. Thanks for coming in. Stop by my YouTube. I'll do some I'm gonna test more wheeze today and we'll do some other stuff like that. We'll pick some projects. Alright so I'll talk to you later. Alright bye.
