Gooday Gaming Guests - Ground Hog Day Wednesday 7/9/2025

Episode Date: July 9, 2025

Today is the shortest day of the year on record due to the moon. I used my Meta Quest Xbox 3 in my bed last night.

Good morning, everyone. It is now 7 9. I'm sorry. It's 7 a.m Well, actually 6 56. I've listened on the weather this morning for some reason There's an anomaly where today is the shortest day of the year. Oh On record, I'm not sure what that means something about the moons in a different position and thus in the earth spinning faster than normal So the shortest day of the year Just a little position and the earth spinning faster than normal. So the shortest day of the year. Just a little fun fact I just heard. So I'll put that in my little note there. Today is July 9th, 2025. We had some pretty good thunder boomers overnight. We hardly ever get them here that much here in Westleigh. The whole Rhode Island, we had lots of storms,

nothing as crazy as down in Texas and stuff, but we can get them. They're possible, especially if you're up in the middle of Rhode Island, anything up north is more prone for really severe stuff. We've had a couple of tornadoes, not this year yet, but last year I think we had like eight of them. So the climate change has definitely affected us here on the East Coast. Although I still say that over here in the East Coast where we are, it's probably about the safest place in the country,

barring any hurricanes which we haven't had in 20 years. So it's a well overdue for that. The hurricane season's already starting out pretty crazy so who knows. So let's see what's going on. Yesterday I did all I went in the back of my yard and in between my fence sandwich I went through the jungle cleared a path of course I videoed it and videoed everything it's fun. It's the chronicle in my life so that's why I like to do it. I invested in a TV, a small little TV for Prime sale. I like Prime video and I like to set up a Prime so I got a Prime TV, a Fire TV, just a small one. And then I also got Luna controller. They were all on really good sales. So we're gonna see about Luna, check out doing there. And then yesterday what I did,

oh actually last night, all I was doing, something else with my computers, some other computers I'm looking at. We did a little bit of video working on the HP computer. Pretty cool, DV4, it's pretty neat. It's got an i3 in it. I had two of them I've got one completely set up ready to go so that's pretty awesome

probably resell it Windows 7 ish those are Windows 7 systems Windows 7 was really good good era of gaming systems the Windows was really good such a big jump from XP to Vista to Windows 7. That was a big awe factor. I'm waiting for Windows 12. Got some computers that have got plenty of RAM. You gotta have at least 16 gigabytes. So. All right, so we had somebody ask me about an order yesterday, and I set it up for him, then he never came through. So not sure what happened with that but all right so Etsy where Etsy oh so last night what I did was I took

my new Xbox meta quest headset and I put it up in my bed so if you've seen any of my lock videos look at project journeyman you can see me in my lock bed. I'm gonna do some more of that. So using a VR headset while you're lying down is kinda hard. I was able to do it and I was able to move the screen that you can see inside. It's like seeing a movie screen inside of your VR.

And I was able to play a game, pretty good. But the problem is that VR headsets so heavy it just pushes on your face But it's really cool. I like the concept the way I got it in my bed Although the VR didn't save charge that long I already died Maybe about an hour I can do it doesn't seem to really affect me lying down while I'm in the dark. So I'm gonna set up like Prime Video and Max and all those. I can basically watch a movie through the VR headset with the screen, because it's not,

it's the screen that's further away. And then around you is more of VR Atmosphere it's in the space or something. I don't quite figure how to do that. We'll go out stuff We're definitely gonna keep it. I think it's gonna work for me. I only usually stay up for like an hour So so either I play a game or I can watch a movie In my loft bed lying down at the VR set pretty interesting by like It's about what I expected. It's a little better than I was hoping for, so that's pretty cool. Alright, so, and that'll be my only Xbox for now. And I only have, there's only two games

that I downloaded, I mean that I purchased that are, you can only do cloud gaming through those. And so they're cool games. The Outlaws, Star Wars Outlaws, and I have the Hogwarts. Both of those are I can use my own. And then I can use anything else that's cloud gaming under Game Pass. I don't think I'll keep Game Pass after it's over. In the actual three months.

But for now, it's there. All right, so we went to months but for now it's there. Alright so we went to Etsy nothing going on there and now I'm using my new little mic I got my little cordless mics now so I put the other thing up for sale for parts because I broke it it was my Yeti blue mic it was really big and bulky so I'm actually having these little mics it's a lot easier for me to cruise around I'm doing my thing So

Maybe somebody will buy that parts I have no idea how you fix it because I can't really see what you've taken apart It needs the USB port replaced if it got smashed There's my kept phone and I kept saying that I kept meaning to take the cord off and I didn't. And I finally broke. Alright, so we're looking at RSS feed. I had one download yesterday. Colombia, Denmark, oh there's a new one, I've had Denmark, heller up, heller up, Denmark. Moscow, Colombia, and Ashburn is always there for me. Pretty awesome. So Denmark's a new one. A little red dot.

It's the message in a bottle over the internet ocean. Wherever it may go. I'm always doing this consistently each morning while I'm waking up. Seeing what's going on for the day. Oh, so yesterday we also started listening to a lot more stuff on e-bank. And we had a big sale. We started a big sale They had a 20% off coupon and another 10 or 15% as a sale So we're like 40% off most stuff See if it's what that's gonna do

Let's go to YouTube is also climbing. I've been promoting more. I'm probably about Probably spent my $100 I made to while with more promotions. But it's helping me grow a little bit here which is awesome. 48,660 subscribers. So we're cruising up. Is there a micro SD card on the EverDrive? Is there a micro SD card on the Everdrive? Oh, I was talking about the Everdrive. This one, I don't think it does. This one, this one is all internal. This one is all internal.

I listed a few things. I mean, I did a couple videos with Gameboy Color with the Everdrive. So... Yeah, it doesn't have that. It doesn't have the little SD card sticking out of the top. It's a small little Everdrive thingy. It's a small little ever drive thingy So let's see. So yes, we said a couple of those videos HB pavilion I had a few views on that I worked on that I promoted that doing some $5 $10 promotions So I also did it so we also learned that with YouTube you can know I can no longer take my videos and Post them to my community, which is really weird.

I don't know why they did that. So I have to go on my phone and I can't even upload a video to a post. All I can do is text or pictures and I can do questions. I can do a poll. So Isaiah, we'll do something fun because yesterday I did Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advanced. So I made a post asking, which would you prefer, the Advanced? So far I've shown 75% and Color 25%. So that's something different for me to do. I can do those all the time, too.

Giving a little, uh, deciding what you think is better. I like the color better. The advance is too weirdly small. But I do have both of those listed. So we're climbing. My revenue is $31.54. So we've gone up a little bit. View hours, views rather are 165k, watch time has gone

up a little bit, 656. So we're getting some hours and it doesn't really reflect in the ribbon too much. I've never seen it go any pretty much further than where we're at. The average duration is 31 seconds. It's my bugaboo, my doom, as I should say. Video not monetized. Oh yeah, that was a while ago. It's my bugaboo, my doom, as I should say. Video not monetized. Oh yeah, I have a lot of...

Let's... And we had 167,443 views in June, which is my best. Been doing lots of flash 15 seconds, which if I'm looking down now those get lots of views. Flash 15 seconds for my backyard and also for I saw I take my long video and I break into three different videos now. Been doing that since last month when I didn't promote it all. It really seemed to help out in the new ways so you just got to keep mixing it up here Uh with your videos at least that's what I do. I gotta do a one-on-one

Update of how my videos and stuff are going. I'll try to get that done this week Um, I just haven't had time to get to it. I can do it outside but I need power And I don't have wi-fi out there so I can't really do it out there. So growing my goal is to get to the 50,000 subscribers. So we're going to promote a little bit more. Alright, let's see what's going on with eBay. Running action. Couple things.

Let's see what we got here. $35. I just can't take that well. So if I'm going to offer something and then you're going to put it so much further down for a, for a, for a, an offer, I'm just not going to do it, man. I just can't do it. $8 I'm on my take though. It's been pretty slow. I have one sale. Let's check out my feedback.

Great cell communication fast shipping, Super Nintendo original power supply AC adapter. Oh yeah, it's the adapter. Okay. Then I bought two little laptop compact flash to see to 44 pin IDE for my laptops. And then I also had something that is lost in the mail so far. Let's see where it is. Let's see this is a Chromebook that should have been out a long time ago. Stuck and it's not moving. July 9th. July 9th processing. So it's also getting processed again at the facility. 6.09 a.m. So we've got a new update so we will get back in track something happened to it got lost a little bit Well as long as the tracking is updated by now, so that's pretty cool. Let's see we have one offer So we got one of those offers. So a couple sales, a couple small little thingies.

And we started our sales yesterday. That's pretty much it this morning everyone. Let's see about 13 minutes in So today we're going to I got an appointment to go to this morning After that, we're not gonna do anything outside today. I got my trees and next from my backyard projects to do and then I have And we'll do some... Oh, I'm gonna go back to... We're gonna go back to Retron 5.

I've got a motherboard. Two little main boards to sell. At least one anyway. So we'll put some more parts for that up there. And then we'll just start listing more things. I have an HP of those two NV DV4s. I've got a second one that it purports the list and some other stuff and then we'll go on this and do a PS2 Slim. We're gonna start getting a lot of stuff for that list. That and Sega Saturn. I'm gonna do a whole bunch.
