Anybody else's kids get bit by the #KPOPDEMONHUNTERS bug? They've been watching the movie almost daily and are now asking me to #3dprint stuff from the movie for them. 😅
I do very much enjoy using the 3D printer to make things, so I'm not complaining. 😁

I have a confession to make. My guilty pleasure game is Fortnite. I love playing it with my friends. We always have a great time together. On a slightly different note, I recently watched Ready Player One for the first time and now I SOOOOO want the Back to the Future Delorean Time Machine in Fortnite! I know I have zero clout or influence, but I wanted to put this out into the universe. Epic Games, can we make this happen? Please?

Also it would be super SICK if we could get the Dukes of Hazard General Lee!... And the A-Team van! 😃


How about you guys? What's your favorite guilty pleasure game?


And are there other vehicles from TV or movies you'd like to see in Fortnite? Uncle Rico's Van anyone? 😂

A little over a month ago my AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D died on me. It was still under warranty so I sent it in for an RMA & today AMD sent me back a #Ryzen 9 9950X3D!!! It did take a long time, but AMD went above & beyond honoring their warranty IMO. Thank you very much AMD!!!

A buddy of mine sent me a gift this week that I think will be the perfect thing to wear this weekend when playing Walkabout Minigolf with Fal & J from KobraVR, S1gma-S1x & Chief Jenkins. S1GMA-S1X will be streaming the shananagins live on Twitch Saturday at 1:30pm PDT if you'd like to come hang out.

#firsts For the first time in my 20 years of #PCDIY building, my CPU has died! And it's barely over a year old! Never been OC'd just enabled XMP. Popped it into another system to make sure & it is confirmed; dead. #RIP @AMD @AMDRyzen #Ryzen9 7950X3D

So this morning I woke up and found this! 😃 This milestone is something I've been both hoping for and working for for many years, and it's amazing to finally reach it. Thank you so much to each and every one who has ever watched one of my videos and, of course, to those who have been kind enough to subscribe. I know there hasnt been much of my normal content on the channel in recent months, but my rental duplex renovation is nearing completion, so I should be able to return to making regular content again in the coming weeks. Thank you all so much for your patience during this time, and thank you for your support of the channel and helping me reach this goal. Now, on to 200K and beyond!

Woke up this morning to a message from J with @R informing me someone was posing as me and trying to scam you guys!? Thank you so much @13!! Apparently someone created a bot to reply to EVERYONE who commented on my recent Quest 3/Mamba Gunstock giveaway videos saying they had won and they wanted you to contact them via a telephone number to claim your prize. In the included pictures I've blurred out the number to prevent anyone from trying to contact them.

These replies/comments were only up for 30 or 40 minutes before I was able to remove them, and ban the account from making any other comments on my channel, but I really hope no one was deceived by this.

I just want to make it SUPER CLEAR that when doing a giveaway, I will NEVER contact you via a comment on a video to notify you of a win. NEVER! I use Gleam for this very reason. It requires anyone who enters to provide their email address and that is the ONLY way I will notify the winners; via the email address provided with your entry. In my giveaway announcement videos I always say I will only contact the winner via email, but it looks like in future giveaways I'm going to need to also specify how I will NOT contact you.

As I'm sure most of you know, I also post the winners names here on my community page as well as on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, and while sometimes I will tag the winners on those platforms the ONLY way for a winner to claim their prize is by replying to the email I sent from my channel's official email.

The pictures included with this post are to help you know what to look for to identify a scammer like this, if it happens again in the future. As you can see on this reply to @13 they used my profile picture, but the user name is Maraksot78-1 and not Maraksot78. Also, if you click on that profile name you will see the account was created very recently and that is has NO SUBSCRIBERS; both of these combined are giant red flags letting you know this person is a scammer and you should report them as such.

Again I really hope none of you fell for this attempt by some jerk to scam you out of money or steal personal information. Sadly this is the world we live in and we need to be vigilent, not only for our own good, but to help others in our communities, both online and IRL.

I hope you all are doing well and I wish you all a fantastic 2025 and beyond.
