Hot glue is non conductive so it should not mess anything up. Out of curiosity, what game did you try?

Edit: also if you don't mind what method are you using to connect it to the television?

Probably would not hurt to pop it open and look for obvious problems. Capacitors can bulge on top or leak electrolytic fluid on the circuit board.

Look for cracks in the motherboard under where the plugs go in on the back, or any parts where somebody might push into.

Also if there's a bunch of crud in there you can clean it out.

Edit: yes you are doing it right. Put the cartridge in, turn it on.

fecal–oral transmission is the major route through which pathogenic strains of the bacterium cause disease

A report from the Bucks County Department of Health after an inspection on March 27 cited health code violations at the restaurant, including employees not having "hands clean and properly washed."

How about I tell you why I'm done engaging with you.

This is YOUR quote,

Wait a second, are there many Christian terrorists? I’m asking this because I haven’t looked at statistics on other religions besides Islam ( I don’t know any in other religions).

I DONT KNOW ANY OTHER RELIGIONS--what?

Also here is a direct quote by ME

because it is written from the perspective desired by wealthy conservative donor

Misleading, mainly because it is written from the perspective desired by wealthy conservative donor.

It would be nice if we didn't allow "news" from right wing think-tanks.

Much of its funding has come from conservative and Republican-connected large donors, especially via Donors Trust. Chris Krug is the foundation's president.

Last I've heard President Joe Biden told the two parties to work it out, and for the employers to remember their recent years profit. (Summarized while tipsy)

Looks like a Hubzilla instance, which is part of the Fediverse. So it is a post from there i guess.

 

TL:DR

$45 'stable' release, comes with same unfulfilled promises from 8+ years ago.

I really enjoyed this game, I have over 1000 hours on steam and have no idea how much I played on ps4. Hell, the reason I built my pc was to play this game (and custom cod zombies). That being said, I would not pay $45 for the current 'stable' release, probably worth it under $10.

My main beef is $45. Thats how much you charge for a finished game, but this is far from finished. Their own roadmap includes crossplay, weather upgrades, a wardrobe, NPC's, and bandits. This roadmap is 18 months long, if they can deliver all of their promises the game will be 12 years old then. (They will not)

NPC's and bandits are especially interesting to me, because I bought this game for pc in 2017, not too long after reading this blog post

This is just about how every alpha has gone since then, big youtube and twich promotions, lots of promises, and then, a small, incrimental update.

Last, but not least, the current game kind of sucks. The hitboxes are better than when they first updated the UNITY engine after a16, but still shit. There is a spot in the zombie's shoulder that if you hit them with an arrow, the game chokes for a couple of frames then they do a cool spin. Each and every poi has invisible barriers (and has since a16) which cause agro, so walk in room, back out, slowly hit with (object). Skill progression is tied behind xp based points, reading rng magazines, and there is a perk that increases your loot, but there are other perks to increase the specific magazine loot.

Really didn't play much since a17, but I've played a few hours of each alpha since. This 1.0 is no different, but I cannot get over that price.
