Starting To Take Shape

The site is coming along...

As many know this blog was at a standstill when it became overrun with bugs. While I was never able to eliminate these bugs, I did manage to figure out clever ways to circumvent them. It's quite possible these bugs are standard to BLOGGER's code and only become evident after certain tweaking or changes. Whatever the reason for the problems, they seem to be resolved for now (fingers crossed).

I've changed to a new color scheme, which coincidentally I just realized is quite similar to Formula 1's new drivers champion Nico Rosberg's signature color. 

Honestly this must have been done subconsciously, as you'll soon see in upcoming posts (hint,hint).  

There's still so much more that needs to be done before re-launching www.mass-imo.com, but things are starting to take shape.

Getting Ready For 2017

If you've stumbled onto this site and are a bit confused as to whats happening, let me bring you up to speed. Towards the end of 2015, the interface (BLOGGER) for this site (www.mass-imo.com), was beginning to show glitches in the way it displayed content. I spent months trying to find a solution for these glitches and by mid 2016, I had given up. Not only did I give up on finding a solution for these glitches, but the frustration resulted in the decline of this blog.
In an attempt to regain the enthusiasm I once had for this blog, I decided to start it again fresh, which meant I had to delete everything. Those looking for the old content can surf on over to www.bl-een.com, which is where the content was moved too.
Now that I've deleted all traces of the old www.mass-imo.com, hopefully all the glitches and gremlins will have been dealt with, and I can back to blogging.

Bye Bye Xterra

Last picture of Me and my 2000 Nissan Xterra

On October 8th of 2016, I said goodbye to my beloved Nissan Xterra. My new ride is a 2011 Nissan Versa Sedan. Stay tuned as I'm sure there will be some upcoming projects scheduled in the new year.

2005 Yamaha BWS: Strip Down

Just a little update on the Bug-eye's current state and condition. It's sitting in the garage being slowly disassembled. Most of the rear end has been removed, beginning with the seat, fairings, tail light, turn signals, wheel, and engine.  

I ran into issues removing the front fairings which I will document in an upcoming post. Until then I hope these pictures will tie all of you over until then.

ROM: OUYA

Prior to being acquired by RAZOR (July 27, 2015), the OUYA would normally see system updates rolling out every 4 to 6 months. It's been over a year (Nov. 6, 2014) since we've seen a system update to our beloved OUYA set-top box. With no indications from OUYA or RAZOR as to when an update is coming, I've decided to take things into my own hands.

My current problem with the OUYA is that its ROM comes with a proprietary operating system based off Android 4.1 (Jellybean). While this was state of the art back in early 2013, Android 4.1 is no longer being supported by KODI developers. To me, KODI a.k.a. XBMC, is what made the OUYA such an awesome device. So I want to update my OUYA so as to continue being able to use KODI.
