The World Is Flat: Kumasi, Ghana


A big shout out to Anane Deco for this next flatland video!



Isn't this what flatland is all about? Cruising around, checking out new spots, having a good time, and just showing off your skills. Nicely done Anane Deco!

On a personal note, I just loved the scene (about 54 seconds in) where Anane Deco throws down a backyard between traffic, almost as if saying, this is my backyard no cars allowed.

ROM: R-BOX Pro

Before we dive in on updating the firmware of the R-BOX Pro, I wanted to give a little review (or maybe it's an insight into why I'm upgrading the firmware of my R-BOX Pro).

I purchased the R-BOX Pro, thinking that a new Octo-core (8 Core cpu) would vastly improve my TV viewing experience over my aging Quad-core (4 core cpu) OUYA game console/TV set-top box. In fact on paper the R-BOX Pro outperforms almost all existing android TV Set-top boxes on the market, with the exception of the NVIDIA Shield. With a price of $74 U.S. dollars it's quite inexpensive, seeing as 4 years ago I paid $125 U.S. dollars for my OUYA.
