  1. Yes you should care. You shouldn't use unencrypted. If someone wants to they can get everything you have on your computer... You don't care? Do you file your taxes online, online banking, Purchase with a credit card etc...

    There is a history of all transaction you do on a website, in your cookies, temp files typed url's etc...your password that you have autmatically saved are not deeply encrypted and are easily recoverable... eg if I have remote access to your machine I can pullevery password Internet explorer or firefox has cached(saved)... do you use a different password for everything you use, banking websites, email etc....

    using an unencrypted or WEP encrypted wifi is really bad news.

     

    Most companies I work for ban people from using anything other than a wpa2 encrypted wifi. and some have even banned all wifi. Even wpa2 has been broken but only when using preshared keys.

     

    Here is an article I wrote some time ago for more information. fairly basic info but gives you something to look at...

     

    Wifi Encryption

  2. I have one when I got my last ofah renewal. It does work for both I can tell you that, but dito on the wind. Works best with no wind. Keep in mind the pads once used once are garbage. once you open the pack and light it up your tossing it out, so bring enough with you.

  3. Yah, I am surprised about the amount of attention this got here and thanks to all the supporters. I am happy for the suppot but I think my options are and were limited to the three little check boxes the second she wrote the ticket. Anyway, I am hoping I get a reasonable justice of the peace or whoever it is that I see whenever I see them.

     

    I dunno, maybe she really thought I was really doing public danger driving in the city with one headlight. Maybe she just got reamed out by her boss to give more tickets, Maybe someone in a grey corolla ran over her cat when she was a child, maybe she thought I looked at her funny, maybe it was that time of the month. I really don't know. She was determined to give me that ticket though I can tell you that much. She didn't give me any chance or anything. Before I knew what was going on she had it written up and it was in my hand, and I was trying to plead my case for all of 5 seconds before she was off.

     

    I am angry about it, yes. It does serve to taint my already not so high opinion of certain various police departments and there procedures. I don't think it was right. I really think she could have given me a warning, or followed me home, or told me to change it and come in to the department or something. I really don't even see what the big deal is to be honest with you. Its not like my car is invisible in the city with one headlight. Its not like I can't see where I am going or like I can't see pedestrians. I mean the whole point of mandating cars to have 2 headlights on a car is so that if one goes out you can see with the other.

     

    I think we should just put this one to rest until I go to court and deal with it. I'll be certain to update everyone on the proceedings for sure, and thanks again for everyone support, especially the PM's.

  4. I think some people of a certain skin color would be surprised to see what nation's support this practice financially, pollitically and by importing these animals and by products... I would suggest watching the video. It goes far beyond what some would think on the surface may seem restricted to people that look a certain way.

     

    :)

  5. Well you know what they say... Burnt out headlights are like Pot. They are a gateway crime to more serious crimes like burnt out tail light... Next comes murder and running moonshine.

     

    On my way to the court house in a few minutes... I don't think anything happens today, just get a trial date. Why I can't do this by phone or online is beyond me.

  6. I am sure I'll lose this one, maybe get off with half a fine I guess. It wasn't during daylight hours as I was on my way home from work and it was just after sunset. Anyway, like I said peaved, but what can I do. Just wanted to give people a heads up that may be in the area to check your lights.

  7. We will see what happens I guess. I am gonna go in tomorrow morning before work to the arrange a court date thingy. It opens at 8:30 so if I go in early enough I might be able to sneak into work without anyone noticing, and only lose a single days pay when I go to the actual trial.

  8. Its hard to find headlights all the same color. I had bought a pair of the only ones in the right size they had for my car at ctc. they are slightly whiter/bluer than the originals. I guess I better not drive with one slightly yellowy standard one and one slightly brighter/blueier one. I am bound to get nabbed for that on my way home tonight. hehe
