Windows re-install

I've been having a bit of trouble for a couple of days, my PC would have significant trouble when I was in Windows explorer. I found WE was taking up a ton of CPU, so I installed MalwareBytes and found it complaining about a "malware website" being hit from a temporary Ruby.exe install.

I really didn't feel like doing a ton of spelunking looking for malware, and besides my install has gotten kind of messy over the last few months, so I just re-installed Win7.

The problems are gone, but it turns out the complaints were from my paid VPN client, so it's possible I didn't actually have any malware. If I did this would be the first time, and I didn't find any actual smoking guns, just some irritating behavior. I just excluded the VPN client warnings on MWB and got on with it.

[Dragonfly DIY] New headlight

Pretty much all bicycle headlights available in the US are pretty horrible for road use. They're almost all conical beam (like a flashlight) which means that they throw a lot of light above the horizon where it can glare into the eyes of oncoming drivers. 20 years ago when bicycle headlights were dim, pathetic incandescent bulbs with a couple of C cells, this wasn't really a problem, but these days with high power LED headlights approaching (or even exceeding) the brightness of automobile headlights, it's a case of the law simply not keeping up (partially because bicycles are largely considered toys in the US, not serious forms of transportation).
