Last night was quite the adventure in networking. I played Mario Kart: Double Dash in LAN mode, with my friend Jon who lives about 200km away in London, Ontario. No, we don’t have a cable that long – we used some very cool software called Warp Pipe.
Warp Pipe was easy enough to setup, however the performance was lacking. On my end most of the games stuttered quite a bit. I guess this is the price to pay for putting your packets on the bit bad ‘net instead of keeping them safe on the LAN. Still I thought that the performance would be better.
Well I was browsing the forums over at the Warp Pipe and it seems like the problem might have been Norton Antivirus on my computer… I guess I’ll just have to try again.

Busier than a bee in a 100 acre clover field
- Work work work work
- Doing training at work (sucks)
- Didn’t go to the extremely cool WWNC, now regretting it, but going to the next one even it it’s located at the centre of the earth
- Succeeded in letting people down
- Busiest four day week EVER was last week. Actually, it was probably my busiest week of work ever, period.
- Saw Resident Evil: Apocalypse, it was OK, fun to see TONS of locations around Toronto turned into “Racoon City”
- Saw Shaun of the Dead, it was hysterically funny while being gory at the same time, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. It’s getting a North American theatrical release now, so go see it!
