Honestly, I don't get the problem you're stating with using IP. If you connect 2 machines with Ethernet, assign them both a static IP address on the same subnet, with no gateway or anything, you can easily have them communicate using the IP addresses only. A computer doesn't require internet access to have local network IP connectivity. -- Kusoneko https://kusoneko.moe GPG Fingerprint: E5FD 4F97 502A 0BB3 04F4 4BA1 4405 15F2 4B65 A136 Fediverse: @[email protected] XMPP&E-Mail: [email protected] https://email.is-not-s.ms A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
