I have a different port for my desktop and my laptop just in-case the router
forgets to check the postmarked address on the packets it receives... at least
it'll know which port to send it to!

Plug it into my mostly broken laptop that has the network card physically
removed and see what's on it

if you can do ethernet instead of usb, this might work:
https://pine64.com/product/star64-model-a-8gb-single-board-computer/
it's got two ethernet ports.

Did you know that any wifi chip can be used as both a sender and a receiver?
how do you think you'd get data in and out of the device?
trick is... you don't actually need a router. How fun is that!

what if (hear me out)
what if instead of TCP we just did a constant stream of UDP packets until the
recipient said "OKAY OKAY I GET IT"

why would I want other people using my computer? They don't know how to use my
computer! They might break something or mess something up or automatically
read/edit my files that are stored in standard locations through the usage of
a script which automagically scans and ransomwares machines on the internet
who store their files in specific standardized locations! no thank you.

just realized when I got disconnected it gave me a different username, so if
you've been messaging me I haven't been getting it. Ooops. relogging now to
try and fix it.

Just configured Wake on LAN so I can turn on my desktop from anywhere. As long
as I have the right SSH key...
Couldn't figure out how to do Wake on WAN, which I think is somehow more
secure. This way uses a small jump from a separate tiny computer which is
always on.

apparently you can use network sockets for inter-process communication if you
just set the network to your home and the ports that are set to the defaults
that people who know what software you use will know to listen on when they've
hacked any single device on your network. good thing that data is with the
router, right?
what if there was a stop before leaving the computer?

nope
I figure if I have to rebuild them, oh well.
plus this way I can give each of my computers a slightly different personality.
