Just to be clear.   
      
   I reconfigured both to use:   
      
   Laptop 169.254.0.1   
   Mask 255.255.0.0   
      
   PC 169.254.0.2   
   Mask 255.255.0.0   
      
   Still can't ping.   
      
   I suspect some fucking retard designated these ips and mask as "unusable"   
      
   GREAT.   
      
   NOT.   
      
   I saw something about this on pascalcoin issue list:   
      
   Bogus ip ranges:   
      
   REALLY such a thing exists ?! HOW USELESS LOL:   
      
      
   For security reasons the node server list should be filtered out of these IP   
   ranges. (perhaps at the TNetData.NetData.AddServer level)   
   List of Bogon ip blocks:   
      
       0.0.0.0/8 "This" network   
       10.0.0.0/8 Private-use networks   
       100.64.0.0/10 Carrier-grade NAT   
       127.0.0.0/8 Loopback   
       127.0.53.53 Name collision occurrence   
       169.254.0.0/16 Link local   
       172.16.0.0/12 Private-use networks   
       192.0.0.0/24 IETF protocol assignments   
       192.0.2.0/24 TEST-NET-1   
       192.168.0.0/16 Private-use networks   
       198.18.0.0/15 Network interconnect device benchmark testing   
       198.51.100.0/24 TEST-NET-2   
       203.0.113.0/24 TEST-NET-3   
       224.0.0.0/4 Multicast   
       240.0.0.0/4 Reserved for future use   
       255.255.255.255/32 Limited broadcast   
      
   LINK LOCAL ?!   
      
   BUT CANT USE IT LOCAL ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?   
      
   WTF....   
      
   Cause it's for loopback only or something....   
      
   Why windows use this crap... to prevent interference with local networks   
   ?!?!?! REALLY ???!?!?!?!?   
      
   CAN YOU RETARDS OF IANA PLS ADD A DIRECT CONNECTION IP RANGE WITH OS-ES like   
   Windows are to FALL BACK ON for easy COMPUTER 2 COMPUTER CONNECTIONS.   
      
   Then we can use this as DEFAULT.   
      
   Instead of USELESS BOGUS CRAP.   
      
      
   STOP THE ANNOYING FUCKING USELESS BOGUS CRAP ALREADY !!!!   
      
   Bye,   
     Skybuck.
