gollark: Right. Fair point. I'm sure there's some networking stuff around for networking over a channel where you can't run two things at once.
gollark: I also had the weird idea of networking between adjacent devices by setting labels really fast, but that probably could get by with just some sensible error checking.
gollark: Also, I have this thing for networking (at amazing 20Bps speed) over bundled cables. Perhaps that would be a sensible place to apply Ethernet stuff? It's currently only safe to use between two devices at once (lest others interfere horribly) and has no error correcting stuff.
