  You need a TCP handshake prior to sending any http payload.

  Just make a packet and overwite the IP field.

  I can tell I’m getting old by the amount of proudly-dumb shit I keep reading.

  It’s only going to get worse. Sigh.

      If you just do it on your own computer, the packet will be already dropped by your own gateway. You can fake whichever address in your local subnet, but those are very likely remapped anyway in your gw to the one given by your ISP.

      If you would have access to the switch port used by your ISP in the Internet exchange point (IX), you would have more liberties in choosing the IP.
