Posy has many videos along the lines of technology connections with incredible macro footage as well as lots of other random interesting stuff.

mitxela for well documented high quality projects blending mechanical and electrical engineering.

The Tim Traveller is basically Tom Scott if only covering strange historical things. And unlike Tom Scott he’s still making videos.

Cathode Ray Dude does a mix of long form content like technology connections, but focusing on relatively modern computers.

Notably this post gets it wrong too, missing the S. It’s “the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog”.

+1 for VPS, the ionos ones are $2/mo and have unlimited bandwidth at 400mbps. That’s basically the cost of electricity for a home server with orders of magnitude better reliability.

NVME only. I suspect caching just isn’t enabled based on previous comment. If it’s not by default then I didn’t change it.

I reverse proxy over tailscale to a VPS because I have double NAT… The connection to the VPS is direct with wireguard at least, no relay node. Adds ~30ms latency. But even when I connect direct locally it’s not substantially faster.

I’ll check my config.php for caching. I don’t recall adding anything for it so if it’s not on by default then that’s a likely reason. Thanks!

Any tips for speeding it up? Loading can be painfully slow at times. I was reading that it may be the database (I use MariaDB which in theory shouldn’t limit it with 32gb RAM and an R7 1700x).
