This is a community for people who have home servers. 100M is fine for a couple people just web browsing, but that’s not the topic of this discussion.

Waking up with random neck pain is just a thing that happens sometimes. It also will happen more often as you get older. I wouldn’t be worried unless it was a very consistent thing.

The “hot shoe” is the mount for a flash or other accessories on a camera https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9f/Canon_350D_Hot_Shoe.jpg

That’s a surname 😞
