I take my Chromecast on holiday, you basically have to factory reset it every time to change network. But my recollection is that you've always had to do that.

Remind me, what app did it use before? I have had Chromecast since gen 1, can't remember any other app, but that's probably my memory failing.
I did the exact same thing. Its such a stupid step backwards in functionality.
Chromecast with Google TV made the "simple" casting worse for some apps like Netflix. Instead of it casting directly, it would spawn the Netflix app and make you use the remote to reselect the show you wanted to see.
That is likely a speed test server within the same data center as your vps, or they have special traffic shaping rules for it.
Try using iperf from your local box to the VPS and see what speeds you get
Its functionally pretty close to a thin client OS? You could probably roll your own with a little bit of effort
With enough Teflon tape and/or torque, anything is possible :D

I vaguely recall reading something about some of their departments were not even using the floppy. Like you had to submit with a floppy, but it was never actually written or read from, and you supplied the documents another way. (I could have entirely made this up, don't quote me)
Never heard that term, but its a very obscure concept, so wouldn't surprise me if it had multiple names. Probably vender specific names?
Seems quite a few people havent heard of it, hence a lot of the split DNS answers :/
I have a travel router as well, I just prefer to keep the SSIDs different. It is definitely paranoia, but if someone sees your travel router at a hotel, they know your not home, and your home can be found on wigle.net.
Its not that bad to reset the Chromecast, and I do it infrequently, so I'm happy with that.
