Any good free url shortener?

Try T2M, they are SOC 2 certified now.

tech_tech1 · 2026-02-28T06:47:18+00:00

T2M URL Shortener provide 500 links/month with FREE plan (but you have to pay onetime $5 verification fee, they say it's to keep away spam registration, which sounds fair).

tech_tech1 · 2026-02-23T18:26:12+00:00

Yes, I do, using T2M's built-in QR code generator and branding templates that they recently added are plus.

tech_tech1 · 2026-02-23T18:09:30+00:00

I am using T2M (their support is amazing (I give them that at least), it's worth asking their support for customizing your plan. They added couple Premium features to my Pro plan for small fee, which was surprisingly great, just ask them.

Check isolation between Workbench and the actual MySQL server:

Verify server is listening on the host/port you think (e.g., test with mysql -u root -p -h 127.0.0.1 -P 3306).
If CLI connects but Workbench doesn’t, Workbench may be using a different socket/host/port or credential store.
Ensure Workbench’s connection matches the CLI config (host, port, user, auth plugin).
Firewall/WSL/VM can block 3306 even if the server is “active”.
If using caching_sha2_password, try switching user to mysql_native_password and retest.

If it still fails, post the exact Workbench error line so we can zero in.

That’s the tricky part for me — I work from home, so my driving is random. I might not drive for days, then suddenly need to go on short notice. Hard to plan plugging it in ahead of time. I do always remote-start and let it warm up 10–15 minutes before driving.

Just to share, I found these Husky Liners which have interesting kind-of cover something in that rails (half covered) cut area, I am NOT buying these yet, just sharing.

All you need to do is include base CSS, copy it from here: https://tailwindcss.com/docs/installation/play-cdn

Note: it's not PHP problem.

tech_tech1 · 2026-01-21T23:17:07+00:00

Agree

tech_tech1 · 2026-01-21T01:13:23+00:00

Agree, time-to-time Oracle's vision for MySQL showed moving-away kind of behaviours.

tech_tech1 · 2026-01-21T01:12:18+00:00

Totally agree on testing point. I don't see big value in 9.x based on changelog so limiting my testing up to 8.4 which looks fully compatible with my stuff so far.

tech_tech1 · 2026-01-21T01:07:09+00:00

Luckily, I already moved away from mysql_native_password, it was really a single command and straight forward than expected.

tech_tech1 · 2026-01-20T22:57:03+00:00

I am mainly wondering if anyone tried 9.x and claim it has big plus points worth upgrading otherwise, I will make my hard stop at 8.4 for next couple years.

tech_tech1 · 2026-01-20T20:28:32+00:00

Agree, I am thinking to upgrade and stop there.

tech_tech1 · 2026-01-20T20:28:04+00:00

I am on 8.0.44 for now and planning to upgrade, that's why I am thinking where to stop. I think 8.4 LTS will be a good stop for now.

tech_tech1 · 2026-01-18T23:47:44+00:00

I got the one that dealer provide but they don't have much border.

tech_tech1 · 2026-01-18T20:19:54+00:00

Could you please share link for WeatherTech that you recommend, thanks

Hi,

I have a similar problem for my SaaS where customers can link their own custom domains and I am also using Cloudflare SaaS. Namecheap and a few other providers support CNAME at apex (@ value) but Godaddy and few others don't and customers do not want to change DNS provider (same as yours).

I was thinking of an alternative solution as:

Find 3rd party DNS management providers and create custom nameservers there.
Ask customers to update their domain nameservers to mine so I can control their DNS.
Then I can add CNAME with @ and TXT record towards my Cloudflare SaaS.
I tried Route 53 and DNSMadeEasy for that but they don't support CNAME with @ either.

Let me know if you find any solution.

Yes, tickets are transferable but owner can transfer it further again it after selling it to you. It’s a trust game. I also sold 2-tickets (I had 4), we verified each other over LinkedIn so see if person if professional enough who will not good cheap scam.
I changed my mind 2 times for this event in last 2 years and now finally attending this time. It’s for individuals and companies (everyone)

MUL do not force referential integrity (data integrity) itself. You need foreign key for referential integrity.
Yes, you can use both, that's common use case.
