A lot of the times both "zipcode" and "state" are mandatory fields.
Zipcode is easy, the platform likely wants my postal code.
You have to be a little bit more creative with state, sometimes "We don't have any states" is fun to see printed on your address label on a parcel, other times "Denmark" could be considered a state in the EU and that can be an answer, but most times "N/A" is enough.
My postal code is 2200 (København N), and that form didn't do anything for me.
All zip codes are postal codes, but not all postal codes are zip codes.
At my last gig, this sentence was said a lot, and people kept confusing the two, both in code and in daily speech, so maybe colloquially they are the same :)
This makes me a bit sad, the $99/month always made other options more preferable for me, but I always loved the graphs from stathat and the forecasts seemed useful.
I've been struggling with Bunny the last couple of days.
Their log delivery api is delayed by over 3 days, despite them promising only "up to 5 minutes delay" in their docs: https://docs.bunny.net/cdn/logging
Why isn't it on the status page you might ask? Oh, that's because a delay is not "critical", but I fear I am losing loglines now, their retention is 3 days.
It's an interesting strategy for them, because it doesn't inspire confidence in me about their other offerings. When they can't reliably operate a log delivery API or be transparent about issues, it's hard to trust them with something as critical as a database.
Hey, I’m Joe, Lead of Content Delivery & Security at bunny.net.
We’re currently working through a backlog of approximately 2.5M log files. I’ve spent the last day optimizing our backlog processing pipeline, which has significantly increased throughput.
Based on the current processing rate, we expect the backlog to be fully cleared within the next 12–18 hours (estimate), and real-time log delivery should progressively return closer to real-time as the backlog drains.
Apologies for the inconvenience this has caused. We’re also in the process of migrating away from our existing logging infrastructure to a ClickHouse-based system to significantly improve reliability and throughput and prevent this from happening again.
We’ve published a status page incident and will continue posting updates there as progress is made.
As an additional update: we’ve deployed a change to our logging platform that separates backlog processing from the real-time ingestion queue. This should allow real-time log delivery to recover while the remaining backlog continues to process.
Thank you for your update, it's really appreaciated, it will be good to get this sorted :) It sounds like quite a challenge you're working on with the ingest and backlog!
When I was about 12 I was working on a PHP3 application, I had some issues with a MySQL query, and I pasted my code to pastebin (or whatever we used back then) and shared the link on IRC, the code included my database credentials.
Back then our ISP gave every computer a public IP.
The next thing that happened was that someone changed my MySQL password, and me being 12, I didn’t know how to change it back.
They made me beg for the password, to much amusement to the whole channel, and then they helped me secure it and taught me how to reset the password.
NAT would have saved me, but I wouldn’t have received a free, though a bit embarrassing, security lesson.
Me, too! I worked at Sun from 2002-2004, and some of us got them as pointlessly fancy door badges for datacenter access. In hindsight it was such a novelty, almost a gag, but they were kind of awesome for what they were. And you felt like an absolute badass when using one to badge in!
You're right, I was mistaken, I've seen some Youtubers playing games on it, but they use GameHub to run Steam games, somehow I thought it was running Steam OS.
I also had it stop working completely. I thought they finally wised up to my adblocker, but I decided to finally install that update I had been sitting on for a while and it just started working again
Probably just the typical nefarious activities of YouTube. Either "accidentally" driving users to switch browsers, or experimenting with circumventing ad blockers, or negligence in testing, or who knows what.
If they want the "Google has no browser monopoly!" claim, then they should be obligated to make their services work perfectly with the alternative, instead of subtly scheming and manipulating people.
One thing you can do is to use an invidious instance. Those don't support live streams and shorts, but at least you don't have to deal with the atrocious normal YouTube frontend.
The most irritating thing about the credit-card sized ones, are how they aren’t attached if you move around.
I like to be mobile, so I put some velcro ultra-mate on the back of my laptop, and also on my disk, then the disk can be attached and plugged in while I move around.
I also got a 90-degree USB-C cable for a more direct cable route.
I just upgraded the internal storage of my Lenovo T14 (AMD, Gen6) to 4TB, and that took all of 5 minutes. And that laptop was definitely made in 2025, although I agree that consumer sentiment overwhelmingly favors models that are less convenient in that respect.
Not really an issue outside the Apple ecosystem and a few fringe tablet hybrids like from Microsoft. Vast majority of laptops sold today have standard SSDs you can upgrade.

Though some make it quite difficult to get in to replace the drive, and put everything back together after.
Some are very easy: an obvious compartment at the bottom, unscrew lid, remove drive, put in replacement, power up and transfer old content, done. I've seen both NVMe and 2.5" SATA drives arranged this way. On the other hand, upgrading my friend's laptop recently involved taking most of it apart, the drive was under the keyboard inaccessible from the back, with other link cables (for keyboard, antenna, screen) in the way so they had to be disconnected and were in very inconvenient arrangements for reconnecting after…
This reminded me of my professor's laptop with a Ricochet wireless modem attached in much the same way back in the early/mid 1990s. That was an early wireless ISP prevalent in the SF Bay Area.
