Wonder why email as an identifier wasn’t sufficient…

I really miss a somewhat niche forum about a video game I’m playing… but I also don’t find the time to put in the effort of re-creating and moderating it myself here again.

ISO-8601 dictates 2023-12-31.

I must.

Sure. Banks should be enforcing that instead of special characters. But the vast majority of people would just choose "football" or "password" as their passwords if they weren't required to do something more complex.

Ironically though, something like

IveLovedUsingFootballAsMyPassword!EverSinceThe1980s.

as a password would be miles ahead of even the most random character combination possible, but which is only 12-20 characters long.

And as an added bonus, the above example is practically guaranteed to have never been used before, in addition to being correct horse battery staple (that is, tremendously easy to remember).

I hate when a website/app in this day and age imposes an absurdly low upper password character limit like 30. (cough looking at you, PayPal, when I re-set my password a few years ago it was freaking 20, not exaggerating).

Shouldn't password length below like 100 (or realistically, any length until it starts crashing the js behind it?) not matter anyways, since it's all salted, peppered and hashed before further processing anyways?

Exactly. Also, one might prefer 75, 80% of Chrome’s speed, but also 75% of the battery usage and maybe only 90% for RAM.

I for one would definitely not be against less battery usage on laptop/mobile
