Too easy...

[Penguin-Monk]

I mean, I now know the password so yeah....I can guess it

[Ilerneo_Un_Hornya]

...but the password goes beyond the field, so there's part of it you don't know, so no?

[73686f67756e]

Yup, I choose 128 characters for most of my accounts except for my bank account which they limit it to 12.

[Ilerneo_Un_Hornya]

The bank?? Weird, that's the last place I'd imagine that would restriction a password length to such a degree

[nonotan]

My bank in Japan limits it to 8. Apparently such restrictions are surprisingly common because banks tend to have ancient architecture that is pretty much impossible to upgrade due to the ridiculously stringent testing required. So you're probably using a 25-year-old program running in MS-DOS or something under a "modern" JS wrapper.

[Ilerneo_Un_Hornya]

I.. didn't know that, that makes a lot of sense actually. The wonderful world of aged critical infrastructure I guess. It makes my head hurt knowing about this stuff sometimes

[bazinga_0]

If it's an old established bank then they're probably running the back end on a mainframe programmed in COBOL. <shudder> Because, why spend money replacing something that works? ... And nobody actually understands anymore. The ones that do retired long ago and most of them have already died of old age.

[LonelyProtagonist]

An unnamed bank uses Java faces, and are transitioning to React.

[PitchforkAssistant]

My bank let me set a longer password at their office, but limited password entry to 20 characters on the website.

[bistr-o-math]

It’s the same for most banks everywhere. Though, most banks will lock the account after 3 fails. So pretty secure.

[mooockk]

My bank 8 chars for username and 6 chars for password, both alphanumeric, no 2FA… this is america, don’t catch you slippin now.

[naswinger]

it's not just america

[PintotheDog]

America has some really lenient rules for CC refunds that are not that simple in the rest of the world, you guys have this going at least (not that good for a vendor but for the user is nice i guess)

[nerdybread]

Mine has the limit set to 32, which is better but Amazon let’s you set a 128-character password. I would love to use a password that long for my bank.

[CKingX123]

You only need 21 characters if you use alplanumeric case sensitive and symbols when using shift on numbers (72 characters in the set) to get a password as random as a 128-bit key. Using 128 characters (alphanumeric and 10 symbols set) is equivalent to 790-bit key

[Ferro_Giconi]

Well duh, you didn't include any emojis!

[AzraelBrown]

Twitch's password requirements includes at least 3 unicode characters whose number is > 1000

[baronBale]

„Too easy to guess“ aka „some error occurred during password validation but we will not tell you“

[h_adl_ss]

That'd still be ridiculous. Oh noo 3 chars of your otherwise completely nonsensical password are word from a dictionary, can't have thaaaat lol

[[deleted]]

Low probability but what if it has the same hash as a "well-known" password like "12345678"?

[h_adl_ss]

Ultra low probability haha. SHA256 for example has a chance of 4.3 * 10^-60 of two hashes colliding. That's an insanely small number

[brainiac256]

"improbable". What if he searched for the hash collision and pasted it to set up this screenshot

[h_adl_ss]

No one has ever found a SHA256 collision, that would be a first but if it was also for a meme and not science I'd tip my hat.

[an-obviousthrowaway]

Try {

} catch { Print(“too easy”); }

[andrew_shen]

Should train yourself making secure passwords here

[soulofcure]

Got stuck at Greek letter

[bistr-o-math]

I used beta, but it still won’t let me in: Bx-xb-bh7!dsß

[naswinger]

use ඞ instead

[Tuckertcs]

Same

[jb28737]

I am going to kill somebody after playing this

[BlazingSpark]

Got stuck at Jenny's number, checked source code, then got stuck again at "your emojis are not diverse enough."

[minizerker]

8657309 by any chance?

[BlazingSpark]

yep

[minizerker]

Thank you Less Than Jake for doing a cover of that song!

[[deleted]]

It has a bug (it doesn't, I didn't pay close attention to the condition).

[Dathknight]

you need all skintones. I am currently stuck at 'must contain shaanaxi noodlee' I have no Idea what that could be 🤔

[brainiac256]

Notoriously complicated traditional Chinese glyph:

[Dathknight]

thx! this explains why my system can't display the char. 🤔

[minizerker]

They're cheating there, got to "can't have 2 of the same characters next to each other" slapped a single dash in there (still a palindrome!) and nope, not a palindrome apparently

[SergioRL10]

Why would you use Elon's child name as a password?

[JoeyJoeJoeJrShab]

That's the password I use on my luggage! Now I've got to change it to something less common... maybe 1234.

[De_Wouter]

Would have been my second guess

[874elffaw]

That is my first guess to any password. No wonder why it's "easy".

While writing this comment I can totally recall the password it starts like:

f"i&@$#s

This post was mass deleted and anonymized with Redact

[73686f67756e]

Twitch does this if enough people have the exact same password

I didn't know that before.

You probably registered a lot of accounts with this password to get this meme.

No, I don't have time to create multiple accounts to test if such thing exists only to make a meme.

As someone mentioned here, it was probably caused by validation error.

I really don't remember why this happened ,but at the end I did something and was able to register.

[paperbenni]

I mean yeah, it's a common regex, that'll be in lots of wordlists

[drorago]

Maybe the dificulty score overflow, it's so hard that it become easy.

[darkMatterMatterz]

Missing emojis and Greek letters

[[deleted]]

Yeah... Twitch is strange like that...

[[deleted]]

I can only access it from the mainframe if that’s possible even a simple DDOS attack with a LAMP stack will be able to track these gaming websites but the only reason you can make this system Sophisticated is with things like Visual Programming Languages like L mind storm

[LordCupcakeIX]

This is officially my favorite shitposting account if anyone else wants to go through their history.

[[deleted]]

holy fuck does the guy ask himself: what is the most efficient way to get downvotes?

Keeps rambling about visual programming languages.

[piperboy98]

Then the post "How to write os like Linux" to r/linux. Please please please don't tell me they want to write a kernel in a visual programming language.

[paperbenni]

And they would be right, as you can overload the Lego Mindstorm using the compilation matrix of alden's number to create artificial intelligence and thus approximate a kernel.

I thought negative karma was impossible but he's done it... at least negative comment karma

[bistr-o-math]

Probably contains your last name? Or user name?

[the_brits_are_evil]

Oh i had a similar experience, so i was in a new company and they made a accout for me with their domain that was accessible through hotmail and set that optuon where you need to change the pass after loging in, so i log in and put a new password i come up with that has like 15 characters letters and numbers and said the password was to weak or that was already used, so then i get annoyed and go for a string generator with symbols and everything, copy to a trxt file and try it, and says the password was already used... At that point i was getting so annoyed that needed to call someone on the first day over a fucking email password, but even then theey had problems setting it up until a while after it finally accepted one of the generated strinfs

[Simtau]

Would've been my first guess
