Stamets [Mirror]I will burn your servers to the ground, foul villain
MrQuallzinOne of our systems at work don’t let you use the past thirteen passwords! Plus monthly password changes. Guess who’s got a generic password that has an ever increasing number at the end of it…
One of my work applications doesn’t allow you to use any of the letters in the same spot or any repeating letters . And it expires every 45 days . So for example if I used Batman1 for my password . I can’t just switch to Captain2 because the second letter is the same . And you can’t use something like Poophead because there are 2 O’s in a row . It’s a nightmare every time it expires .
That also means they are saving that information. I doubt a single character can be usefully hashed. Seems like a security nightmare.
It’s also some shitty program that is all black screen with green text that was probably made in the 90s . From what I understand it’s used by a bunch of different shipping companies and very unintuitive to use .
Ah, crap.

Those are some aggressive password rule options.
On the plus side, it may be over engineered all of the way to fuck and back. (Or not)
