Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Now imagine if you could use FIVE digits for something as important as a bank account.
Even more hilarious is the number of banks that have online login systems that have a maximum length of like 12 characters for the password.
and then the 2nd factor? Yeah that's just another password.
I've met ones that restrict passwords to be 6–8 characters
At my last job, our payroll logins were maxed at 6 characters
Install a second language keyboard, and put your password in those characters.
Second factor being a “security question” that anyone who stalks you on social media could figure out.
Not if you put nonsense as your security answer too. A lot of people don't realise that those answers should be secondary passwords.
But then you have to note down another password.
I use 8! My mom called me ridiculous for doing that :(
It is! How long does it even take to type in 40320 digits?!?
I figure gotta be, at least 45 seconds!
She's right, 8 is not a very secure code.
