Spaceballs: The Reference
I give this comment a lone star.
If only they'd used something more secure, like 12345678
123456Qwerty!
The problem isn't weak passwords like Ritzau and Jens Myrup Pedersen want you to believe. It’s that we are using passwords to authenticate authorized users in public databases for unlimited time and bandwidth.
It's the 21c, and people still do not Keberos.
Idiots. That's why I use 654321! Who's going to guess that?
You need to add some letters too. Try hunter12
What's weird is that at my org we have all the security theatre and regular password changes and training videos you have to watch every month, and I just assume people ignore the training because it's obvious stuff. It's clearly not obvious stuff to some folks.
Denmark is fucking up today
today
Yeees... today
