It’s infuriating to create a “strong password” with letters, numbers, upper and lowercase, symbols, and non-repeating text… but it has to be only 8 to 16 characters long.
That’s not a “strong” password, random characters or not.
Is there a limitation that somehow prevents these sites from allowing more than 16 characters?
I’m talking government websites, not just forums. It seems crazy to me.
Here in the USA, I just prefer to show up in person.
Hell, just 2 days ago I went in to renew my mother’s auto tag. She wasn’t even with me.
Easy peasy.
Interestingly enough, I went to check on how to apply for our new dental care plan, and they only give the option to apply online. 😵
I don’t generally mind doing government-related stuff online, since it’s minutes rather than hours of my time. But this password thing, for a government site, is aweful.
It took me about 8 months to learn…
If it’s an emergency, you can literally tell the dentist what to do, especially if it happens to involve an abscess.
The dentist wanted to lecture me, like I should have been in there months sooner.
I straight up told her to fuck off, I already knew that, but couldn’t afford it prior. Then I told her to get to work, quit leaving me suffering…
Edit: Why am I kinda cross posting the things on my mind right now? The system in the USA is and has been so fucked up for a long time…
