0·8 days agogood read. TLDR is that Sun Microsystems database software truncated passwords to 8 characters and the OP assumed that others must do that too. I surely hope not, TBH. I thought truncating to 8 characters had to do with computational or storage efficiency back when that mattered. I’m pretty sure most database fields if they’re modern use like a 256 character limit for passwords right?
Shit, I remember when my machine couldn’t handle compiz fusion and this demo made me jealous. We’ve come a long way.
someone should have stolen this meme for my intro computer architecture course it would have helped
