Well, if you are on internet long enough you know what rule 34 is. For those don't know just google your favorite fictional character along with "rule 34" text, and make sure also call all your loved ones together and also share search results with them. I'm sure they will be very happy to see their child/sibling/partner to have such sophisticated preferences.😈

This one single notification might make me run this again. Just one thing to clarify since I don't want to take all the credit for that - the YT spreadsheet was originally made by shelerr in a more simple form, then later Bleach (some might have seen his world's first sub-1 minute) was the one who made this version with the formatting, I only made minor formatting changes and optimized the pretyped password after that.

for your rule 16 you deflected the knight by sacrificing the queen so it stops protecting e6 square. And after knight takes queen you just move E pawn for checkmate

[@louisroy4911]

Thanks! I had not taken the time to look it over and was curious. A queen sacrifice to a pawn checkmate is just 😘👌🏼

[@onebear6504]

2:53 (or 3:04) for anyone wanting to check. And the move was Qxh7+ Edit: sorry for being a n00b but with queen to h7, which knight is the deflected one and be taking the queen? Because the only black knight is on e8. In my mind it's a good move because there's no other way to save the king other than taking the queen with king to h7 and after that checkmate with rook to h3.

[@hannahw7023]

this comment is really funny when you remember that we're talking about making a password

[@peoplecallmepeechez]

How is this a pawn checkmate? Isn't it you check with the queen, king takes the queen and then you check mate with your rook on the third rank?

[@eragonshadeslayer261]

Reason why Qf5+ works: 1. Qf5+ Nxf5 (Knight captures Queen on f5) 2. e6# checkmate, as the pair of bishops cut off all paths of retreat for the enemy king and the Knight that could have captured the pawn on e6 was deflected by the Queen sacrifice.

[@Jig_up]

In the real world, I believe it has to be divisible by four, but not by 100, unless it’s also divisible by 400, in which case it returns to being a leap year. Fairly obviously, though, 0 is divisible by all of these (and in fact, by every number except itself) with remainder 0 (I do not know if you knew this information or not, but I personally find it interesting and wanted to share. If you already knew it, my apologies for the redundancy)

Rule 36 : Write the current time in your password up the microsecond MANUALLY so it contains it and doesn't contradict the first 35 rules.

[@reillycurran8508]

Cybersecurity expert here, most of these are actually just the worst password rules possible. The idea behind most password rules is that they expand the possible keyspace to make brute forcing them harder. Most of these rules actually reduce the keyspace by placing restrictions on how and when you can use different characters, meaning someone out to guess the password can just walk back those rules and start guessing from the significantly shorter list of all possible passwords fitting those rules than the list of passwords that don't have to have all their numbers add up to 25 or that have to contain a roman numeral that sums to 35 or that specifically has a prime number length.

[@neophyte_7777]

[@NullWes10]

Been a while since I heard about the password game, we're chatting about it in the password game speedrun discord

[@NOMOREWORRY]

why 0 counts as leap year: 0 mod x = 0 which would result in a pass, as you'd check n mod 4, 100, 400, 2400 for n being your year to determine a leap year or not leap year (every 4th year is a leap year, but not every 100th except the 400th except the 2400th year) (modulo means rest after division, so for 2 modulo 5 it would be 2, for 7 modulo 5 it would also be 2. 5 fits 0 times into 2 and 2 remains, 5 fits 1 time into 7 and 2 remains) to those curious: leap years exist due to a year having not 365 but 365.2422 days, the above mentioned corrections of leap years / not leap years result in an almost flat average of 365. even with the newly added rule of 2400th (some even consider 2800th year or 3200th year instead) you'd still not get a perfect average. this however will bring us close enough for us to not notice it. to prevent shifting for example summertime to december, this ruleset must be implemented. i hope you have a nice day

[@xelspeth]

Where did you read about 2400?
