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.

Why is 1701 circled?
NCC-1701 is the ship designator of the Enterprise from Star Trek
Now imagine if you could use FIVE digits for something as important as a bank account.
I use 8! My mom called me ridiculous for doing that :(
It is! How long does it even take to type in 40320 digits?!?
The fact that every 4-digit pin is in this picture shows quite well how these are pretty easy to crack.
Idk why you would be cracking a PIN code. They aren’t really typically used for online security (and shouldn’t be). And if your attacker is targeting you, the PIN code isn’t meant to stop them.
What it does stop is you finding a random card on the side of the street and finding the nearest ATM to withdraw all of the cash from.
which will lock the card after 3 tries, so even if you are using your birth year chances are they are not going to guess it
If the bank is going to make me memorize both a unique 10+ character password and a 4 digit pin, of course I'm going to make a dead easy PIN.
I have never had a ststic password for my bank, is that even legal?
For any sort of online banking you generally need a password.
A lot of banks these days are online only.
My bank just gave me a random PIN number. Choosing my own was not an option.
I was able to change it, but once I found out I had the random one memorized anyways and changing would've been even more confusing.
I'd forget that so hard.
I used to be able to memorize random sequences of numbers when I was young, but my brain doesn't do that tedious shit any more.
Password manager is the way. It's recommended for all password related things anyway.
