    I still sometimes think about my first email address, and how it had a four letter password. Just signed up at Yahoo, it wasn’t anything special.

      456,976 possibilities. Which crazy machine could find that cool password. I had similar stuff back then 😝

        A lot fewer possibilities than that! No special characters, all lower case, it was a word in the dictionary.

        Those were different times.
