    Weak-ass password doesn’t even contain special characters. Also, oddly limited to Earth Arabic numerals in a universe with hundreds of sentient alien species.

      doesn’t even contain special characters.

      1. that is totally irrelevant
      2. using of passwords in a world where you have technology to verify your identity on a molecular level is one of the funny startrek nonsenses

      I may be missing the sarcasm, but including dashes and spaces, it’s 83 characters longs. It’s effectively unbreakable.

        That depends on the system and whether it immediately responds to the challenge with a failure or locks out after a number of incorrect responses.

        If LCARS is programmed to just immediately respond that the password is wrong then the real password could probably be brute force guessed in a matter of seconds given the computers in the 24th century…
