My brother in Christ, it was 2020 before my bank supported passwords longer than 8 characters. We have 30 or 40 years before we need to worry about the banks.

Some banks are still running windows 98 internally, admitedly so long as said system isnt connected to the internet it should be fine.

Lol, not to mention Cobalt and other horrors that are lurking in Legacy systems no one has looked at in 50 years.

I'm thinking mainframe terminals, where the character has to be in the right place on the screen in order to store something in RAM.

Even worse, how many systems are still using punch cards? How often do those cards need to be replaced?
