minus-squarelivus@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up4·8 months ago@metaStatic I have found that the fastest way to parse long passwords eg software keys is if you underline all numbers as you write them down.

Maybe as a T if you have particularly bad handwriting, but I can’t say I’ve ever had that issue O and 0, on the other hand… tell me why strikethrough zero isn’t standard in text format yet

well if you stroke through a zero, it’s too easy to confuse with an empty set
