Why would you use an encrypted file when you have free, open source password managers like Keepass?
Every time you login somewhere, you open the file, search for the site, copy the password and paste it in the browser?
What do you do when you need a password on your phone?
What do you do to clean your memory after the paste operation to reduce the likelyhood of memory trojans reading it?

- duncan_bayne 9y agoActually I SSH into my home server :) At work, and with shared family accounts, I use 1Password; it works nicely and has a Web interface so I can use it from FreeBSD. My personal workflow though is heavily Emacs-centric; I use Emacs for editing, programming, IRC, email, file management, PIM (orgmode), and (soon) Slack.
- laci27 9y agoHow much do you get paid / hour? Cause that takes times. 5 minutes here, 5 minutes there and I guarantee you that if you do the math, you're wasting a lot of time doing stuff that password managers (online/offline/closed or open sourced) can do automatically.
