- ndsipa_pomu 4mo agoI just uses stars as my password, so that works everywhere for me. (For security, I won't let you know how many stars)
- jeremyjh 4mo agoThis is perfectly safe as long as you keep your username a secret.
- ndsipa_pomu 4mo agoI try to use stars as my username, but a lot of places won't allow it
- brookst 4mo agoYeah it’s one of those words that gets snapped up early, like https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=stars https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=stars
- ndsipa_pomu 4mo agoThat doesn't look like a well used account - how do I get it transferred to me? Edit: never mind, I guessed the password as it was only five stars.
- csomar 4mo agoLet me try: ******* Edit: it does really work.
- psychoslave 4mo agoKeeping track of password is for those who can’t crack any account whenever it’s needed, of course. Just create the account, and crack it everytime a login is needed, as simple as that.
- fennecfoxy 4mo agoLmao I bet Dang is watching this chain like *finger on edit button*
- leafericssonday 4mo agoLet me try leafericssonday1
- leafericssonday 4mo agoHello, me! That did, in fact, work.
- leafericssonday 4mo agoWow! That's incredible, me. I would never have expected such a thing.
