- alt227 1mo agoDont know why you are getting downvoted, this is a valid method widely recomended in this day and age. The hacker cant hack your password book locked in your desk drawer!
- mrweasel 1mo agoIt's not dumb, it's just a little inconvenient. My passwords are normally 50+ characters and pretty hard to type out, but I could fix that with "Correct Horse Battery Staple" passwords. Travelling is a little worse. I'd need to carry my little pocket book an risk losing it and now I can't lock my accounts, because I don't have the password for them (I could have a backup). You know, I'm kinda talking myself into just doing passwords in a pocket book.
- chromehearts 1mo agoOut of pure interest, why not settle down to idk .. 15-20 characters? Why 50+ char (with what I assume lots of symbols and randomized characters) passwords?
- mrweasel 1mo agoBecause I just auto-generate them and 50 is the default in 1Password. I rarely change default in any software I use, partly out of laziness and partly to ensure consistency across devices.
