@C0D4 I'm special that's how lol
I'm pretty sure it's on my laptop. Haven't checked yet though.
And to be fair, I mainly used it for logging into places to pay bills. I remember most of my "essential" passwords. -
Root825084yDerp.
I relate many of my passwords to objects so they're easy to remember. Memory palace and all. -
@Root seee I've got a pattern. But I was worried about locking myself out like the first account I made several years ago (~5 or so) if I tried too many times.
-
@Jilano it's a tempting offer but I think I'mma store it on a sticky note next to my keyboard.
-
Apparently I changed it at some point within the last 6 months and didn't remember doing that. Oof
-
@Root that is an oddball way of doing it but I can see how efficient and good it actually can be. Good job.

I describe some of my jewelry, make a comment/joke about the company’s logo, rewrite the title of a book, come up with an amusing phrase about games and/or game dev cliches, etc. They usually relate to the account/service in question, so if I can remember the related object/idea, it reminds me of the password.
They’re All long passwords, not easily guessable, and are easy for me to remember. (And yes, I do write them down in a password manager just in case.)
Depending on complexity rules (and account importance) I might use a hash instead. I often modify these a bit so I can remember them in a pinch, too. Still high entropy, but with new and improved in-jokes! Those really are difficult to remember, though. -
@Root oh WHOA. You put a lot of thought into a password. I only use a password manager.
-
@Stuxnet wgat I do is I put my finger on the first key of the password. after a while the muscle memory usually does the rest.
