Re: Do you use one of these popular passwords?

Yeah I'm not a big fan of the smug way many security teams lord it up over the peons and tell jokes about weak passwords. Yeah we get it. Unfortunately I can't remember 2000 different password combinations, so without using a password manager (usually blocked in places I work) or chrome (frowned upon) or writing them down (death to all who do this apparently) I have few options (usually this involves writing down part of it and using a code to remind me of the rest)

I have a lot of passwords in lastpass with a swear word in it because that site has been hacked.

The sooner we go towards using retina scan / fingerprint / decent sso solutions / sperm samples to login, the better in my opinion.

I do not want to have to explain to another aged parent why they have different accounts for different sites - nevermind passwords.
