I can make up a random password right now. Car model pops into mind... BMW M6. Remove the B, un-capitalise some letters: mWm6. Add the initials of someone; a friend; girlfriend; ex or whatever: mWm6EF. Add add a date I can remember and maybe mix up some of the numbers around: mWm6EF921. Done. How fast was that? simple.

Thank you Boat, you did a great job and deserve a cocktail.

Security alert: Orange. Password is not strong enough.

i bet you've got shit taste in cars
I use different passwords for everything so I just pick random car models that pop into mind; doesn't matter if I don't like the car model itself.

You're an intelligent lad, so tell me why in all that's holy I would put a good password for fucking Tuuba of all things. If we're talking about business email passes, important file passes, PC passes then that's what my post refers to. Why the fuck would I give a shit about pass security on a largely private forum? :p
I could've actually just said "tuuba security = Boat gif"
Oh well, missed chance.
My entire point was basically that if you use a bad password here, for the love of god don't use it elsewhere.
Anyway, I'll list the people who I found to have a bad (Bad as in crackable in ~30 minutes with a fairly rudimentary dictionary + ruleset attack using a GPU from 2013) tomorrow when I'm sober and at home again.

Tbh any password can easily be raped, was my point. Still no excuse to have a shitty one on your most important things.

stop teasing us and post the list already you faggot
oh and ps, crack my pass and you get my osu account for free!

So how do you make your secure/long passwords that are easy to remember?
I like to make patterns, based on rythms: Say... Star, Square, Star, Circle, Square, Square, Star, Square.
Now look at this:
7 8 9
4 5 6
1 2 3
183492761 = Star pattern on a calculator.
So then... 183492761793167294317936842397139713492761831793
Whew, lad. Thats a long ass password and would take ages to brute force even if the attacker knows you used only numbers, and you dont have to remember this insane number just a couple patterns.
For added fun, make some of these patterns as alt codes (which symbol/garbage that produces doesnt actually matter for you, but make sure the password can actually have alt code symbols.).
Im gonna eat a shoe if theres a rainbowtable using these patterns.
On tuuba though, i cba. I think i put some mess in here and just put save in browser. Who cares, not that this is important or confidental or anything.

Or you just use a password manager and randomly generated passwords.

Yeah, except most "random" password generators arent random at all. Most use the current time (in nanoseconds), cpu cycles or something as seed and sell that as "random". All you need is to figure out what algorythm these use and boom passwords = royally rekt.
Master password stuff also has the risk of... well if that one is cracked, EVERYTHING is gone. No... just no.

What people don't realise at all is that a strong password isn't one that's ofqhwbiot129125y1923htoqfjkmweogh3t18i932tq3hti9q3kFhQAWIWEGHBQ#8ti123th9123thnFFIKqHBNFIQwet1q23yht91234r5124hfgnEI"f but a password that's regularly changed. Little will your shitty 92 digit password do if you use it for 7 years.

Pretty sure it would take more than 7 years to crack a password like that.

A regulary changed password is not any more secure as one that is not... all it does is boot off people that already got it and kills crackers current progress of figuring your password out (assuming they dont simply use random order, which is fairly archiac but lucky motherfuckers exit).
Which is fairly moot if your password is so long it'd take a billon years or so to crack using a cluster of cutting edge tech. Which, frankly, no one of us ever will be attacked with, we're not that important.
What matters is: Symbol variety (letters, numbers, symbols altcodes... etc, the more you have available, the possibilities rise expotentially) and lenght (ditto, the longer, the more possibilities, expotentially) and those expotentially multiply each other.
