You can probably even make this a policy at your company. Edit: I thought this was an obvious enough joke, but just to clear things up: Only do this if you hate your company and everyone working there.
[–] PlexSheep@feddit.de 8 points 2 years ago (1 child) Longer passwords make your passwords exponentially more secure, in terms of security bits. Length matters. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] IsoKiero@sopuli.xyz 7 points 2 years ago True, and for most credentials I of course use password manager, but things like workstation password are still something I need to manually type out and for those 65 random characters aren't really practical. And for those I use things like 'HorseBattery69+' instead of 'SalainenSäläsänä69+' since while they (could be) equally long and complex the latter is pretty much impossible to type out if keyboard setting is something else than finnish (swedish works too I think). permalink fedilink source parent
