Due to my access to certain accounting functions within the whole system, I was required to change my password at frequent intervals. I created a "safe" password with the stuff you have listed, and a four digit number in the middle of it. At each password change I simply changed the number by 11. Less memorization that way, and I had the number only taped in a desk drawer. Not as safe as a completely random change each time, but with my memory (or lack thereof) it was certainly safer than having my complete password written somewhere accessible.

The random letters were the first initials of my mother and her seven siblings. Can't get much more random than that. :D
I have read up on what some of the most common things people do when creating passwords and I try to avoid those thing or do the opposite when possible. I have used a base and variations off of that. It just becomes difficult when I have one application and I have to have two different passwords for the two halves of it for no apparent reason.

Mom texted me to see if I was interested in a 4 year old male Boxer for free. Anybody have experience with Boxers? Biggest concern is how him and Sadie would get along.

How big is your place? Boxers aren't little.

I wait two ******* years to see my son on the mat again. Drive an hour to get there. Agree to do the radio call for three duals since the normal guy doesn’t know the kids. And he gets three MF forfeits. FORFEITS

3-0 to start the season! Was driving and heard part of the Clarion-Goldfield-Dows, IF/Alden, WC. IF/Alden beat WC which surprised me, CGD beat IFA, didn't hear the third results.

Successfully tested my baby "Le Petite" 2-quart Dutch oven this evening. Too small for you family folks but right sized for a single guy. Cooking friend mocked me for buying this small thingie but it was a super cheap doorbuster kinda giveaway thing. It looked cool so bought it.

So is that sliced apple or onion with the chicken or something else. Looks way better than the 2 day old leftover pizza I had.

Simple chicken and sliced potatoes and onions. Baked than browned for a few minutes under the broiler. Was a lemon chicken recipe that I deleted the lemon from. Did not seem like lemony potatoes would be that desirable. Kinda went pepper chicken.

I'm watching the 30 for 30 on Bob Knight and Indiana and it is really good. Not a great look for Indiana, but it's been a good documentary

Definitely not one-sided. They did not sugar coat what happened, and I think that's important for people to completely understand the entire incident and its fallout, as well as Knight's problems.

Dodgers lost their opening meet to Ankeny Centennial. Methinks at #4 they might be a bit overrated (even though they only lost by 1 point), but also think they will get better as the season progresses.

Comparing to what happened last season isn't fair, but still.........:rolleyes:

So not only has my organization required a minimum 16 character password for the last year that must include a capital letter, a lowercase letter, a number and a special symbol but even though I am on my third such password in less than a year they are requiring the entire organization to change their passwords at the start of the month. I know cybersecurity is a real thing, but when you go too far you have unsecure things like post it notes with the password on the computer or password documents with a person's every password in them undermining any security gains. It's not like we have nuclear launch codes here.
I keep all my passwords on a note card in my desk drawer with lots of lines crossing out old passwords. High security!

My wife just ordered an Instapot so I guess we're joining the pressure cooker fad.
