LastPass users are once again being warned about stolen personal data, though this time the breach happened through one of the company’s outside partners.
Sure if it’s possible for you then it must be possible for everyone 😐. I’m sure that this will work for my ass. It’s not like I know from experience that I will forget anything of importance if I don’t write it down.
I keep a journal and a commonplace book (and a self hosted password manager) to remember anything of importance for no reason at all, silly me should have just remembered it. I just need to pull myself up by my bootstraps and stop being lazy duh.
You can do it. That’s my point. Yes it takes time. Yes it takes patience. Yes it takes practice.
Your brain is an incredible machine capable of so many things, much more by far than a computer.
Computers are chunks of silicon. They do basic addition. They just do it so much quicker is all.
Yours is superior. Keep it exercised.
I do keep a cheat sheet of clues. Things that I write to remind me of the actual phrase, but I rarely need it. Make a point to memorize 10 a week. Custom photo screensavers (I use jpeg Saver 5.3 by Goat 1000) are great for flash cards. I find writing it out to be the best way to learn, but reading is my second, and listening is third (but rather poor considering I lose focus and miss bits). Try to learn how you learn best and exploit that. I used to have an old braintest that was incredibly accurate. It would tell you whether you were more inclined for audio or visual learning. It also defined your brains inclination to be left hemispheric or right hemispheric in its dominance. It was called brainworks. I think it ran on windows 95. For sure Windows 98SE.
Honestly, a lot of the ones I ended up needing to lookup or reset were the ones that are restricted with a maximum length and I cant use an entire phrase. That just jambs up my plumbing, if you know what I mean.
Hey, don’t use a password manager like KeePass, because brain is the only safe place to store passwords. In order to do that, WRITE THEM ON FLASH CARDS to memorize them and then THROW THEM AWAY
I probably have around 100 accounts that I’d need to remember the passwords to, that’s not possible while keeping them actually decent and unique.
It is possible. I have 78 unique passphrases. You only need to train your brain and not turn it over to a machine.

Flashcards. Write down your credentials and memorize them. Throw them away willy nilly when you’re done.

Tell me it was a joke
Flashcards are your brains friend. They are no joke.
That would work, if I had like ten or twenty of them to remember.
No amount of studying is gonna make me remember almost a hundred strings of 24 random characters, and what string goes to what account
Don’t use random characters. Use absurd phrases that mean something to you.
It was supposed to be joke 😔
Damn, I see that now. The heat wave is making me stupid, my brain isn’t made for 35C
