Sad Sad day

I have to abandon one of my passwords - someone accidentally saw it when typeahead was behaving slowly… One of the ones that I use in lots of places. It’s a sad sad day.

I’ve been using that password (and various forms of it) for well over a decade. I guess I’ll have to ressurect an old one, or come up with a new one or something. :(

Fortunately it’s not one of my “secure” passwords - I’ve got various levels of password security - I can usually guess which one I used based on my opinion of how secure it needs to be. Still, it’ll take me a while to change it everywhere that I use it. I really want some sort of identity dongle that I can carry around and use instead of remembering passwords and typing them in. Even some sort of thumbprint scanner, It’s not like the stuff most passwords are protecting are that valuable though.
