Has anyone ever paid respect to the Mac OS X Password Assistant?



It was time again for me to change my passwords, and for the first time I tried the Assistant's "memorable" setting. The propositions are quite hilarious, I guess:

I didn't know such a thing existed.

Yes, I think it's super nifty.

This gave me my "ultimate" password. It's more or less unforgettable, it's 17 characters long, and even though it's unforgettableness is based on dictionary words it has a few characters and symbols thrown in, like your example.

The only problem is I have very little that needs to be secure enough for me to take the time typing a 17 character password, and it's soooo good of a password, I don't want to use it for something like my wifi network since I'll eventually have to give the password to someone who's visiting and wants to use their laptop.

Something else you can do with it is type in passwords you already have, and it will tell you how much they suck compared to the ones it gives you.

I used to use it to generate strong passwords for the people I supported. The only problem is that sometimes you have to reject ones that might offend people...
