    NordPass’s annual password trend report confirmed what we all suspected – Gen Z is worse than Boomers when it comes to using insecure passwords (if you’re looking for strong passwords, just use Home Assistant’s hardware names and they’ll be uncrackable)

    I believe in long, complex, and complicated passwords. One of the things I’ve taught myself is how to create long, complex, and complicated THAT I CAN REMEMBER! Making long, complex passwords is a snap. Remembering them is where it’s at. Cue relevant xkcd cartoon. At my age, that can be quite the trick.
