A notebook at home would suffice, but it’s not great for the same reason as word based passwords.
I'm aware. I've explained it elsewhere, but having dealt with irrationally tech adverse older people myself, I've learned sometimes decent solutions they'll actually use are better than great ones they'll resist. I've found that any new software, like a password manager, no matter how user friendly and logical is treated with suspicion and disdain.
I've been rewatching The X-Files. I just finished the 'Tempus Fugit'/'Max' two parter. It is one of my favorite non-comedy episodes. It is wonderful in having a conspiracy within a conspiracy, intersecting character motivations, and dead serious stakes and presentation. It works as a mytharc, sequel to a stand alone episode, or just a stand alone story on its own depending on how you want to watch it.
The visuals are honestly haunting.
Sure the NRA are also a bunch of corrupt, self-centered boomers. Looks less like funneling money and more like peddling connections, which isn't any better.
My point above by calling them an industry lobbying group is that they present themselves as a rights group, but when it comes to firearms related causes they have a history of speaking up loudly when it will affect the domestic gun industry and saying very little when it is a firearms issue that won't negatively affect domestic gun companies finances.
We haven't had one. It wasn't here when I got here and honestly it's not occurred to me.
I'll put in a rule to mark spoilers in thread titles and blur any spoiler images. For fairness I won't forcibly apply it retroactively, but will ask community members to voluntarily edit existing posts.
edit: rule up. I'll refine it later but it's up. Contacted community member about spoiler safing their post.
While being aware that leaking passwords and reusing them is a major risk, I was just asking about the construction of the password as it relates to being attacked directly.
But also, no one wants to try to remember a hundred different unique passwords so it’s also a good idea to use a password manager.
Absolutely. I recommended the notebook approach only because I think people of a certain mindset would be more open to it than a password manager, even if it isn't as elegant of a solution. At the end of the day it still diversifies passwords. I'm vividly picturing my mom throwing a fit any time a doctor or other office wants her to fill out a form on a tablet instead of paper.
I'm going to be real. I was part way through an explanation before I deleted it. What you are dealing with sounds like a situation where you simply won't win by using logic. To continue to labor under the presumption that a good and logical reasoning will have an effect is just going to stress you out and achieve nothing.
Google password because I recommended against it being a word.
IT nerds help me out here, but I've been under the impression that the best defense against brute force attacks is a very long password, and the idea of sprinkling in special characters or numbers is outdated. Something like "iwenttothestoreandboughtabirthdaycake" is a more secure password than "$6jds_*WghP6".
edit: Also the mantra to never write down any passwords is more of a workplace piece of advice. I personally think, and this would probably be helpful for older people, that writing down passwords in a notebook which is kept secure in their home is pretty safe. Short of a home invasion, that notebook is safe, and having it can encourage them to diversify their passwords on different accounts. So, if you are going to keep at the issue, taking an angle of using something they are more comfortable with like a paper notebook is going to be accepted more easily than trying to sell them on a password manager or something.
Again, not an NRA fan here. They are a domestic industry lobby group, so things like the bumpstock ban or even red flag laws are small potatoes to the domestic gun industry overall. The NRA tends to really push when it is the sort of law or statement that will affect something big in relation to domestic industry. Concealed carry focused products (subcompact handguns, compact handguns, and accessories) is an entire branch of the industry that many major gun companies participate in, so from an industry lobby perspective they are motivated to protect it. It also helps them from a PR perspective that they are on the same side as somebody who got shot, rather than trying to march uphill in the discussion after a shooting using whatever gun or accessory is in the discussion's crosshairs.
The NRA pushed back on Trump on the same day (Jan 27) that he made his anti-carry comments.
Somehow Gavin Newsom ended up cheering on the NRA, so that's the timeline we're in.
I'm no fan of the NRA (due to them being a domestic industry lobbying group dressed up as a rights group), but if this is in reference to recent news, they've actually pushed back against Trump on the issue of public carry.
It's not a "Christian game", its a game where the setting is a violent, fractured place and Christianity has a large in-universe footprint, influencing factions.
Iron Tower Studio games makes quite good RPGs.
