upgrade to, “Admin1!”
I think I can say this now because it’s been 10 years. But in one of my old jobs, I set a new windows administrator password for all assets across the organization. Previously it was 8 characters with a known word with an exclamation point added at the end.
I got the approval to set a new password that would be secure but easy to remember for the IT guys that would be using it on a daily basis. They complained about my first two choices, so I said fuck it and changed it to F0rH315ThEKwi$atzHad3rach!
I could remember it just fine. Still do to this day lol. They complained about a 14 character password before and I was tired of trying to get them on board.
As soon as I left for greener pastures, I heard they changed the password to something easy again. Oh well, not my problem anymore.
For he is the kwisatzhaderach?
Yeah, a reference to Dune. I had just re-read the first three books and it came to me.
Didn’t you work at NASA ?
No? Not sure where you got that from lol.
