I still need password to login to machine then password to unlock the password manager, then at least in my work I use random software someone made that assigned me a random password to remember, and passwords for machines that are shared for specific tasks.
Always throws me off when I get back from a few days off becaus I forget everything and it takes me a minute to let my hands just fill passwords out of muscle memory
Hands are AMAZING like that. At my last office I was the guy who had to call the external network admin whenever there was a problem. Used a desk phone to do it. I bet I could still dial his number faster than recite it
Honestly? Same. Although supposedly Google added the ability recently to share them to other devices, the fact you couldn’t easily (if at all - I didn’t bother researching that much) do so before rang some alarm bells for me. Considering how dependent upon Google’s known capriciousness using them would make me, I’ve also declined to use them thus far. That’s why I made fun of them with the “kewl keeds” comment.
URLs and passwors?
We use password managers now. No need for that.

I go back to work tomorrow after almost two weeks off. First 15 minutes will be spent remembering those passwords.

Aincha heard? All the kewl keeds are using passkeys nowadays. Whatcha gonna do wit’ that part o’ yer brain now?
Passkeys sorta rub me the wrong way. No password AND it’s on the same computer I’m trying to log in on anyway. It seems… Off somehow
