Hahahahaahahahahahhaha "♥♥♥♥ the policia" ahhahahahhahahhaa...
But really, my password is a code which no one can figure out. I made a new password, but I don't want to change it, and it is a code with numbers only, its starts with 1 and ends with 90419... oops, better stop. No, that ain't my cell phone number :)
EDIT: You think I don't know about this?
That video was awesome!

If you only use numbers your password is so easily bruteforceable you have no idea. Adding letters adds another 26 or so characters depending on type set. Which gives you 36^N (62^N if you use a mix of upper and lowercase) possibilities instead of 10^N, N being your password length. This is a difference between roughly 2.18 * 10^14 combinations and 10^8 combinations for a 8 character long password. Or a bit over a day to bruteforce your numbers and around 7000 thousand years to bruteforce the one with a mixture of upper and lowercase letters as well as numbers. At 1000 tries per second. This i asssuming it has to try every combination before getting a hit. Even if you say that it goes 10 times as fast. It's still 700 years to bruteforce the strong password.

TL;DR

A numbers-upper-and-lowercase-letters password of 8 characters length is around 2 million times better
A numbers-upper-and-lowercase-letters password of 9 characters length is around 13 million times better

I love reading this kind of thing because it's fascinating, but I could never actually figure out how to do any of it.

In reality you're more likely to get hit by a dictionary attack where they try different combinations of real words. This is a lot faster assuming the password contains actual words. Also, adding an arbitrary unicode character if it is allowed catapults your password into insane amounts of bruteforce security

edit: Actually, ♥♥♥♥ that. Keylogging is the way to go.

Guys. I've never really been into any sports, but today I found out that I'm pretty athletic. I was riding my bike at a park, like I usually do now and then, and the seat broke, so I had to walk it home.

On the way back home, I saw a ton of kids my age, and their families having a sports meet, like I usually see most weekdays. They had football, track, baseball and they also apparently had some sort of cheerleader practice. It looked like they were actually playing, not just practicing. I had the soundtrack from DOOM on my mp3 player, it got me really pumped up, so I just decided to ditch the bike and just start sprinting as fast as I could. I outran the football players, AND the people running track, and I just kept on running until I got home. I was barely tired.

I know it sounds like I'm just making stuff up, since this IS the internet, but I'm really serious. Maybe I could enter some competitions, and wear a shirt that says "DATA REALMS FAN FORUMS".
