- future15tbd, on 01/07/2009, -4/+213I guess "happiness" has its limits. Suggestion for those who don't know: Don't ever use ordinary english words for passwords.
- Rivetgeek, on 01/07/2009, -8/+215Mine is "god" nobody will guess that.

<AzureDiamond> oh, ok. - dtd00d, on 01/07/2009, -0/+145That's weird, it showed up as ******* to me.
- TheNik, on 01/07/2009, -1/+108My password is "password" because I figured it was simply too obvious to be guessed.
- theratster, on 01/07/2009, -1/+100Liar.
- BoneheadFarker, on 01/07/2009, -6/+102I'm burying this not because it's against Obama, but because that was just lame.
- chanop, on 01/07/2009, -6/+97My password is "Elephant" and I haven't been hacked yet. So much for your theory.
- 1kewldude, on 01/07/2009, -1/+84Hack the planet!
- minorgods, on 01/07/2009, -0/+79Oh *****, I better change my password from aardvark then.
- the2989, on 01/07/2009, -5/+84That Miley Cyrus hack was awesome...putting a video memorial of her on her own account claiming she died...i lol'd hard.
- ManUnitdFan, on 01/07/2009, -2/+77Next time Crystal will be smarter and just use "1234" as her password. Hackers will never think to try numbers.
- Kamioni, on 01/07/2009, -2/+76If that was required, the password would have been happiness1.
- Murdats, on 01/07/2009, -0/+65psychologically rick rolled
- inactive, on 01/07/2009, -11/+70Haha...Women....they cant drive or keep a strong password.
- pinniger, on 01/07/2009, -1/+60Only if you're hacking the Gibson and stealing garbage files.
- zip000, on 01/07/2009, -2/+57I - like a lot of people I now know - used "password" as my password for years because I thought it was clever and no one would think of it.
Of course, everyone thought of it.
I still use just "password" for things that I think don't matter at all or for throw away accounts...whenever the site will allow just "password" anyway.
...quickly goes to be sure that my digg password isn't "password"
EDIT to say, that yes my password for digg was password. fixed. - SemiSarcastic, on 01/07/2009, -1/+56"Would her holiness care to change her password?"
- koenigje, on 01/07/2009, -0/+53Ha==D
- CarStan, on 01/07/2009, -0/+52mine is eBGIQ7ZuuiU
somehow i've had memorized the whole ID at one point - Burento, on 01/07/2009, -33/+82So Digital Gangster didn't hack them after all.. interesting
- geoboy, on 01/07/2009, -0/+45*****. I saw that sequence of text and suddenly a Rick Astley music video started playing in my head.
- fajitamelt, on 01/07/2009, -15/+58Why are you being dugg down? The fact that the password was "happiness," as opposed to some random sequence that would be tough to crack is kind of funny, forcing you to laugh out loud, or, simply put, LOL.
- edrodgers731, on 01/07/2009, -0/+41That's wonderful. And completely trustworthy, too.
- cardyology, on 01/07/2009, -6/+44LOL
- Sean42, on 01/07/2009, -4/+42dude, that was such a lame attempt at comedy.
Seriously, grow up. - ohplease, on 01/07/2009, -0/+37
Any admin setting internet exposed passwords that fall to a dictionary attack should never touch anything involving authentication again ever. - inigomntoya, on 01/07/2009, -0/+34or happiness12 - depending on how many times he had been required to change his password...
- inactive, on 01/07/2009, -3/+37No combination of letters and numbers?
- visiblepulse, on 01/07/2009, -9/+43I don't have the problem of weak passwords. They are all complex and unique. http://sitepw.com/
It's a bookmarklet. - MRintheKeys, on 01/07/2009, -0/+31Damn, and the whole time I thought you just had to enter in a certain number of asterisks.
- DeathRay2K, on 01/07/2009, -5/+35What? GMZ (The hacker) is a member at Digital Gangster, and has been for a very long time.
- headzoo, on 01/07/2009, -2/+32I love that. You can put your Digg password in a comment, and it appears plain text to you, but as ***** (That's my password) to everyone else.
/runs off to bash.org - tidu, on 01/07/2009, -0/+29I use 'monkey' for a lot of stuff I don't care about because I'm a lazy *****
- robdiggity, on 01/07/2009, -0/+28I prefer "Reverse Cowgirl Coding" myself.
- Murdats, on 01/07/2009, -0/+27but what it really was was "thefirst35digetsofpi" wasn't it?
- skipdog172, on 01/07/2009, -15/+40This comment is NOT about me declaring how intelligent I am because I use complex passwords.
- solmakou, on 01/07/2009, -2/+27Prepare Space Ball One for immediate launch! and change the combination on my luggage!
- Bloodwine, on 01/07/2009, -1/+25Mnemonic passwords are awesome. Ever since I read about them on Slashdot years ago, I have used them for everything and promote their usage at my workplace.
The problem is that either your passwords are too easy or they are so complex that you write them down or store them in a file. Either way is a bad scenario.
For anybody who doesn't know how mnemonic passwords work, just pick a relevant phrase to the site, software, computer that you use. For instance, a good phase for Digg would be, "I spend too much time on Digg and I need to get out more". Then take the first letter of each word of the phrase, "i s t m t o d a i n t g o m". Then just replace a few of the letters with special characters, so you get, "! $ 2 m t 0 d @ ! n 2 g 0 m" (minus the spaces, of course).
They look complex, but if you make the phrase relevant to what you are logging in to, you can repeat it to yourself in your head as you type your password.
I have horrible memory, but I can keep track of all my mnemonic passwords in my head. - geodebug, on 01/07/2009, -1/+24ha_penis
