Passwords

[fanf]

At lunch I was reminded of an old Demon root password. Like many places the admins at demon chose passwords by thinking of a memorable phrase and then obfuscating it. This particular password was obfuscated into a state of total punctuation, something like >$!=>:-)

Amusingly I quite recently saw the (in principle movable) object that inspired a root password I remember from nearly ten years ago, still abandoned in the same place it always was. (As far as I know there are no instances of this password left anywhere, but better safe than sued for negligently revealing it.)

It is an indication of my inherent perversion that I thought of the smiley of a ... smug bloke. Definitely bloke.
