/g/, what are some good password management solutions?
I'd like to be able to use random character strings for all of my passwords, but there's no way I'd remember them all unless I either:
-wrote them down in a notebook somewhere (which I'd then have to carry with me everywhere, possibly resulting in it being lost or stolen), or
-use one of those password manager apps/sites (in which case I'm completely trusting someone else's security, AND creating a situation in which cracking just one master password results in everything being compromised.)
What do you /g/uys do?

I use keepassx. Cracking your master password isn't a realistic scenario, unless someone installs a keylogger on your machine (which shouldn't be likely to happen). Using a password manager site seems dumb, there is no good reason to upload a list of all of your passwords to someone else's server.

Keepass is the way to go.
I cuck myself and use lastpass however.
I like PasswordSafe.

I have an encrypted zip file with a text file inside.

Man I feel stupid. Somehow I never considered that local storage options existed.
Thanks, I'll look into these.
Keepass (or any of its forks). Its just as convienient as lastpass considering most users stay signed in on sites. Just use a good master password and lock your desktop with a good password when afk.

a common way to manage passwords is to have the same simple password everywhere. Here are some nice examples: password, p@ssw0rd, 123456.
The one I use is asdfjkl; just place your fingers in the home position on the keyboard and you will type it blazingly fast! Once a guy was so impressed of the speed that he asked me to do it over and over again to unlock my laptop. Sadly i lost the laptop shortly after that show, and now I use password instead. It is important to change passwords often, for security, I switch between the once above, but not for everything, because it takes time to do that. For my google accounts i simply have google, for faster accesstime,
