    I’d forget that so hard.

    I used to be able to memorize random sequences of numbers when I was young, but my brain doesn’t do that tedious shit any more.

      Password manager is the way. It’s recommended for all password related things anyway.

        Maybe it was just because it was the time before smartphones and it was actually necessary to remember phone numbers, credit card numbers, account numbers, addresses, etc. All that is offloaded to a device now.

        I still remember some old addresses, SSNs, and pre-Internet bank account details.

          Hehe, I memorised all my family’s phone numbers as a child. Do all children have devices now?

            My family’s “phone numbers” were just one phone number, because we had one telephone in the house.

            From what I understand, most children do have devices now.
