alt Hacker NewsYou can generate "pronounceable" passwords in some tools.
1PW just generated this for me: mimp-rort-jan-mon-kain-sqin
Not as much entropy as 24 random letters/digit/punctuations/capitalisation. But (for me at least) much easier to read end type in situations where copy/paste isn't available (like from my phone to my dev docker containers)

Yes but parent was saying use passphrases, which is the same, just more like "correct horse battery staple". Parent then correctly pointed out there are a large number of sites that enforce special characters, numerical digits, etc., also being part of the password. So that idea falls apart very quickly in practice.
