On the subject of passwords, is it cool if I link you guys to my command line passphrase generator utility?

It's fast, secure and open source.

I did something very similar but had the thought that making the passphrase be based on an existing word would make a good balance between security and ease of remembering without a password manager.

Of course it isn’t as strong as a purely random passphrase but hopefully it would be strong enough and still better than choosing your own password
