"encrypt your download links to prevent leechers" -- "encrypting" links with this would be a pain in the ass when you can't perform the reverse process.

Because it's awesome. It may be subjective but it's the weekend and it's a cool site.

It's useful for passwords if you use a password manager or equivalent technology.

[apgwoz]

Increasing the alphabet for passwords doesn't really make your password stronger than if you would just increase it's length by a character or two, or better yet three or four. But, given that I can't imagine too many password crackers checking for more than a couple common extended characters, it's probably not that bad. Still doesn't excuse passwords like pɹoʍssɐd though.

[mattmaroon]

Every password manager I've used (granted only a few) will generate random ones for you. Is this significantly more secure than a random 18 character string?

[jmatt]

Of course,

These characters aren't easily type-able and most password crackers that I've seen use common ascii/ansi characters not obscure characters like this... It's all relative I guess. There obviously exists a case where these characters aren't helpful.

[mattmaroon]

Can you realistically crack an 18 character random string, even if you know the character set? I mean, I realize that technically increasing the character set would make it harder, but for any web-based service cracking something with 62^18 (or more if other characters are used) possible combinations is impossible in the real world.

It's useful for passwords if you use a password manager or equivalent technology.

What? Why?

You can ofcourse unflip it by typing the flipped text in the first box.
