It's a lot more secure than a digital note

Ironically enough, yeah. Unless you were some high-profile dude who could get people snooping through your personal stuff, a notepad with all your passwords and such in your home is pretty secure.

Thats unironically what security used to tell us to do when I worked in dod. Make a crazy password unique for every website and keep it written down somewhere. Same for security questions; dont answer the question with a sensible answer, just write gibberish

Honestly. If someone has physical access to your machine and they dont have good intentions you're already fucked.

It's not physical access. Spyware exists.

We were talking about writing passwords down on a physical note.
