So basically the first part of that argument is tryingto rebuttal an argument I never made (I had already said that passphrases -so long as they are that and not just 2 concatenated words) are secure). And you're last part of that is also agreeing with me.
Internet arguments are fucking dumb. Half the time it's just miscommunication lol
FSCKING HELL. Okay, at this point I'm inclined to think you're just trolling, but one last swing...
Yes, the last bit was agreeing with you; the lead-in with "I couldn't agree more that..." was something of a clue.
Regarding the earlier pieces, you said in your original comment:
"That's another common misconception as that advice is only true for brute force attacks, which are usually only the last resort for password crackers. Dictionary attacks are pretty sophisticated these days so I really wouldn't gamble on a short list of common words being secure these days."
That is what I have been rebutting (in various forms, in various sub-threads), and it is incorrect. THE ENTROPY ESTIMATES IN THE COMIC ASSUME A MAXIMALLY 'SOPHISTICATED' DICTIONARY ATTACK, so "dictionary attacks are pretty sophisticated these days" is inane and misleading AT BEST. If you want to avoid miscommunication, communicate clearly, and either own what you say or say you were mistaken.
I WAS HUNGOVER AND TYPING ON A TOUCH SCREEN PHONE WHILE TRYING NOT TO THROW UP ON A MOVING BUS. Of course I was going to explain myself badly, I did after all appolagise for the confusion and tried to explain myself better but you've been too fucking stubborn to even care about what my point actually was.
I really don't know who many fucking times I need to say this before the penny finally drops for you. Or maybe you just prefer acting like a dick online? Perhaps you're the troll?
