Won't matter.

Yes, that's why I kept it short and sweet. No sense in spending a lot of time, effort, or energy there.

To be fair, some women have little libido, and I know what that's like. But I've definitely been the one trying and failing to keep up, in other cases.

I wonder though, does the study take into account the non-trivial number of people who simply don't have a sex life? It is pretty easy to give up something you aren't getting anyhow.

I'm assuming that they didn't count masturbation as sex either. What got me wondering was that the survey also included questions about giving up a favorite food. People were apparently willing to give up on that for only a month. That is showing some priorities perhaps? To give up only a favorite food - not going without.

To the present bitchfest about female sex drive and a little more info than the Huffington post article gave us https://blog.dashlane.com/stud... :

"Women are more likely than men to sacrifice a year of sex in exchange for online peace of mind (44% vs. 34% of men).

Two in five millennials (43%) say they’d also give up sex for online security.

That last number was what got me to thinking about likely flaws in the study. We have heard much on now many millennial males have simply given up on women. Perhaps this is just being willing to give up on something you don't have in the first place.

Damn, I like the free version of LastPass... a lot. I do not like any of the services that LogMeIn offers (I've run the office account).

Sooooo /. hivemind... are there any alternatives to LastPass out there? Any strong words re: https://www.dashlane.com/passw... ?

I use Sticky Password by Lamantine Software, a Czech company. It uses a locally encrypted data base with option for additionally encrypted sync to other devices. However I also keep my Keepass database fully up to date just in case they do something to piss me off. My main complaint about Sticky is their lack of a decent manual, not good enough for a security program.

Here's a link to the longer trial
https://www.dashlane.com/en/cs...

I use Dashlane https://www.dashlane.com/en/cs... (for 6 month free trial)

I have it on my computer at home, my phone and the website at work.

It's pass phrase encrypted so they claim they can't decrypt the passwords without your passphrase.

Really works well for me.

Dashlane has proven to be a great password manager for me.

https://www.dashlane.com/en/cs... - (for free premium trial of 6 months vs 1 month)

Have the client on my home computer and phone so i can get to passwords there, and at work i use the website (so I don't get written up for unapproved software...)

It has password generators built in and alerts you when sites report they were hacked so you can change passwords before it hits the major news. Really made password management easy for me. I tried it on a Clark Howard suggestion initially.

66% accept notoriously weak passwords such as "123456" or "password"

How should a web site determine whether a given password is "notoriously weak"?

66% make no attempt to block entry after 10 incorrect password entries

Where does "10" come from, and how long should entry be blocked? We don't want customers to become ex-customers when they discover that they have to make international telephone calls at a dollar per minute or more to get their accounts unblocked.

60% do not provide any advice on how to create a strong password during signup

One site I manage uses the following, with a link to Wikipedia's page about password strength and xkcd's comic about passphrases: "Either 8 or more characters using at least one letter and one digit or a phrase of 16 or more characters using at least one letter, and not easy to guess"

and only 14% display a password meter

I don't know how it's possible to "display a password meter" to users of NoScript.
