What are some of the dumbest things you try, when you password isn't working?
-
I try the same password and expect a different result.

If it's a password where I need to manually type like a PC login, I slowtype to make sure each character is pressed. I typically type fast so i might mistype at times.
if the password is registered to my password manager, sync up all the clients. If the password still doesn't work, there's something very wrong. This actually happened once, and I thought my database was compromised at first. Thankfully it was just EA being awful with their account security. Couldn't recover that account but I'm never touching any of their games if they can't keep user accounts safe anyways.

Fun story woke up one day was pretty out of it because morning brain. I went to check my phone and it required password to unlock Face ID (Apple lies about iPhones not randomly restarting) well my tired brain thought this one thing was for sure my password (it wasn’t) and I grew more and more annoyed and then I got locked out for more and more time. It got to the point where I was gonna brute force it with some
Program or another (dumb idea I know) finally I sanity checked myself and got back in.So how do I do it? Accuse it of lying about that not being my password type in the “same” password again and then it works

I couldn't get into my laptop that I hadn't used in half a year. I couldn't remember the password so I ended up just wiping it and starting over.
