I'm asking how long I need to bash my keyboard for until this random string becomes a secure password

I mean, if it's 100 characters, that's fine by me. It hardly takes any time

@qntm call it 3 bits per keystroke? 20 characters of random mashing will give a 60-bit password, which is plenty.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@toph_wells Nope, I'm really asking. I'm curious to know how secure it is to just pseudorandomly hit keys until the string is long
