[ubuntu-za] Passwords - Bah humbug!

So I have my second computer running nicely on 14.04.

I decide that I had better have a second user name on it - just in case I
break something.

So I make a new user name.

I try to set the password TO THE SAME PASSWORD AS THE ACCOUNT I ALREADY
HAVE!

No - too weak.

So I use the password that I use for all the silly accounts that insist I
have a strong password but which I really don't care if the world hacks
into. Every other password checker says "Strong".

"Not good enough".

Seriously - here is some 12 year old geek telling me that my password is
not good enough. 12? Mental maturity 8.

If it is any business of those twits in Canonical - this computer is never
on line except when I am installing software. It has nothing worth hacking
into (unless you want a history of how not to install new operating
systems. If I want to open it to the world I will.

AND IT IS NONE OF THEIR BLOODY BUSINESS!

Sorry all. Had to get it off my chest.

Bill

PS - I have loved Ubuntu for 8 years now. I now love Unity. But I hate
twits.
