They recruit people for it by hanging around family courts looking for willing victims participants, offer them travel, hotel stay and expenses.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Are you sure? I thought they'd meet them through the likes of Rotarians, Woman's Institute and Bible Study Groups.

A TV programme full of scummy people with Kyle being the scummiest. The man is vile. Though everytime I'm off work I watch it just so I can hate him that little bit more.

There is nothing like judging other people to make one feel better about oneself.
He was bound to have problems - he makes a career out of judging people...

I didn't know there was a "Sleep" button on my keyboard.
He did.
All I know is my monitors went blank without the PC shutting down...
Worked out it was sleep mode, and woke it up - only to be presented with the login screen.
Do I know my MS password? Do I heck as like! I know it's a GUID, but that doesn't help much.
I keep it in a file and access it via an application ... which runs on my PC ... ah.
No problem! I can access the file from the backup on the NAS.
Except...it's encrypted and I need the app to decrypt it...
So I tried "Restart" and ... it worked, once it had installed a bunch of "this morning" updates. And it doesn't ask for my password, because I have that turned off. And now Sleep won't either, and I have a copy of my password on my tablet.
This has "one of those days" written all over it.

In one company, a neighbourhood cat adopted me and would like to sit on my lap, he was pretty large though so one day, while turning around, his backend hit the series of keys that made the display rotate clockwise. First time I'd ever seen that.
One evening at home, I suddenly hear very creepy music I don't recognize coming from my office. Get up there to find my girl cat peacefully loafing on the laptop having turned it to airplane mode and located a game soundtrack I didn't even know I had.

Why go for all that trouble - simply ask the cat fro the password
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Because he's a cat - he'll want Scampi in copious quantities for that information!

My cat gets on the chair behind me and I end up on the front edge before I banish him. At which point he comes back and gets behind me again.
He also looks over my shoulder to watch me typing or playing solitaire. 
Mongo: Mongo only pawn... in game of life.
|
|
|
|
|
Playing solitaire? is he any good at it?
least it stops him looking over your shoulder
You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start
Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.

Further evidence, if any was needed, that cats are evil.

What is the point of having a GUID as a password, if you do not need to type it in when you start your computer ?
|
|

All my passwords are GUIDs - and I never type them! The idea is that I don't end up with the same password on two different system, so a security failure at the other end only compromises the one site.
I have an application that manages them all for me, and I just copy'n'paste them in. It's a habit now: I need a password for this new site - run GetGUID which is just a C# app to generate a guid and copy it to the clipboard, set the site, save it in the app. The app encrypts the data, so the only password I need to remember is the one for the app.
The PC in in my house, Herself is free to use it if she wants, and there is nothing on there that isn't encrypted that needs to be secure. I have good backups, so why hassle myself with a startup password?

But do you have access to your email from another location/other computer then ? Or to your bank ?
|
|
|
|

My Email is configured to read on my tablet, and my bank I only access from the PC (it's the safest place, given that I know what anti-virus and anti-keylogger stuff is on it).

Do you log your anti-keys ?

|

No, I flog them.
There's quite a profit to be made selling antikeys - it's just like anti-matter for information.

Well that narrows down the number of passwords we need to try to hack your account! 
We know they're all the same length, and they only contain 0-9 and either A-F or a-f. Depending on what type of GUID you've generated, and whether you generated them all on the same computer, they probably all contain the same prefix too.

Besides what Rage already stated, the XKCD[^] reference.

Ironically, I use passphrases since I came across this XKCD. Works like a charm *.
* The ease to remember part. The secure part I do not know, but I haven't been hacked so far.
