I can often dig into the source and quickly figure out what’s broken.
And for the 99.9% of humanity for whom that is either impossible, or a dreadful slog,
On Windows, I’m usually shit outta luck. Gotta trawl through tons of messy forums and bullshit SEO-optimised blogspam sites

I’d give him a significantly better than average chance of being for real. I have several friends who work in a local biotech lab who’ve watched his videos from whom the responses have been along the lines of “Huh, yeah, I suppose you could do it that way, if you had no money and lots of know-how…”

I have regular nerd-arguments about it:
“All they have to do is break two of your passwords, and they can reverse-engineer your passwords!” - Maybe, if they have a super-computer… “It’s so much work” - Once. It’s so much work once. Then, it’s much easier than loading software or digging out a dongle every time you log into anything up until you decide to change all your algorithms… “What happens if you forget?” - What happens if you forget?
But my ex was really crazy. You gotta hear this!
This is the situation I’m in. Half-a-dozen clients in the energy and automotive industries, each with multiple security regimes and short timeouts. Passwords mutate with time and I stay sane…
I don’t like to keep any security stuff in “the cloud”, written down anywhere, or even on my own devices. It’s too easy to lose everything after one security breach.
Instead, I use password algorithms seeded from both the service name/identifier and one or more private passwords. This lets me keep thousands of service/site unique passwords in my head just by memorizing twenty or so words.
See the other answers for why this isn’t really right, but given 4 dimensional spacetime, if that ‘pixel’ did exist, it would look like a hypercube/tessaract. A constantly stretching and twisting but approximate one, anyway.
