I get the joke.
But related real talk phones get got a lot. They won’t need to steal your phone they’ll just hack it like every other computer on the planet.
You don’t have to look much for the evidence.

I know. I’m that guy. Brave has sync now. They finally fixed it. ¯\_/(ツ)_/¯
Mainframes and old databases? It was 98/99 not 88/89. I spent all my time updating Netscape navigator, Windows and Java in my IT job for a fortune 500. I’m sure someone was still running crazy old stuff, someone always is, but it was solidly the age of the internet by then. I had a cable modem by that time.
Similar to what others have said you need to make some changes. Figure out how the game works. Get educated. Find a new job, get certs, go back to school, rehab your credit, find a cheaper place, make moves.
As monstrous as it is yyyy-mm-dd could also be misconstrued by said unfortunate Americans as yyyy-dd-mm because…well…yeah. As noted elsewhere this dd mmm yyyy format also works nicely in written and verbal communication as 12th of august where no one ever is going to write or speak to each other twenty twenty three august twelfth. So again, more universal and less ambiguous.

Lot of talk of numerics only. The problem there is knowing what format the information is in since clearly there are 3 possibilities. Without context and during certain parts of the month you’re hosed. Best to remove ambiguity and go with the alpha numeric format.
DD MMM YY (or alternatively YYYY)

Ambiguity gone.
For anyone curious about those audits. https://bitwarden.com/help/is-bitwarden-audited/
As with most things security it’s about assessing your risk.
If you’re a granny with a hand full of passwords then a notebook is probably fine.
I think for most people, who aren’t CEOs, high value employees, or some kind of holder of the keys to a kingdom beyond their personal bank account, a solid full e2ee password manager that’s cloud synced is a nice middle ground of security vs convenience. It beats a post it under keyboard or a notebook left on the night stand.
For those CEOs, or high value employees then something offline is in order. Or as I’ve seen others note perhaps a combo of full offline and cloud synced for less important logins.
I recommend Bitwarden as others have here. It seems to be the one that’s come through unscathed thus far and the company behind it seems to be making the right moves to stay ahead of risks. https://bitwarden.com/help/is-bitwarden-audited/
Sure can!
