Mine is still memorizing phone numbers. I know the numbers to all my closest family members.
How do people who don’t memorize phone numbers get in touch with someone when their phone dies or they get arrested?
Unless you are really a jerk about it, the times I’ve been taken in, the officers let me take a number out my phone to make my one call. I’m a white passing Hispanic though so YMMV.
Don’t ever unlock your phone while in custody.
That won’t work for me because I permanently forget passwords when stressed.

My best friend’s number 20 years ago
Just straight up atrophied. Gone. Shriveled up like a raisin. Shriveled up like an old mans dusty balls.
Still remembering those phone numbers. They’re stuck in my head, even though those phone lines likely haven’t existed for at least 2 decades now.
Entering SMS OAuth codes instead
URLs and passwors?
We use password managers now. No need for that.
I still need password to login to machine then password to unlock the password manager, then at least in my work I use random software someone made that assigned me a random password to remember, and passwords for machines that are shared for specific tasks.
Always throws me off when I get back from a few days off becaus I forget everything and it takes me a minute to let my hands just fill passwords out of muscle memory
1000%
I go back to work tomorrow after almost two weeks off. First 15 minutes will be spent remembering those passwords.
Hands are AMAZING like that. At my last office I was the guy who had to call the external network admin whenever there was a problem. Used a desk phone to do it. I bet I could still dial his number faster than recite it
Aincha heard? All the kewl keeds are using passkeys nowadays. Whatcha gonna do wit’ that part o’ yer brain now?
Passkeys sorta rub me the wrong way. No password AND it’s on the same computer I’m trying to log in on anyway. It seems… Off somehow

Honestly? Same. Although supposedly Google added the ability recently to share them to other devices, the fact you couldn’t easily (if at all - I didn’t bother researching that much) do so before rang some alarm bells for me. Considering how dependent upon Google’s known capriciousness using them would make me, I’ve also declined to use them thus far. That’s why I made fun of them with the “kewl keeds” comment.
Fry it with drugs
Remembering my Grandma’s phone number from 25 years ago.
That part of my brain still contains the phone numbers it once memorized.

… Some I haven’t used in 40 years.
Oodles and oodles of obscure Vampire: The Masquerade lore I presume
Well
Unexpectedly that will soon be useful, I guess
Very expectedly. It was just in torpor.
I still remember my own phone number growing up. I couldn’t forget that if I tried. Actually, if I ever forget it that probably means I’m really getting old.
