1. Replaces words removed by pull 6914 <23b9e35de9
> for possible offense. This restores the total word count.
Add replacement: grope -> . . . -> grouch
Change: hardcopy -> hardcopy -> hardback
Replace: hardcore -> . . . -> hardball
(I couldn't see "hardcopy" as a single word in American dictionaries from the turn of the century. It's too much of a neologism [and if we can't have "hardcore," then there's nothing else I can fit in that gap]. I had to remove another word to allow the addition of two new words here to preserve ordering. It's also an improvement because "hardcopy" is not a single word in dictionaries older than a decade or so.)
Add replacement: swinger -> . . . -> swindle
2. Yo-yo and yoyo are two spelling of the same exact word, and the latter spelling is "non-standard."
Keeping: yo-yo (t-shirt is the one other hyphenated word and I can't find a suitable candidate for either without creating several conflicts on the long wordlist)
Change: yoyo -> young
3. Word repetition: two spellings of same word hankie.
Keeping: hankie (as the "correct" spelling because "hanky" is more common in "hanky-panky").
Change: hanky -> hanoi
(The other option was to insert "hansom" between "hanky" and "haphazard," but "handsome" is a homophone because the "d" became silent many years ago.)
4. Changed proper nouns and brand names to regular nouns:
dropbox -> dropforge
ebay -> eaves
google -> goosey as in "loosey-goosey" (the real word is "googol," anyhow)
This necessitated changing goon -> gooseneck
ipad -> iota
iphone -> ire
ipod -> iridium
This necessitated irate -> iris
kleenex -> knack (the word "tissue" exists)
lego -> legitimate
xbox -> xenon (which sounds like x box or x-box, too)
Keeping: xerox (now genericized like aspirin)
5. Replaced non-standard words around "drop" and the brand name in there
drop-down -> drop-in
ebook -> (genericized like "email")
ecard -> echelon
This necessitated eccentric -> echidna
harddisk -> hardedge (Hardedge is an art style. Hard disk is always two words or else is abbreviated as HDD for hard disk drive)
6. Replaced flirtatious activity
footsie -> footstool
Which necessitated making footsore -> footway
7. Potentially sensitive anatomy
gonad -> golly
siamese -> sial (Siamese = Thai, but "twins" is also on the list and "Siamese" could precede "twins," which is slur for conjoined twins.)
8. Politically sensitive
islamist -> island (An Islamist is someone who wants to enforce political Islam on all with a literal and conservative interpretation of the Qu'ran. It does not mean Muslim.)
marxism -> marzipan (I'm a big old lefty, myself, but I need to be consistent)
********
These necessitated a couple changes to nearby words where a drop-in replacement word did not exist, which required shifting neighboring words slightly.
Alphabetical order preserved and total word count should match EFF's modified and the original Diceware list. No breaking changes.
KeePassXC
KeePassXC is a modern, secure, and open-source password manager that stores and manages your most sensitive information. You can run KeePassXC on Windows, macOS, and Linux systems. KeePassXC is for people with extremely high demands of secure personal data management. It saves many different types of information, such as usernames, passwords, URLs, attachments, and notes in an offline, encrypted file that can be stored in any location, including private and public cloud solutions. For easy identification and management, user-defined titles and icons can be specified for entries. In addition, entries are sorted into customizable groups. An integrated search function allows you to use advanced patterns to easily find any entry in your database. A customizable, fast, and easy-to-use password generator utility allows you to create passwords with any combination of characters or easy to remember passphrases.
Quick Start
The QuickStart Guide gets you started using KeePassXC on your Windows, macOS, or Linux computer using pre-compiled binaries from the downloads page. Additionally, individual Linux distributions may ship their own versions, so please check your distribution's package list to see if KeePassXC is available. Detailed documentation is available in the User Guide.
