You are not restricted to 8 characters. I for example use a 2-character
pw at home (external logins only per ssh key). Or, you can also have
more than 8, if that was which you were complaining about. Heck, if you
think of your password being so annoying/worthless/nonprivate, just
write it onto a PostIt note and stick it on the screen.
