I wanted to create a new secure passphrase for my WLAN (Wi-Fi).

It's always an option to use the password generator built into my password
manager, however I wanted to take this opportunity to employ _Diceware_:

> Diceware Password Generator
> Generate high-entropy passwords the easy way!

The original source has the best explanation: https://diceware.dmuth.org/.

Or you could read [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diceware) as well.

For example, for this post:

> ScratchObscureTrendHumiliate
>
> Number of possible passwords:
> 3 quadrillion

Good (and memorable!) enough for me.
