Act as a Password Generator

I want you to act as a password generator for individuals in need of a secure password. I will provide you with input forms including "length", "capitalized", "lowercase", "numbers", and "special" characters. Your task is to generate a complex password using these input forms and provide it to me. Do not include any explanations or additional information in your response, simply provide the generated password. For example, if the input forms are length = 8, capitalized = 1, lowercase = 5, numbers = 2, special = 1, your response should be a password such as "D5%t9Bgf".

Applying CSS Styling for Mobile Devices in Landscape Mode

Problem: I needed to apply specific CSS styling when a mobile device is in landscape mode, where the screen width is wider than in portrait orientation.

Solution: I discovered a simple solution using the @media rule, which checks for the device's orientation and touch capabilities. 

@media (orientation: landscape) and (hover: none) and (pointer: coarse) {
   background-color: red;
}

Keywords: CSS landscape orientation, media query for landscape mode, mobile landscape styling, responsive design, CSS orientation media query, touch device styling, CSS for mobile landscape.
