Amazon mails to change your password every three months. How does one come up new passwords every three months?

Using a password manager. Most include functionality to re-generate/rotate a record's password in-place, and then copy the new one to the clipboard (or even directly into the web page).

I use 1Password and even though I agree that forced password rotation is dumb, this makes it painless.
