Forgot the password for my old RAR files, Want to try the passwords/keywords which I frequently use. How can I try them at once rather than typing them every single time for every .rar file?
  • Something like this should work on linux or mac. On windows you'll probably need to use wsl or convert it to powershell if you can't install the dependencies natively. The script requires bash, unrar, and find.

    #!/usr/bin/env bash
    while read -r rarfile; do
      while read -r password; do
        if unrar t -p"$password" "$rarfile" >/dev/null 2>&1; then
          echo "$rarfile $password"
          break
        fi
        echo "$rarfile password not found"
      done < /path/to/passwords.list
    done < <(find /path/to/rars -type f -iname '*.rar')
    
  • Android voicemail transcription app
  • If you have a homelab or vps you could try rolling your own with https://hub.docker.com/r/onerahmet/openai-whisper-asr-webservice for the transcription and a foss Tasker alternative for retreiving the voicemail when your dialler app posts a voicemail notification. If you don't have the capability to selfhost whisper, you'd probably have to sacrifice the illusion of privacy (your mobile carrier will always have access to any calls made over their network) and use a transcription service from google/microsoft/openai.

    Asterisk https://www.asterisk.org/ might be worth a look too (i.e. selfhost your voicemails)
