    I’m a glorified locksmith for magic wiz boxes. Technically I do other things as well, but mostly it’s just getting past the locks that people have lost the key for.

    There are also magical entities that take works from the nether realm and bring them into existence here, only they are all powered by grumpy demons and so I don’t deal with those.

      Can I ask your advice about some home locksmithing? I have a problem involving a password protected zip file from ten years ago, and a vault from an old Android password manager like keepassX or something. I have tried learning how to use johntheripper, but I want able to narrow down any of the parameters, so it was just doing the broadest brute force approach possible, which didn’t seem likely to work within my lifetime…
