How to extract playlists (list of file locations) from iTunes using python – Stack Overflow
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/12/18
While migrating from iTunes on one machine to Apple Music on another one, I needed to migrate part of the (disorganised) playlists.
I knew there was a binary ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Library.itl file, but that is encoded or encrypted, making it hard to parse.
Luckily there is also ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music Library.xml which I found via the links below.
- [Wayback/Archive] What file holds my itunes playlists – Apple Community
- [Wayback/Archive] How to extract playlists (list of file locations) from iTunes using python – Stack Overflow
The iTunes library xml file is in the same directory as the .itl file. The file is in Apple plist format, and Python’s standard library has a good parser for it.

Markdown has been the Internet’s lingua franca for documentation. Microsoft finally the documentation format with markitdown: Python tool for converting files and office documents to Markdown.
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/12/17
Finally an easier way to convert Office documents (and other formats) to markdown: [Wayback/Archive] GitHub – microsoft/markitdown: Python tool for converting files and office documents to Markdown. (after Google added a Markdown export feature to Google Docs about half a year ago, and basic Markdown formatting about 2 years ago – see below):
There are quite a few dependencies in [Wayback/Archive] markitdown/pyproject.toml at main · microsoft/markitdown · GitHub, so be prepared for that.
Supported formats (added links for clarity):
The MarkItDown library is a utility tool for converting various files to Markdown (e.g., for indexing, text analysis, etc.)It presently supports:
Google was first though:
- [Wayback/Archive] Google Workspace Updates: Compose with Markdown in Google Docs on web
- [Wayback/Archive] Google Workspace Updates: Import and export Markdown in Google Docs
There is speculation on why Microsoft introduced it just now ranging from “they need it for AI training” to “just late to the game”. I’m with the latter. Apple is even later, so if you want to convert Apple Notes to markdown, then you can use [Wayback/Archive] Import from Apple Notes – Obsidian Help.

Link archive: Windows PSBits/PasswordStealing/NPPSpy at master · gtworek/PSBits
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/12/12
Simple (but fully working) code for
NPLogonNotify(). The function obtains logon data, including cleartext password.
[Wayback/Archive] PSBits/PasswordStealing/NPPSpy at master · gtworek/PSBits has been used in the wild since about 2022 (the code is from 2020).
The code is a ~100 line C file resulting in a DLL exporting the NPGetCaps() and NPLogonNotify() functions.

IPv4 subnet/CIDR table from OccupytheWeb on Twitter: “Network Basics for Hackers: Subnetting, Subnet Masks and CIDR Notation …”
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/11/27
I wrote about programs and scripts doing IPv4 subnet calculation, but sometimes it is easier to have a table at hand, so here is the one I found at [Wayback/Archive] OccupytheWeb on Twitter: “Network Basics for Hackers: Subnetting, Subnet Masks and CIDR Notation #networks #networkbasics #subnetting #infosec #networks4hackers #cyberwarrior #cyberwarrior #networkbasics #networkbasics subnet”
Notes:
- it is by far original, as a quick image search revealed lots of other sources, for instance the 2011 post [Wayback/Archive] Subnet Mask Quick Reference | Academic PCs Blog
- there is a much better table below adapted from Classless Inter-Domain Routing: IPv4 CIDR blocks – Wikipedia

ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ” by tzwickl · Pull Request #768 · sivel/speedtest-cli
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/11/22
Somehow this post missed the schedule and for a long time I forgot to properly checked for “missed schedule” posts.
Back in 2021, suddenly systems with speedtest-cli threw a [Wayback/Archive] ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ” by tzwickl · Pull Request #768 · sivel/speedtest-cli after accessing the speedtest.net servers.
Around 7-8 April, 2021 the speedtest.net/speedtest-config.php XML configuration suddenly had changed the value for the XPath expression /settings/server-config/@ignoreids from being a list of integers into empty, see the archived files below.

Bookmarklet idea: find Wikipedia entry for currently selected text, then (when editing in WordPress) make the selected text link to it
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/11/05
Two stage bookmarklet idea (so if will be easier to create this in an agile fashion):
- create a bookmarklet that looks up the currently selected text in Wikipedia (or another source)
- modify the current selection to link to that Wikipedia entry (convenient when editing blog posts)
Hopefully these links will help me getting started:
