oooh, the redbox uses full AES encryption!
-
@foone Does it say how many times? I mean, if I^H a friend rented Gigli every weekend for three years, does it show that?
-
Somebody I'll call Dave Fakename rented The Giver and The Maze Runner in Morganton, NC on 2015-05-23 at 6:43pm
-
@Cloudscout yes
-
@foone this is nutters, WHY IS THIS ON THE DRIVE?!?!, why is it in PLAIN TEXT?!?!? why isn’t the drive encrypted?!?!?!
-
@bosh all of those things would require competence that redbox inc has famously never shown
-
@foone how many classes are you trying to create for these banger class action lawsuits?
Seriously you should team up with a law firm and start cashing in on this.
Seems like a clear violation of the Bork Bill to me.
-
found a THIRD set of encryption code.
this one is 3des instead of AES, and YEP they still hardcode the passkeys -
@todb the company is gone. who are we suing?
-
Redbox.HAL.Configuration
.ConfigurationFileService implements IConfigurationFileServiceSTOP MAKING SERVICES AND FACTORIES AND INTERFACES AND JUST READ THE FUCKING JSON FILE YOU ENTERPRISE FUCKERS
-
AND HEY YOU DON'T NEED A SEPARATE C# CLASS FOR EACH XML FILE YOU LOAD
YOU CAN JUST HAVE AN XMLLOADER CLASS AND A GENERIC CONFIG FILE. PLEASE
-
this is the kind of code you get when you hire 20 new grads who technically know C# but none of them has written any software before
-
so these people wrote a mostly C# program, with some lua for glue scripting.
and then they implemented their own language. it's some bastardized version of BASIC
-
it's a compiled (to bytecode? I think?) cooperative-multitasking BASIC.
and god I wish it was the only one of those I'd ever seen

@foone it’s probably in their GitHub repo too
-
okay by "compiling" they mean "parsing". The output of the compiler is a list of tokens, the input is a text file
-
example code:
POP START-DECK
POP START-SLOT
POP END-DECK
POP END-SLOT
IF END-SLOT > MAX-SLOT-PER-DECK
SET END-SLOT MAX-SLOT-PER-DECK
ENDIF -
@foone Any inclination about what transpired that made them think this was needed and or "good"?
-
@jbaggs they were not good at programming things
-
Foone's official list of things they never expected to implement their own multitasking programming language, yet found one anyway:
* Redbox vending machine motors
* Wheel of Fortune (2011, Wii) -

@Taffer thankfully this device doesn't have any github repos in it. that I've seen, at least.
this makes it a nice change from the last few things I've opened up
