Quote:what exactly is it you don't understand about "random"? There is no pattern. A random password can also be "aaaaaaa" or "hello1". It is just exactly the same probability.dont need a draw mate, thanks anyway...
aint an excuse though but maybe i called it random by mistake(english aint my native language), perhaps patterned gens fits better somehow.
the thing is i've several samples of like 10000 decrypted hashes(indeed are small samples) and i can find patterns there, apparently it was used the same gen script, as for example in a 8 charset,
i cant see more than 3 digits neither 2 same lowercases next to each other and other ones i cant recall right now.
so about randomness i agree with you, the odds are the very same for every char but maybe, generically speaking, the automated process avoid some strings in some way.
@pierzi
indeed all my samples handshake those conditions you posted.
in the end we're just willing to do some progress with these kind of hashes that's all.
cheers!
