From random.org, used as a source for the data:
> RANDOM.ORG offers true random numbers to anyone on the Internet. The randomness comes from atmospheric noise, which for many purposes is better than the pseudo-random number algorithms typically used in computer programs.
- im3w1l 12y agoAh missed that. Yeah then it may be good enough randomness.
- emn13 12y agoBut yeah - it may well be not entirely random, and if someone actually managed to build a compressor based off any slight bias, I think they deserve the 5000 :-).
- path411 12y agoGive me a file the size of the universe, and my decompressor will re-sim the universe until the point of the file creation date and read the atmospheric noise from that point.
