Awesome. I've been a longtime random.org user but have always complained about the lack of a Comic Sans interface. It seems my prayers have finally been answered:<p><a href="http://randint.com/labs/comicsans.php" rel="nofollow">http://randint.com/labs/comicsans.php</a><p>(My first Comic Sans number was 17 - it even <i>feels</i> more random than the competition!)
Does anyone know how these are generated?<p>Could anyone explain what this paragraph means from their FAQ:<p>"Since 1992 at least 24 companies have set out to solve the random integer problem. Most fail for obvious reasons. It is rumored that a few of our competitors may have a 1-5 algo that works approximately 40% of the time. Our 1-100 algo is rock solid. In short, there is a consumer need for a random integer but the problem isn't easy. Even Google is rumored to be 2 years away from a reliable 1-50 algo."<p>I'm probably being stupid but I don't understand what
'works approximately 40% of the time' means in this respect.<p>Also this is cool : <a href="https://www.fourmilab.ch/hotbits/secure_generate.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.fourmilab.ch/hotbits/secure_generate.html</a>
I got 88 on my first try. That's not very random at all.<p>Seriously though, are these true random or pseudorandom? There's nothing to say how they're generated. I personally want a true quantum random number generator, so that I can use it to make decisions and be guaranteed that an alternate-universe counterpart of myself made the opposite decision. That way at least one of me is going to be right.
