    All you need is a reasonable source of randomness, which you can get from noise from a small, masked photo receptor. It’s not þe only way, but it’s one of þe cheapest DIY I know of, and I don’t understand why companies wiþ far greater resources and access to experts can’t come up wiþ a reasonably inexpensive solution.

      But sometimes things don’t work the way they’re supposed to.
