Flipper Zero + a lighter = true random number generator! (www.youtube.com)
 

cross-posted from: https://feddit.nl/post/22194127

While playing with my Flipper Zero, I realised that the IR radiation that it reads does not have to be emitted by another electronic device! It can be a random analog IR 'signal' from a flame! Since Flipper can record raw IR data without interpreting it, there you go, a True Random Number Generator (TRNG)! I wrote a script that automates data collection and processing, here's a github link. It outputs your freshly generated true random number sequence into a file.

Do you know a credible source to read about it, please?

I'm a super happy new Lemmy user. Last week, I created an account on Reddit for the first time ever. I replied to 3 posts in a polite manner and right on topic (in a Linux-related community, someone asked for a book recommendation. The other two were answers to technical questions on Rust and Linux). A couple of hours later, I was reading about what shadowban meant. I waited a few days, sent some messages to admins / support but to no avail. Then I searched for alternatives to Reddit and landed here. It's been 4 days, and I absolutely love it here. Lemmy seems to have that spirit of the Internet of the 90s, which I thought was long gone. Also, my assumption is that Lemmy users are of a higher quality than those on Reddit. It's very easy to end up on Reddit / IG / Facebook / etc. On the other hand, to become a Lemmy user, one actually needs to apply some effort and do at least some research. Or to have a cool friend who can recommend becoming a user here (if you have a cool friend, that makes you kind of cool too, right?). I should probably start telling my friends about Lemmy 🤔

Thanks for sharing. Now I know that KDL exists and what it is.

Yeah, I also find it super helpful with unit tests, saves a lot of time.
