But you're using something different than what I suggested. There's
not enough entropy to get 32 random bits in such short notice. If you
get 8 times a random number between 0 and 35 for example, things look
much better...

But it's not without reason that the hardware cryptic devices contain
a pair of dice to make proper random numbers :-)
