I'm currently working on a program to feed the random data found
from an RTL-SDR dongle into the entropy pool. Then just tune to an
empty frequency, and let atmospheric noise rule.
The raspberry pi supposedly has a hardware RNG
They're also not super good. They barely keep up with my ssh traffic and it
took ages to create a key for whatever Arch wanted (don't recall what).

Hi Aaron,
Here is the last I saw of them (besides the website being up):

They claim to still be around (from the last in the thread):

No kidding. I think someone on here told me about them and I tried to get

I once toyed with the idea of creating an open source hardware design
