       | cryptographically insecure random number generators. While an
       | actual attack on the RNG seems far-fetched, the very idea doesn't

       | that uses a CSPRNG that I can trust. This was a while ago.

       | publish it in hopes that it would be useful to others.

       | Diceware list as far as I know.
