They've pissed so many billions of dollars into quantum computing, at least they're using it for something.

Did anyone tell them that you can use the noise in a semiconductor junction to produce truly random numbers too? You can buy one for a few pennies.
- Isn't there a truly random generator based on Lava Lamps? Lol
  
  But I think the issue is the rate at which you can get random numbers
  
  IIRC that's Cloudflares random number generator.
  
  I think I saw the video about it here on lemmy within the past week
