i don't know let's ask NIST

No. Explanation: some hardware lets get entropy from outside of the computer.

True Randomness does not exist. The world is deterministic. Stochastic models of the universe are merely hidden variables.

Just shut up and answer faggts

>The world is deterministic.
Proof?

If I punch you in the face are you going to blame me or have a fight with a picture of god playing craps? QED.

This does not prove that universe is deterministic.

Prove that it isn't.

It's all PRNG unless it's specialised hardware. When generating master keys, companies rely on actual RNG hardware, like taking RNG from the decay of radioactive atoms and radio static noise and shit like that.

I'm not claiming that it is either. You made a very clear claim, so a proof is necessary.

This notion of "burden of proof" was originally a legal notion, but has been adopted by atheists and redditors to be a dog whistle essentially signifying their unwillingness to put any actual though into anything they believe and instead just assume it to be true because it's aligned with a prevailing sense of generalized skepticism that plagues modern thought.

In any event, it is entirely amathematical. And, unlike the other devils I'm advocating, I am 100% serious about this claim.

It's nice that you're serious, but your claim has as much weight as the claim that the world is not deterministic, which is 0, until you substantiate it.

The claim is substantiated by virtue both its truth and its insight. Concepts which are clearly foreign to you toilers of obscurity. Go on, ye masses, shield yourselves. We who live in the world will take solace in the fact that you shield us from your dumbass half-ideas in equal portion

I am notifying you with this post that I will not reply until you post something relevant to the discussion.

We can't even predict the weather accurately.

As for random distributions, many things converge towards a normal distribution.
Why is that not considered random in your view?

There is no such thing as "pseudo" versus "true" random numbers. There are only numbers generated by some process that someone else can or cannot predict. The question is wrong in its underlying assumptions.

>We can't predict something that has too many variables, and we might not even know some of them

Read random.c : elixir.free-electrons.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/char/random.c

Kind of but no. At least in Linux the various bits of data are taken from shit like your hard drive smart status, shit that is likely to differ slightly between hardware configurations, thermals, input sources (mouse/keyboard) and a few others. Read the source.

As an aside, /dev/urandom and /dev/random are very different. random is a seeded RNG where as urandom is actual entropic noise. ssh-keygen uses urandom and will generate keys slowly if the established pool of bits is drained. When generating keys it tells you to jiggle the mouse around and bang on the keyboard so the kernel has something to fill the pool with.

Hardware RNGs use shit like decaying radioactive material scattering as a source of entropy. This is fed into the kernel, otherwise generating secure SSH keys all day would require a few monkeys and teletypes :)

Literally the last century of physics. Look up Bell's inequality. Local realism is dead. Determinism is dead. Pilot wave theory is the only attempt to reconcile quantum physics and determinism and it doesn't work. You are wrong and you would know this if you read.

If you know the exact position of every 10^85010500 quantum particles and have enough computing power you can predict the next state

No you can't you fucking retard
