Does Alice know any interesting methods to get RNG?
I have been really interested in experimenting with RNG based on different types of input like a live cam or microphone and taking that to generate randomness, has something like it been done before?

While by no means a prng expert, I can point you to a few places you might find interesting:

>http://www.gniibe.org/memo/development/gnuk/rng/neug.html

If you want to learn about rng, I would point here first. Really impressive libre true random number generator. Impressive at least to someone like me who knows little about it. One day I plan to really disect this project; I just have so much to learn.

>http://random.org

Something more of a reference to rng-related topics rather than a learning resource. Still though, you may find it interesting.

>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_congruential_generator

A wikipedia page on what I know is one method of generating pseudo random numbers.

Sorry I don't know more about rng, I find it a really really interesting topic despite not knowing a lot about it. Please update the thread with other resources / sites you find!

You can buy 30USD geiger counters that stream byte flows on AliExpress, I use a modified version of one for my random numbers, it works surprisingly well. Definitely a fun project to look into if you are seriously interested in true RNG, background radiation is one of the best entropy sources.

you can use those cheap chiner RTL-SDR dongles to generate random numbers from air static
