I've seen several like that. They're permanently sold out, or the
webshops are abandoned and half-broken. Pure random number generators
that are actually possible to buy are rare. That's why I'm
investigating whether s

If not from devices like this, from where does Debian get its randomness?

I have some EntropyKeys and some OneRNGs. I have the rngd packaged
in Debian feeding /dev/random from them.
This had an actual noticeable effect

Your original Subject: header mentions $USER and $LOGNAME so I assume
you're asking about these.
$LOGNAME is the standard variable which is set by th
Hello!
In a quest to acquire hardware random number generators for seeding
/dev/random on servers that lack a built-in entropy source, I'm
investigating how random data can be obtained from a security key such
as a Nitrokey, Yubikey or a similar device.

Hi,
1. Using CodeSearch, it is not clear to me when to use one or the other.
2. Would it be nice if the EnvironmentVariables page were linked to a
new page named EnvironmentVariablesList (the same way as DotFiles and
DotFilesList)?
Best,
Patrice
