Technically, it’s still a pattern, algorithm.
I suppose it is simulating randomness, but then if you think about it that way, we’re simulating randomness as well.
Life has no meaning, therefore whatever we do have no meaning either.
We must create meaning.
And that means being random…

Sound familiar? :3
http://www.random.org/
RANDOM.ORG offers true random numbers to anyone on the Internet. The randomness comes from atmospheric noise, which for many purposes is better than the pseudo-random number algorithms typically used in computer programs. People use RANDOM.ORG for holding draws, lotteries and sweepstakes, to drive games and gambling sites, for scientific applications and for art and music.
Atmospheric noise is truly random. 🙂
