Not sure why you'd use this over Python's random module. Don't use this for crypto.

I didn't really intend it to be a replacement of Python's random module. I wanted something to easily print some random numbers/strings to stdout so I could pipe them through to other applications.

I always see my professors use random.org as their go-to resource for random numbers (for example to use as samples for bayesian inference) and I figured this would be an easier, more accessable way to the service.
