EDIT: From this point people explain that there's no issue with RDRAND (but may be with systemd), and users don't understand birthday paradox: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/18184#issuecomment...

edit: this was in reply to the _original_ parent comment, before it was edited, where they asked for a link to the comments stating RDRAND looked fine.

Their (holtalanm) parent comment just got edited from a question to a statement, and now this looks really out of context.

thanks. really don't like it when people edit their comment to result in _entirely different context_ when there are replies.

frustrating.

Sorry, when I started your comment did not exist yet. And after editing, I forgot my original. Best I could do reasonably is add `EDIT` prefix.
