Lava lamps for encryption

It is a fairly well-known fact that cloudflare uses photos of ~100 lava lamps when creating encryption. 

The camera takes photos at regular intervals, which are stored on the computer as a series of numbers.
These numbers are the starting point when creating reliable SSL/TLS keys.

The need for such a creative solution is simple - computers by their nature do not know how to do things "at random".

You can learn more about this from cloudflare themselves:
