Smarter folks : fix my response here if you see issues with it.
It’s about random number generation.

I think the RNG of the universe is the whole universe as felt by a particular wave function “collapsing” as it’s struck by whatever is “observing” it.
Whatever patterns are hidden within a an electron cloud for example I think is a very microcosm of our atmosphere.
But we can’t observe it without disturbing it.
It’s only observed when it’s disturbed.
It’s only disturbed when it’s observed.
Until it’s observed it doesn’t have a number.
It can any.
It probably has something specific but it takes an event for it to show it. But when it shows it, it stops it.
When it shows it, the other electron it’s entangled with (which is somewhere in the universe, near or far) flips it’s spin correspondingly.
When that one flips it also collapses it’s wave function and spits out a result – the complementary one to the one spit out by the one you observe.
That can change the behaviors of OTHER nearby electrons causing them to be entangled with it too.
This is happening continually, spinning, flipping, angles of exit, shells rising and dropping, spitting out photons which affect other things depending on its angle of exit, and leading to more inscrutable patterns that we call random.
