It's quite a respectable accomplishment, don't get me wrong.

Now I'm thinking of a random number generator that uses a mechanical calculator printer (but I don't think there are any hex-capable ones easily available) or a typewriter to write password suggestions. The mechanical part would be tricky, because the hammers require some force to be actuated (and I would find it criminal to destroy a vintage typewriter for that).
