gollark: IPv6 is becoming increasingly important, what with all the issues with IPv4 address availability.
gollark: Also, your way would probably cause IPv6 issues, but I assume you don't care about that either.
gollark: Assuming you actually want to use the random.org API and not just get the quota of your IP for no reason, random.org will see all the requests as coming from the proxy, because they *are*, and reduce your quota based on that, *not* the IP of your CC computer.
