Is true randomness real

I am not sure why the theory stating that knowing every particle position at a specific time can allow the prediction on what happens next is considered untrue
Is it that there are other factors that we still didn't discover
Does true randomness exist

I knew i would end up here. :).

I feel that the Internet is probably the closest thing we have to a determination machine, due to the massive amount of data put into it constantly. :).

Hey hey, this isn't your film thread!

Randomness surely doesn't exist when the dice are loaded.

But, if the dice are truly loaded in nature, then shouldn't we be able to do a better job and at least predict the weather?

Say we know the mass and exact shape of the dice and the environment variables
Can't we every time predict what it would land
