Computer Powered by Colony of Blue-Green Algae For 6 Months

[ID: two comic panels, the first of a person laying on a therapy couch, and the second of them sitting up and looking over their shoulder saying, “oh shit, for real?” end ID]

it gets even cooler, because the algae didnt stop working at 6 months, thats just when they detatched the microprocessor - it was still producing currents after that!!! the article below is an update saying that it has been running for a year now, and it might run indefinitely: “Our photosynthetic device doesn’t run down the way a battery does because it’s continually using light as the energy source.”

This is cool af
