    Tech Xplore[^]:

    Researchers now report in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces a step toward running electronic devices in homes and offices on the light coming from lamps scattered around the room.

    I turned off my lights, and now my lights aren't powered!

      Jesus wept. Could someone please introduce them to the word "efficiency", in the sense that it's used in Physics and mechanics? Here's the thing: if you turn just one of the "scattered lamps" off, you can use the power that saves to do fifty times as much "device powering".

      I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

        Another person who believes in the laws of thermodynamics, next you'll be telling us the world is spherical :rolleyes:
