Go Go Gadgets! – IEEE Spectrum

A lithium battery powers

most of our favorite devices—

a charge every twenty-four hours

for typical usage suffices.

Billions of tiny transistors

enable these wonders of science:

video calls between sisters,

virtual briefings with clients,

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connections,

a camera for taking a photo,

GPS-guided directions

in Kentucky, Kyiv, or Kyoto,

apps that are snappy and nifty,

a podcast for every headphone,

a live-stream for every Swiftie

(as long as they’re not in a dead zone).

Diversions supremely…
