"Gut Bacteria-Powered Doom: Atrocious Framerate Gaming"

TL;DR Summary
A researcher at MIT has created a 1-bit display using E. coli bacteria to render gameplay of the game Doom, with each cell serving as a pixel. However, due to the extremely limited ability of the cells, it takes 70 minutes to illuminate and over eight hours to return to their starting state for each frame, resulting in an atrocious framerate of one frame per eight and a half hours. Playing Doom using gut bacteria would take around 599 years to complete, making it a highly impractical endeavor.
