except for solar and wind, i guess. also the thingy where you catch electrons directly from nuclear decay.

There are also some chemical modes of electricity generation (Alkalai batteries, etc). Also using flowing water to move Turbines like dams.

But then the meme isn't as fun here, and those are such a small minority of how we generate powers.

Even then all of them but solar are just spinning a wheel.
