The world’s largest particle accelerator now has an important new mission: heating thousands of homes. The Large Hadron Collider at CERN has begun to funnel the waste heat from its cooling system to a new residential and commercial area in the nearby French town of Ferney-Voltaire, with the new linkup expected to be able to heat several thousand homes at once.

So random French households have portals summoning demons? Damn, I wish I was French.

Joke, of course I didn't wish I was French. But a demon portal would be awesome in my house though.

(I'm referencing to the comspiracy of Cern using the hedron collider to summon Osiris from the underworld)
