So glad that sphere uses up the electricity equivalent of 22,000 homes (or something like that, it's got like 150 high the GPUs if I remember the article correctly).

Is it worth 22,000 homes having some temporary electricity to lose the giant veiny Minion, which now lives forever in history?

[-] steal_your_face@lemmy.ml 10 points 3 months ago

Las Vegas is known for its responsible use of electricity

We reaaaaally need pigouvian pollution taxes equal to the external cost of pollution.

Like, for real though, what the fuck is that? A dried minion? A minion under a microscope? Why the fuck does it have that texture

[-] graymess@lemmy.world 20 points 3 months ago

OK, I promise I only know this because it's related to my job: In the movie that came out earlier this year, there are minions with super powers. This one is supposed to be a rip off of The Thing from Fantastic Four. That's why it looks like that.

Thought it was corn.

I'm guessing somebody got drunk and blew hundreds of thousands of dollars to project a minion face onto some big advertising orb

[-] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 3 months ago

It's not projected. It's the las Vegas led wall orb

I think defcon (hacking convention) happened recently.

[-] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago

Ooooh. Free would be better.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

Why is there a giant minion in a city for decadent adults?

[-] TheFriar@lemm.ee 10 points 3 months ago

Because for some godforsaken reason plenty of adults seem to love minions

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I don't hate Vegas. But I could see there being overlap between some people who love Minions and some people who frequent Vegas.

[-] dditty@lemm.ee 37 points 3 months ago

True, but goatse, blue waffle, or the Howie Mandel prolapse would still be worse

[-] JohnWorks@sh.itjust.works 22 points 3 months ago

Goatse on the sphere would probably be pretty funny tbh

I don't know either, but I've been around the internet long enough to not ask.

When the shrooms the homeless guy on the strip sold to you hit....

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

I don't like it's expression. I don't want to think about what's happening below the ground level to that giant minion. And I triple don't want to know what's happening to the sewer system after it finishes.

[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

It looks like a Space Shuttle launch down there.

[-] unreachable@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

the expression of letting loose things

[-] teamevil@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago
