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?

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

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.

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

TheFriar@lemm.ee · 10 pts · 2y (1 reply)

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

ivanafterall@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

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

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 pts · 2y

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

I think defcon (hacking convention) happened recently.

Ooooh. Free would be better.

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

JohnWorks@sh.itjust.works · 22 pts · 2y

Goatse on the sphere would probably be pretty funny tbh

The Howie Mandel what?

saltesc@lemmy.world · 40 pts · 2y

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

the expression of letting loose things

Etterra@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 2y (1 reply)

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.

It looks like a Space Shuttle launch down there.
