My guess is the blue screen picture is fake, but it’s still pretty funny.
Only a matter of time before somebody hacks this and starts playing porn for the whole city.
I feel like the popilation of vegas would respond to that much more positively than the italian senate.
It's fine. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
Except STDs. :(
The largest gaping anus in the whole world.
We should use the guy from interestingasfuck on reddit
I'm picturing a meatspin around the vertical axis.
Directed by Darren Aronofsky? Weird as shit.
I hadn’t even noticed that. Yeah, weird idea…
"We need to save energy"
Yeah, it’s amazing how much of a pass Vegas gets about the complete lack of sustainability. Like, for instance, I don’t know, having tons of thirsty tourists and gigantic pools in the middle of a freaking desert! Kinda nuts…
Well there are plenty of reasons to throw shade at Vegas, but one thing they are doing well is water management.

Thanks for that, I definitely learned some. I’m not surprised that it takes some smart thinking to get this to even be remotely possible, and it’s interesting to read what smart thinking goes into it. I was at Lake Mead recently, and it was impressive to be explained how much it had receded over the past few years, and how much of a strain on it Vegas keeps putting despite the mitigation. I wonder how long before it just runs out, if it does; and what happens next.
Yeah it's painful seeing how low it is. I lived there back in '99 which meant I also got to drive/ride over the damn itself. Good times.
The US has terrible land management in general. You build these huge sprawling cities made of low density suburbs, both wasting productive farmland in the east and isolated in the middle of the desert in the west. It's all completely nuts.
I think water-wise are LA and especially Phoenix much worse than Vegas.
Damn, that's going to be worth a lot of shower piss, that's for sure!
It’s the Las Vegas sphere that I think recently opened. From what I can see, there’s a stage and seating inside it for events.
DEFCON's going to be great this year
I litterly built that place, we erected the steel. I did my job, don't know about the electricians though 😂😂😂
That wouldn't be an electrician's fault. This is an error in windows. Realistically it would prob be the fault of some unknown programmer
Sorry, but you can't know that. A bluescreen is often caused by hardware errors, like faulty RAM modules and so on. In theory this could absolutely be caused by an unstable energy supply that could be the fault of an electrician. I am not saying that this is likely, but we cannot know.
Eh, I just wanted to poke at the electricians. No hate, just fun!
Is this a shoop or did this actually happen?
Definitely fake. Funny idea though.
This is the blue orb of death, very different
I assume this is fake, but still very funny.
Akira!

Leave me alone!
Tetsuo!!!!
We are truly living the most boring dystopia.
That orb desevers some pondering.
Blueballing
I am having a hard time reasoning why companies use windows for such things. Sure it's convenient and has a great (size, not that the economy is good) economy. But the OS is bs when it comes to stability.
God I hate Windows
What is this? Did they remake the sphere from Expo 2017, but in Vegas?
My lifetime goal has been to speed run Super Metroid on the biggest screens possible... Anybody want to hook me up?
Thumbnail looks exactly like Neptune

Shit, we’d better get IT out to Neptune fast. Who knows what having an unresponsive planet will do to the solar system?
This looks like it would make a hilarious Akira edit
