This is so fukcing stupid i cant handle it. Fuck. Cathedrals are still beautiful and awe-inspiring hundreds of years after they were built. This orb is going to look like absolute shit the second it loses power or some of its screens break or something, so, like, 50 years from now it'll be giant e-waste sitting in a dead city. I hate techbros i hate techbros i hate techbros
can a cathedral turn into a giant fucking eyeball? No? Then I don't care about it
L take. every sinofuturism video features the big skyscrapers acting as screens. as has been pointed out here before if this thing were built in China we'd all be praising the shit out of it.
edit: vegas in general is shit though. although the desert & surrounding mountains have a nice austere natural beauty to them.
No. I wouldn't be. I think those giant skyscraper screens are cringe as shit. Simply make prettier buildings that don't cause massive light pollution. I think a neat old stone church is extremely a lot cooler than any fancy skyscraper covered in screens
Simply make prettier buildings
Modern engineering and building safety standard make this prohibitively expensive if not borderline impossible.
what about engineering and safety could possibly demand new buildings be flashy glass skyscrapers?
I think skyscrapers are overrated, but at least they have functional interiors. What is inside of the orb?
I really don't get how U2 got so famous. They sound like such bland dogshit
I think you've answered your own question
, 50 years from now
I admire your optimism that it'll last that long
Give it like 5 years and you'll start seeing multiple led panels needing replaced but they can't afford to do that because they still havent made a profit.
I would not be surprised if the orb caved in at basically any moment
Tear down the stupid papist rock piles
Rehabilitate them into gay clubs. Will make for dope décor.
Can you imagine what they would do with the confessional booth? I get all tingly just thinking about it
Better than trains
Always saying this while I'm neck deep in traffic just outside the Anime-Faced God Orb.
this giant vanity project is better than mass transit
until america gets a functional rail network (forever).
I'm inclined to agree, but I think they missed a trick by making it stationary. It should be a massive unrooted sphere that rolls across the country and crushes everything in its path. And they should let me drive it.
Uncritical support for comrade sphere
The light pollution sphere
That picture quality looks like the kind of footage the pentagon releases when they smartbomb a wedding or a hospital or the Chinese embassy, but they put an emoji face on the explosion.
Children's screams replaced with the Baby Shark song
be sure to ask which god when we're in giant eyeball mode
"Heaven isn't real, but hell is"
-medieval mason upon seeing the society that produced the orb
They should make it look like a mushroom cloud to see how many people it freaks out
what's orb mommy's take on this
Not impressed by this particular orb but if they build an even bigger one I'll consider worshipping it.
That guy doesn't actually think the orb is better than trains. He's lying to drive up engagement.
I gotta admit though the concerts inside look dope af
But yeah what a fucking waste
LEDs on the inside is cool. Putting them on the outside is being a public menace.
the orb will be decommissioned following the TOOL gig (also known as the final performance) held within - after which human consciousness will "spiral out", the ability to perceive current reality and the planet earth will cease, and we will ascend to a higher plane that is chemically-composed only of cannabinoids
All hail the future Wigsphere!
Is there a Fallout New Vegas mod to add the orb? Maybe with Mr. House yelling at you and then replaced by Yes Man.
Sir this is the scariest day of my life
No God would allow that orb
God damn it, you don't need to swing to extremes to feel the presence of anything meaningful, forget God
Move the orb above the White House like the rock at Vivec
red year for america
Well Vegas is getting a high speed train too, but (un)fortunately you won't be able to see the sphere from it. It also has a 'cathedral'. Before the sphere opened they were planning on building one in London too (and maybe Singapore? I forget) so there will probably be more.
But they still refuse to build a subway on or pedestrianize Las Vegas Boulevard, supposedly they're building a whole giant Boring^TM^ tunnel network but somehow I doubt it'll happen.
One day it will become known at the goatse orb. For obvious reasons.
