The Las Vegas Sphere might have an impressive spec sheet, but its energy demands are almost as staggering.

    That’s what it is on the inside.

      Wait, the article says it’s “internal displays” but the picture shows images on the outside of the globe?

        Yep, it is both. Highly recommend this amazing video from Eddie Burbank about it, very entertaining. https://youtu.be/KN63DDD9Y04?si=q6gE98LszfcPzBvy

        It’s got both. It’s awesome. But it’s also owned by James Dolan, and he’s a douche. I say that as a big Rangers fan.

        The article says

        Those GPUs power 16 internal displays, each with a resolution of 16K, alongside 1.2 million programmable LED pucks coating the exterior of the sphere.

        Did you literally stop reading mid sentence? Or are you just not able to read good?

          “internal displays” could mean whatever. They’re embedded for example.
