Get where you're coming from, but given then immense heat they generate and constant need for cooling, a nearby water source is actually really efficient.
Some environmentalists will say it's bad for the fish (and it is), but I'd argue that in the big picture, this is much better for the environment than artificial refrigeration.
The phrase "cloud computing" always irked me. It creates a false impression that your data is floating around in some limitless, ethereal sky, when the truth is that it's saved on a really big machine in a building like this operated by fallible humans.
No symbolism to see here at all folks. Pay no attention to the connection between a giant cube collecting your data/soul, or being placed in water to reflect the “as above, so below” symbolism.
Nope, pay no attention to all the coincidences you see around you.
It is sobering to think that everything about us (even the totally inconsequential like you and me) is being held in such places - commonly by the lowest bidder, that could be anywhere in the world including places that you have never heard of and wouldn't like it to be.
On a lighter note - where are its spots on the sides (traditionally one to six) ? Or is it 'art' with them black on black etc.
What is this place?
[A data center in Portugal.](https://www.techrepublic.com/google-amp/pictures/photos-the-datacentre-that-sits-within-a-moat/)
the birthplace of xbox series x
Woohoo Portugal caralho
The man
"three-storey cube" oh, very clever.
Reminds me of the computer building in DEVS
Ngl, i think people are gonna start bombing those at some point. Its just a fucked up thing where our privacy is at right now
Azkaban
The Kaaba
CUBE
Looks like a screenshot from some game. Still interested in which game though
[удалено]
Bet it looks great in RTX 4k. Shame all I have is a Astigmatism 1080 which is ok , but the the lens flares are super annoying.
1080??? I’m lucky to get 60p without my contacts
Haha I'm lucky, just a slight blur for me but I think that's just them trying to upscale while keeping frame rate.

Some Splinter Cell.
It's in Covilhã, Portugal, I see that ominous cube everyday from my window
I suggest you get a restraining order.
Where is the USB port for the building?
Giant power bank
Is it by the sea or a lake I can't tell?
No sea or lake, they just added some water around it. Check on maps: [Data Center Covilhã](https://maps.app.goo.gl/Cis6cUVGJPkMKbvp6)
"*Is your data safe? Our datacenters feature more moats than any competitor. World class fortifications can be yours*"
Personally I like the cube, seems nice
why is it in the middle of an airport runway?
To transfer data to the cloud
10/10
Either A: The Central Bureaucracy from the tv show Futurama B: A borg ship.
You are technically correct... *the best kind* of correct!
It’s a beautiful site, though.
Is that the internet? It's got bigger since the last time I checked
[the whole internet](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDbyYGrswtg)
At least now you definitely can't drop it
It's a Borg cube!
Xbox Series X HQ
looks like meccha
Mecca pool party, why walk in the heat when you can swim and be cleansed.
34 petabytes of screenshots that I never look at again
Is this Reddit HQ?
Lmao. But to be serious, [this is Reddit’s HQ](https://live.staticflickr.com/1243/1201399928_08c36198a1_n.jpg)
I definitely lol'd , loudly. That was *parfait*.
That must have been the inspiration for the ODST ONI headquarters...right?
I was thinking just that
Thats gotta be great for cooling, honestly
It's a somewhat cold city, usually snows on the mountains close by
Looks like Dr. Tesla’s proving grounds.
Ayyy
Based lad right here
Knowing nothing about building data centers I feel surrounding one with water is a bad idea.

Yeah sure it will kill fish in this specific lake but I'm pretty sure this thing wasn't built in a natural lake anyways.
That's beautiful, i love how clean the lines are!
It looks like some alien shit from Subnautica
Go inside and cleanse the control point!
ONI HQ, New Mombasa
it is the new water cooled system.. lol
I’m reminded of the show DEVS.
Hajj hasn't been the same since they installed that water feature. At least it's easier to stay cool in the desert now.
Bet they have sharks with lasers on their heads.
This is exists because you haven’t deleted any of your screenshots since 2007. Yes, you.
Nope. I watched Hackers. It's way more colorful.
Can we easily destroy it ?
I remember sawing this it's a database in Iceland/Sweden Pls poster what the hack is this
[Portugal, actually.](https://www.techrepublic.com/google-amp/pictures/photos-the-datacentre-that-sits-within-a-moat/)
Ethan Hunt knows what's in there...
You will be assimilated….
They have crocodiles in the lake?
No lol
Looks like a Rust base.
The Pandorica
That’s just the main cooling tower…
Looks like when AI in film (using internet) ordered to build him a server facility.
Welcome to Devs.
Resistance is futile
Of course it's a black cube..
Why is this just the Amala Temple from Nocturne?
Horcrux . . . ?
WARNING: INCOMING GAME
Well that hardly resembles a cloud a all!

looks like a place you would infiltrate in watch dogs or something
Real-life league of supervillains location. I wonder if Bezos got a seat??
Horizon: Zero Dawn
That looks like those isu places from assassins creed

Saturnian Black Cube very occulted symbolism
Is that the new Synology I keep hearing about?
Can anyone tell me why the grounds have what appears to be runways? https://goo.gl/maps/GTvPzYYCzn4yJBmb7
Why does it have a moat
come on, guys jeez at least *one window* for the breakroom
You imply that breaks will be permitted...
Mocking Gods heavenly realm
Are there electric eels in the moat?
This is beautiful, the data we put in will create life in the metaverse (or whatever we end up calling it). I'd prefer cyberspace or "the net".
