• I’ve never seen a SOIC package that’s smaller than a grain of rice, with pins on all sides and two pin 1 markings

    I think OP just copied someone else’s slop meme and used Google Translate on it, though. So can’t really blame them

  • Someone posted the original elsewhere in the comments

  • for all these people booing, I want to point out that I don’t blame you OP. AI is sneaky and any meme nowadays you post without thinking has the chance to turn out to be a trojan horse of slop.

    I do, however, blame the mods for not listening to the community and adding a rule about AI.

      • I think you are right. Seems like a sloppified recreation of this classic

        • What is it with the wave of sloppified memes, that are just worse than the original? What is their point?

          • Everything has to be run through Ai. Just because. Shuuush. Soon we will forget about all that “human made” content and bathe in the glorious future of technology.

              I will only ever make artisanal, handcrafted shitposts. And you can hold me to that, or my name isn’t Troy McLure.

          • Sometimes it’s easier to ask ai to recreate something you remember rather than finding the original one and reposting it 🤷‍♂️

            • That does not explain the heavy wave of such slop content in recent time, unless people have suffered from rapid mass dementia.

              • Probably soc media algorhytms give preferntial treatment to images with original hash sums, so LLM recreation gets built into the usual repost bot pipeline.

                • That makes more sense. It is surely not done just for fun. Gaming the attention economy with slop spam makes sense.

        • PLCCs like that do often have two indentations, on opposite corners due to the molding process. Doesn’t make this any less slop though.

        • Are the indentations just for orientation during soldering?

    • And I’m pretty sure the smallest chip in history has more than 16 leads, and would not be visible without a microscope

      • The smallest microcontroller definitely has fewer than 16 pads (not leads because they don’t make sense at this scale)

    • It looks quite right for the integrated circuit that is labeled as a “chip”.

  • No genuine human progress can be made until we make all forms of advertising a capital offense.

    • It’s crazy that people raw dog the web. Who on earth would voluntarily look at ads

  • I recently saw a new trend, the close button is just a small slash, so you have to guess what the exit is. Like , but very small

  • its gotten out of hand how hard it is to just close the damn ad and do your thing

    i have this stupid yahtzee game on my phone that has ads, every time I play it I am reminded why I block them at all costs (I haven’t gotten around to fixing my adguard magisk module lol)

    like wdym I have to play your dumbass game then open the play store then back out THEN CLOSE THE AD??? fuck advertising dude this shit sucks
