just one more cap, bro, one more cap and we're gonna fix power, i swear, just one more cap
@flacs It looks like they're all laying down & praying. Maybe this is a religious site for capacitors.

Jesus saves (a bit of energy for later). 
Or a parking lot…
@flacs Sure, I could use some practice doing surface mount..

@flacs I like how the silkscreen artist tried to keep up

"C635 😅 C636 shit C675 shit shit C730 ..."

@flacs This feels like an electrical engineering exam question.
@flacs there's one cap per vcc / gnd pair. looks legit

@flacs Lots of room! You can fit tons more in there.

And you can stack them, too 😈

@flacs very devastated to discover that if I squint my eyes, this looks like Freddy Fazbear
@flacs suburban sprawl 🤮
@flacs It looks like a tiny graveyard
@arclight @flacs If these were tombstones, they'd be upright 🙂
For example, see the pictures here: https://www.eurocircuits.com/blog/tips-tricks-why-do-components-tombstone/

Tombstoning is where one end of the component lifts from a pad of the PCB during reflow soldering process and affects mainly surface mount components.

@flacs "They're decapping our designs to reverse engineer them!" - "Decapping, huh? Watch this:"

@flacs
Maybe CPUs should go full Class A and burn all the power they might need, all the time, to avoid sharp changes in demand?

I mean, I already have a 280 and a 360 radiator on my cooling loop; it can take it!

@flacs

”How many caps do you need?”

“Yes.”

@flacs Actually the strategy is different here. The designers obviously wanted bypass capacitors to be distributed so you won't have "long" power lines to the individual balls of a chip. Since capacitors are cheap, they probably did that just in case.
@flacs that's the densely packed walkable urbanism that leftists desire.
@flacs some design meeting: What do you mean you want separate power supplies for every peripheral??
Marketing: 
@flacs This kind of smart, walkable, mixed use urbanism is illegal to build in most North American cities.
@flacs They made a cap cross so God can come help if it's not enough.
@flacs They didn't even give up with labels.
@flacs oh hey I remember gridlock (web game)
@firefly @flacs I had the physical game as a kid
@endrift @flacs ohh didn't know it's based on a physical toy, neat
@flacs how DRAM was invented
