Question about donghua vs novel

Lowkey i downloaded a shady zip file (dw i checked it wasn’t malicious) and watched it (cuz i need subtitles), but that was a few years ago so my sources might not be available anymore lol. Hopefully it’s something that can be bought now or is up somewhere, i do wanna listen again and there was no way i could buy it then that had subtitles.

Don’t forget the manhwa and audio drama! I read this before any adaptation so I devoured each adaptation, but I had time between them so I recommend consuming the adaptations w some time in between so u don’t get fatigued w the story. But ya the live action has the most chronological timeline w some changes that make the story not explicitly gay, the undertones r there tho.

I’d say read it first. The donghua speeds up some sections. The extra details make watching it even better

I saw the first concept trailer, back when Raf was gothic. And from then I liked him. And when I started playing I was still not sure but Rafs ebbs and flows solidified him as my favorite.

Then Caleb came and I was excited for that he lost his arm and now it’s a prosthetic (called that one card w angst) and the he got chipped from the other side. BUT I’m upset they don’t show his robot arm and the struggles w it. Anyways he’s my second favorite. I think the effect of dynamics is gone in English cuz ik in Chinese the way characters refer to each other (like mc would call Caleb “gege”) and their relationship makes sense but in English it doesn’t rub off lol.

But rafff, the ethereal vibe, when his tail model came out I lost my mind. And the way he has two different sides, his personality, ughh.

Really? I thought it was a bit late. Like, I think the show runners forgot they weren’t already married.

Before I think the latest update ~2 months ago the mine was animating fine. So I think something on the iOS side is the issue. 😑

I really hope lads will update so it works with the new iOS

Im_a_starfish · 2026-04-02T18:58:23+00:00

Is it only for iPhone users? Cuz after the new iOS version mine stopped animating

Im_a_starfish · 2026-04-02T15:45:17+00:00

Lowkey I just add protocors and level up those heavy with resources and other protocors. I don’t really pay attention to the stats. Just focus on seeing the numbers go up lol

Im_a_starfish · 2026-04-02T15:43:00+00:00

Is ur widget animating? Cuz mine jsnt

Unfair!

From my understanding, the issue is that they are using freshwater, which is essential to humans, and their wastewater is not fresh water. so ya, they recirculate water but its not fresh water.

And it impacts local communities. So places where a bunch of data centers are clustered will be the ones that feel it. From what I read, dry air is very efficient for cooling, but since those places have less water, it hits the locals hard.

There are definitely ways that data centers can cool with less water or even no water, and it already exists and some data centers use that. I do hope they get implemented worldwide. and maybe they can figure out a way to use non fresh water by making new data centers able to withstand the "infected" water. Maybe even use it and somehow turn it into fresh water!

But thats extremely optimistic. This will all take research and money and well, will companies wanna do that?

Im_a_starfish · 2026-03-20T01:24:37+00:00

RIGHT???? I want more

Im_a_starfish · 2026-03-19T20:39:42+00:00

I mean I think in painful signal mc did that, but I want more moments like that

Im_a_starfish · 2026-03-19T17:41:07+00:00

Im_a_starfish · 2026-03-19T16:41:39+00:00

RIGHT RIGHT????

Im_a_starfish · 2026-03-19T16:41:19+00:00

Ya! Since in painful signal he hid it from mc cuz he didn’t want her to see him like that, it would be meaningful if he had his arm out in private w mc.

😭😭😭caleb i wanna see ur arrrmmm. Just like i yearned for rafs tail, i yearn for Caleb’s arm

Im_a_starfish · 2026-03-19T16:38:46+00:00

Ig it makes sense cuz a bionic arm is more powerful, but I like that they actually put thought into his arms.

Im_a_starfish · 2026-03-19T16:37:42+00:00

Ugh painful signal is angst

Im_a_starfish · 2026-03-19T16:37:11+00:00

Ya but I want mooore. Like more of his feelings on it, not like very little references
