Researchers at the City University of Hong Kong have developed cooling ceramic tiles that replicate the bio-whiteness of the Cyphochilus beetle to deflect heat, reduce home air-conditioning usage, and combat global warming. The ability of their cooling ceramic tiles to repel heat depends on how they interact with light, and they can be effective in two ranges of light, namely the solar range, which comes from the sun, and the mid-infrared range.

Arlecchino's whole deal is unbelievable
Arlecchino: Huh I wonder what's causing my weird powers? I can't really worry about that right now tho, I've gotta become King and then kill my "Mother".
*Kills Clervie and "Mother"*
Arlecchino: Huh I wonder why I was able to defeat a Fatui Harbinger when I'm like 17 or so? I can't really worry about that right now tho, I've gotta be in jail and become a Harbinger.
*Is in jail for a while and becomes a Harbinger*
Arlecchino: Huh I wonder why I am-
Pierro: Hey what's up hello, anyways you're descended from the Crimson Moon Dynasty of Khaenri'ah. I'm sure that this is a lot for you to take in so-
Arlecchino: Ok.
Pierro: ...You're just cool with that?
Arlecchino: IDK maybe? I can't really worry about that at the moment, I'm a father now. This orphanage full of children I love (who also are child soldiers and are not allowed to leave or else I'll execute them except maybe now I'm just gonna wipe their memories IDK I'm morally complex) isn't gonna run itself.
*Runs the orphanage/spy recruitment initiative*
Me, the fucking player: WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU ARE KHAENRI'AN? WHY WASN'T THIS BROUGHT UP IN YOUR FUCKING QUEST?? OR ANYTHING ELSE????
Arlecchino, talking to me through my phone: I honestly don't know why you care, I'm too busy to give a shit. Anyways, I'm gonna go fight fate itself I guess. I'm sure that I don't share any thematic parallels with any other Khaenri'an characters (particularly as it relates to acting and family angst) and that I haven't made the idea of 'curses' on Khaenri'ans and what they entail even more complicated than they already were. See ya.
#arlecchino#genshin impact#pierro#WHY IS THE GAME FUCKING GLOSSING OVER THE FACT THAT SHE IS KHAENRI'AN?!#Not only that but she is the first Khaenri'an we've met (that we know of) who's from the Crimson Moon Dynasty#I'm so fucking confused#Did Celestia place a DIFFERENT curse on members of the Crimson Moon Dynasty?? Or is this stuff all of them can do???#HELP#She also seems almost...uninterested in the fact that she's descended from Khaenri'ah. Which honestly I think is interesting.#I don't know if I like it yet but when every other Khaenri'ah character has one of their major traits being that they super fucking#care that they are Khaenri'an (whether that be Kaeya with his paranoia/destiny/duty or Dain with his guilt over his failure/desire to#prevent our sibling from fucking with anything too much or whatever the fuck is going on with Pierro)#having a character who is Khaenri'an but doesn't seem to particularly be invested in that part of themself is different#she cares more about the curse and its effects on her then she ever really cares about the Crimson Moon Dynasty or the cataclysm#IDK I think it's neat from a character writing angle. or at least it has the potential to be if the writers do a good job.#But from a 'I like maybe 3 things in this game and one of them is Khaenri'ah' perspective it SUCKSSSSS#That part of the plot is already suffering from chronic live-service storytelling disease where people just straight up don't tell you#shit that they logically SHOULD BE TELLING YOU because the game needs to save plot points to build hype around#so for one of like 4-ish (depending on how much we count Albedo) Khaenri'an major characters to give us literally 1 and 1/2 voicelines#kinda sucks ngl. but again it's also interesting and realistic for Arlecchino and from that angle I like it#she doesn't care about what fate says her place in the world is. she's gonna carve her own and being Khaenri'an isn't relevant to#the life and identity she has built for herself. she isn't the type to look for answers she doesn't need. she's practical and efficient.#at the very least it's better than when Albedo 'I want to find all the world's truths' Kreideprinz doesn't let the audience in on his stuff

my biggest overlord type is I fucking hate albedo. fuck that bitch. me when I'm in a worst character competition in my opponent is albedo. SHE IS NOTHING. When I found out she was not in the web novel i was floored. multiple someone's went "you know what this story needs the most annoying bastard on the planet as the secondary protagonist". She even brings the worst OTHER characters. Shalltear is infinitly worse the closer in proximity she is too albedo.

Mid-way through designing a fan monster for AU reasons, and I end up realising that the yuboys die due to Zarc-related complications in the exact order needed for the process to create a philosopher's stone (assuming you see Yuuri and Yuuya dying to one another simultaneously)
Literally Zarc's posthumous magnum opus that revives him in the end. what the hell

Albedo cannot get drunk on alcohol whatsoever. The only thing that really does work for him is neurotoxins.
#hc; albedo#//Dude is pretty much immune to effects of more typically lethal doses of poisons. To a LOT of chemicals; really; medicines included#//Usually; he’d get tipsy to drink as a result of them#//One HELLUVA amount is needed to actually be lethal; and even then; by that point; it’s easy to notice#//Would practically need to give him a fully concentrated amount; he’d even wager respective equivalents to alcohol proofs#//Kae to a far lesser extent holds the immunity too; but while he can get drunk off poisons like Bedo#//He WILL have the most wicked fucken hangover and feel like he got trampled by a lawlchurl overall#hc; kaeya#//Whoop#//Gotta add that#//Halfdan & Rethal; in their present day divergences basically have Bedo’s level of toxin tolerance#//Which Dan is SORELY upset abt#//Bc he does love a good drink; what do you MEAN he’s gotta basically poison himself to get the same buzz as before???#//Bruh imagine how Bedo must have found it out#//Kae I can easily picture it being a Negotiation having inevitably gone South; and him having been poisoned#//And after the church gets traces of wtf knocked him tf out; & telling him he was lucky to still be breathing#//He gets a kick outta realizing the Abyssal energy in him serves for somethin other than offense; would suggest maybe his Vision saved him#//Bedo on the other hand prolly ate smth to test it and Sucrose & Timaeus got to see him sloshed for the first time#//Was very grateful they recorded everything; for references and to get to the root cause#//That or maybe he got poisoned for the sake of getting rid of him too; and thus the two got to see him in such a state

i'm so glad there's a weekly boss i can use him to fight, as underbuilt as he is rn
#⇢₊˚⊹ 🩷∥ruby∥yo,ide yo !!#i let baizhu borrow layla's tenacity set cuz i just have way more hp on it#and the deepwood 4pc effect is irrelevant in this team#(ignore bennett's hp i was dumb and took a big hit right before i finished scaraboss off)#i /can/ use him to fight andrius and dvalin#but i really don't need any more drops from them. i farmed them to death cuz they were the only weeklies i could beat for a long time#i guess i could try using him against azhdaha like i did on the alt#azhdaha always makes me nervous tho#i also don't need that many childe drops. the only characters that use childe drops that i care about are albedo and zhongli#fighting the shogun with him is a living hell cuz she moves so much and i suck at this game#apep too but doubly so because of the second phase that really needs aoe. which lyney isn't great at#also bringing bennett to fight apep doesn't feel very good#my cyno hyperbloom team feels so much like a cheat code#i fight half of the weekly bosses with cyno-baizhu-xingqiu + appropriate flex for each#chongyun for shogun shield breaking,kazuha for apep second phase grouping,fischl for particles#i really owe so much to cyno man#even though his build honestly still kinda sucks,him and his hyperbloom team make literally all the content clearable#anyway back to lyney#i can't wait to get him on marechaussee and not have to worry about crit rate for once in my life#but giving him song of stillness is my number one priority rn#and these fucking bosses are giving me neither billet nor dream solvent#i wish farming dendro sigils was an option. but it's literally the last billet the tree gives at lvl 44#my tree is at lvl 22. i would need 770 dendro sigils to get that billet#it would honestly be faster to just get a second dream solvent from weeklies

I think that it was two days ago?? But I was this close from falling asleep and was scrolling Tumblr obviously. And I was in the suggest posts tab, wasn't even on any tag or anything, then I stumbled on your "low battery warning" post and read it through cause why not ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Bruh when I tell you I wanted to be able to physically EAT the whole thing. The Alhaitham part alone was bouncing around in my head for the whole time since I've read it, to the point I had to go back and search for it to see if I dreamed of it or not. I want I kiss you so hard for having written that, holy balls please never delete or I'll cry ugly tears
Tumblr media
GOD-YALL ARE KILLING ME. I COULD KISS YOU RN. I don't know what it is about this but holy shit- it a K.O for me.
I feel that on a spiritual level of being in bed, probably should be sleeping, but I'm too busy reading fics loll. I'm vv happy to hear that my fic was suggested to you and that you liked it so much. I don't know it feels weird knowing that my work is just out there for anyone to see and not just people who follow me but it's nothing bad.
But I'm telling you, I'm so fucking down bad for Alhaitham. It's not even funny- I have several wips of just him sitting in my drafts. Actually, let me word count it rn. Okay, I have 8k words of barely put-together wips sitting in my drafts for one (1) character I barely know.
