I’ve been watching Tech Ingredients search for the best shield material to test their Drone destroying extreme high power laser setup indoors for obvious reasons.
It turned out to be fruits/veggies. Nothing else came close. So he went with panels filled with thickened water.

That makes sense. The specific heat of water is a real bastard to overcome.

I’m personally skeptical of laser based weapons, given that they have one wavelength. once one is developed and deployed, it will be trivial to paint drones with a reflective paint specific for that wavelength.
The results is a nation investing 100s of millions on a weapon, that once deployed will be countered by 1000s $ of spray paint.
imagine if you could get a t-shirt that could deflect a any bullet. that’s what still happen with laser based weapons.

I think that wouldn’t necessarily work once you get to the right wavelengths for it to start interacting with the organic bases of the paints. There’s only so much you can do when someone shoots an infrared laser at the resonant frequency of a C=C double bond.

Fake news: the underside of the ball is room temperature. Nice fucking try though.

The pineapple will be just fine the flesh touching the steam on the other side spread all over your body by the pineapple keeping it pressed against your skin on the other hand is going to have a nice chard bbq taste.

If the steam doesn’t get you, the enzymes breaking down your proteins would surely give you horrible skin irritation.

Does it work when the skin is properly dried though? Armor would dry out over time.

Ya, it’s all a big lie brought to you by billionaire dragons. They’re just trying to get you to wrap yourself in a tasty garnish so that they get a nice citrus flavor once they are done roasting you.

You’ll have to keep moist and wet. Oh so wet.

My friend calls pineapples ‘Dragon Eggs’ and tossed one into a bonfire. Pulled it out later to have the most delicious roasted sweet mythical egg ever

Sounds tasty. I can vouch for lemons undergoing a similar transformation. Wrap them in foil, seal it really well, and chuck them near a fire or bbq. They come out soft, sweet, and delicious.

I would like to subscribe to lemon facts.

Like, in the middle of the fire? For how long? Wanna try it in the future

Tossed it in when the fire was at peak flame, and then waited for the wood to burn, the pineapple looked like a big piece of black coal

Roasted pineapple is delicious. Coat it on some brown sugar, roast it, then carve off the toasted bits. Repeat.
