This’d be better the other way round; punishing you for not exercising your brain. Wear it for weeks and watch your IQ skyrocket! Just don’t stop studying to sleep or take a piss and you’ll be fine.

I haven’t checked but there should be a timeout after each shock — stress from a shock appears to increase brain activity. Is it clear that these things actually measure “brain activity” and not simply the muscles in the scalp / forehead?

@Alastair

I think setting it up to shock you for NOT thinking would just flat out drive you insane!

It’s not Tron Guy, it’s James Ashby from SMBC-Theater.

sounds like torture.

lol @ the Milgram comment, I was thinking the same thing.

Just turn on the Bethoven and you can play Clockwork Orange.

Nah, I think they’re perfect the way they are: they keep the prisoner/victim/”volunteer”/whatever from thinking too much. It will stop them from any sort of organized riot, I’d say.

andrew: right, thought the same.

Guaranteed to give you a shock sooner or later.
