I tend to think I’d wire-head at first, but then some implications I find on more reflection make me unsure.
Same here. That is, I know I’d wirehead—I don’t see any bothersome implications with that idea alone. However, if you add in something like “once you wirehead you are immobile and cannot do anything else”, then I become more unsure.
It does not matter if you are immobilized. Once you are wire-heading there is no reason you would ever stop since you’ve already got peak pleasure/joy. I think this effectively immobilizes you. There is no problem that could come to you that wouldn’t be best solved by more wire-heading, except for a threat to the wire-heading itself.
