All who misbehave will be put in the agony booth.

And then the pattern buffer.

    Where do I sign up for a shift in the booth?

    To be clear I don’t want to run it, I just want a bit of time inside to feel something.

    Signed,

    And then back in the agony booth immediately from the pattern buffer once the queue has cycled?

      Some enterprising cadet needs to just invent the agony buffer already. Seems more energy efficient that way.

        At last! I’ve finally invented the agony buffer, as seen in the viral hit holodeck sim “Please don’t invent the agony buffer.”

          Next step - the temporal agony buffer, where you can live a full 80 year cycle in less then an hour.

    (needs audio, annoyingly won’t stop after first playthrough but plays in a loop - anyone know how to tell it to do that?)

      It needs to truly be externally hosted instead of embedded like this. Lemmy embeds are lacking a lot, but I doubt proper audio for them is even planned.

        Lemmy is most definitely still in beta, if not alpha even, though we all have fun here:-).

      It actually sounds like it could be part of a song like this hah. Like part of that weird frontier psychiatry song.

    AGONY booth. Oh. Well. That explains why my plans were rejected.

    Ah, y’know what they say, “When you accidentally build a suicide booth, it’s best not to let it go to waste”. Slow N’ Painful’s, free of charge, everyone!

    Ok but what if I developed some weird fetish after my first visit to the booth?

    Punishment? … What if we want to be in the Agony Booth and the Pattern Buffer just so we can momentarily escape this deep dark aimless and pointless existence?

    For me and my shitty body, a trip to the agony booth would be a vacation. So what inflammatory language do I need to use to be sent there?
