No. The asymmetry between that degree of pain and that degree of pleasure would be vast. You wouldn't come out the other end of that hour of pain with an intact mind.

Hey Guest,
As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

Old thread to get resurfaced but I'm surprised there are so many "nos".
What do I have to lose? I'll do it. It'll be more interesting than my boring life.

I could say maybe, if I believed such an equivalence could occur and all the side effects would be corrected after.
People get traumatized, get PTSD. There is not, as far as I'm aware, a pleasure "equivalent".
I think a more interesting question would be exchanging significant pain for significant pleasure, and the answer is obviously yes because that's what people choose in life every day. "the best/worst" gets you in the zone of awkward metaphysics nobody can properly reason about.
Yeah like this would be my issue.
