Interesting.  I wonder if the subject's sense of personal identity, responsibility and culpability could be maintained throughout, b/c you know how integrating disruptions in temporality can be to a person's social conformity...  Really.
What?

He is talking, I believe, about the fact that experiences that disrupt a person's sense of elapsed time often go hand-in-hand with a psychological disconnect from both personal identity and society.

It's my suspicion that a person placed in what is effectively a sensory deprivation chamber will probably disconnect completely after just a few perceived days.
Ah, thanks for the translation. That use of the word integrating confused me.

In psychology, integration is a term that means basically the opposite of compartmentalization; it's the organization of all the different parts or aspects of a psychological and social identity into a cohesive and functional whole.

I want a drug that makes prisoners feel like they've only been in for 8 hours, but actually makes them serve 1000 years.

Not for any particular reason, mind.  Just because.

Meth or any stimulant can help with that.

DEAR DOCTOR FUCKING MORON,

THE TECHNOLOGY YOU DESCRIBE GIVES US A PRACTICALLY UNLIMITED AMOUNT OF BRAIN POWER.

HOW'S ABOUT WE USE IT TO WORK OUT WAYS TO KEEP OURSELVES SAFE WITHOUT PRISONS?
Like, just offa the top of my head, we could use this to teach things to students that would otherwise take months of time in a matter of weeks(new languages, history, classic literature) but nah, lets fuck with prisoners instead

The Romulans (I think) did that shit to Chief O'Brien in DS9 (I think). It did not end well and it turned out he was innocent, but batshit. I don't think real live science should be taking its cues from crazy aliens on TV. This is not what we call 'improvement' or 'progress'. It's what we call WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?

That would actually be a better way of dealing with criminals. You take away all they love without doing something as unethical as slaughtering their friends and family. Also, in a thousand years the society will have changed so there is a small but real chance their behaviour will be acceptable then.
