The feel of pain is a reaction to tell the body that the life of the organism is in danger, there you have it

Yes, program any living thing such that it cannot grow any muscles

Yes. Analog sensors would be required to modulate the experience but it would essentially be installing a , "Rape my existence," function into it.

Rape is when a sensory or memetic experience can be overwritten by another identity/entity. Pain would be considered an overwrite given how highly it is a primary ranked experience.

What have you tried?

Myself by operator overload and operant condition discipline training.

Still works.

Always be polynomic and all NP solution searchers will find you. NP is a non-immediate-shared-domain parameter.

If I always say my observation is OFF-BY-ONE then I get to collect real faithful or social members who deserve a good trolling.

Do something really need to feel the pain so you can feel the pain trough empathy that doing something to it is causing pain?

Physical human pain is a programmed response to nerve damage.Emotional human pain would work the same way except with metaphorical damage to emotional foundations. Spiritual pain, simply hits you at a motivational level, and seeps into every other aspect of your being.

You're on the right track. The real interesting question is why you think that is.

[Anonymous No.10864425]

>>10863324
No. No combination of material accident can have conscious experience of sense, let alone pain, emotion, etc

The answer to that question probanly lies in the way that the human brain translates information in comparison to the processors machine’s use. Sadly my knowledge on the aforementioned subject is limited.
How do we define pain, though ,could be an interesting question aswell: One of the most extreme examples of biological pain could be an instant black-out due to an injury that could otherwise overwhelm the body and send it into shock. This safe mechanism could easily be applied on an android and function similarly to a blue screen on windows. On that case, we would observe the android getting hit really hard, and then dropping un”conscious” in order to avoid short circuits. This is a much more straight-to-the-point version of human pain
