Yeah. That does work. I do that sometimes, though my eyes start to hurt when I roll them up for that long.
I also find it easier to do something with my eyes than to do nothing while thinking. That’s probably just me.
In the future, I might want an led embedded in one of my temples, that will blink like a network switch port or hdd light that indicates brain activity.
Also filler text while you think is good to practice. “That’s actually a well informed question, what I’ve seen is….” Buys you 5 seconds if you can say it on autopilot and think while your mouth is moving
lol, yeah the trick is to use them as sparingly as possible and have a dozen or so to rotate. I'm not sure if I qualify as a slow thinker the way OP and some others here are discussing it. But, I do frequently need more time to answer complex problems. I've also started just feeling OK telling people I can follow up with them on certain questions as it's too complex to answer off top of my head. As with anything, it's a balance, I find if you can't answer simple questions people will lose confidence in your answers.
That is a hilarious bodymod. And considering that is is possible to get rough brain activity indicators in a non-invasive manner, something like it could actually be made.
