Three minute reset

The three minutes' reset is the ultimate fix tech. It is undertaken when someone is too clouded by emotion to act morally and rationally, for example in cases of sexual obsession where the shamili refuses to leave the object of their passion alone. It involves putting the shamili into an unfloated orb for three minutes. Since the orb interfaces completely with the sensory nerves, yet does not provide any content, this is equivalent to a complete sensory deprived state. However the orb keeps close watch on the vital signs. The person comes out as if from a deep sleep. Memory and personality are not affected; however, anger and hurt feelings are much dampened, as if by months of distancing.

The most famous instance of the use of the three minute reset was after Tira's Rescue. The entire population of Feenix Basha had to undergo this fix.
