In that case, roll a die over and over, and you'll have to worry about boredom.
True, but one of those heuristics is you, and you can't stop doing that.
Of course, I don't think any of us think this is very likely to be a problem. I'm basically just playing devil's advocate.
I'm pretty certain you'd have to do some significant self-modification to understand it all on a level that makes it boring, and at that point, you could just self-modify so that it isn't boring.
