As I understand wireheading, it’s equivalent to experiencing a lengthy orgasm. I would describe an orgasm as pleasurable, but it seems inaccurate to call it “fun”, or to call the state of experiencing an orgasm as “happiness”.
Just as a note, I don’t experience orgasms as pleasurable. In fact, orgasms seem to me an excellent case in point of the difference between wanting and liking, at least in my case.
