You could build a machine that opens the box far in the future, at the moment when the machine’s reliability starts degrading faster than the utilons increase. This maximizes your expected utility.
Or if you’re not allowed to build a machine, you simply do the same with yourself (depending on our model, possibly multiplying by your expected remaining lifespan).
