I think the most terrifying consequence of ending aging forever is not even the loneliness or the boredom or anything, but the fact that people will continue dying, except they'll all die of stuff like diseases and accidents, making their death even more tragic than a simple death by so-called "old age", since they'd otherwise be able to keep living indefinitely.

@sorrellion1414 2 жыл бұрын

I feel like the idea of wanting to die after living for a long time comes from the idea that after having experienced "everything" there wouldn't be much worth living for, but imo that really only applies in constrained situations, like the "would you rather die at 40 or live forever alone in a box" dilemma. In the real world, even if you manage to perfect every skill you ever wanted to, there's still all of the other people in the world to surround yourself with. On your own, eternal life might get dull, but if you allow the people around to influence you then I'd imagine live could stay interesting indefinitely.

Well, it's mostly because we transform something we don't have (yet or not) in our power to do, in something we force us to think we want. It's all about perspective. The day it becomes possible, you will see an enormous drop in "I'm ok with dying". I'm not the gambling type, but for that, I might be gambling. That's the interaction that make life interesting. 10 or 100 or 100 000 years. With no interaction, only 1 year could kill you from boredom and by going litteraly crazy. (It's a punition to take someone out of any interaction, and even a torture).

@dismalthoughts 5 ай бұрын

Yeah, I don't see how I'd ever get bored. At no point in the last couple million years have we as a species stopped learning and advancing and growing. I don't think an individual would, either. Knowledge-wise, there will likely always be more to learn. It would take me several years of dedicated study just to master -- truly master -- _many_ (not all) of the aspects of my current job. By the time I did that, everything would have changed, and I'd have to learn all the new stuff. And that's just for my one measly specific role! Let alone all the other fields and stuff to learn! Personal development is a bit more of a question mark for me. I think you could feasibly learn how to get along harmoniously with all 8 billion people in the world. It would take a long time and require a _ton_ of personal growth, but I think it's feasible. If you spent a few millenia cultivating deep, meaningful relationships with just ~500 people, some of them similar to you, some of them vastly different, and some of whom you downright loathe... I don't think there would be much more for you to learn on that front. I would guess that forming deep bonds with the remaining 8 billion would probably be a breeze; you'd see the same patterns emerging that you already learned how to navigate. Or when it comes to dealing with the trauma of life, I _imagine_ you'd eventually reach a pretty Zen place and, again, see all the same patterns emerging over time. That is what I think would be the coolest: gaining an intimate familiarity with all manner of patterns throughout life/reality, then being able to step back and notice higher level meta-patterns between those. I think you could gain some pretty deep wisdom.

Given the option, I would choose to live forever. In fact, I'm actively studying to help in several fields that deal with life-extension research. Mostly, I want to be able to not just do anything, but to do everything. I'd enjoy spending 60 years being a carpenter, then 60 more perfecting my ability to sell the things I make. Perhaps I'd spend 100 years learning all that college could teach you, then a hundred more learning from the mouths of the Albert Einsteins of the time. At the point where there's nothing else to do, I'd start creating things to do, perhaps by researching new technologies, provoking revolts/causing new conflicts both on a macro and micro scale, or just by going out and making friends, enjoying all the possibilities that exist in human interaction. If I truly did manage to do every possible action, think every possible thought, and interact in every possible way, then I would simply wait to do the last thing I want to do; sit on a hill and watch the death of the universe tear me and the planet apart atom by atom

I work in a retirement community, and at 31 it hurts something fierce seeing people in their 90's (a few over 100 even) who are so slowly losing touch. Some of them more aware than others, but all of them touched by age itself. I've repeated told people I really don't really want to hit a point where my mind isn't aware anymore. Cure that. . .it depends on the state of the world. As the world stands now? Honestly? I'm not too sure I would want to go past 80 anyway. Yes, there are a lot of wonderful things in the world, the average individual just based on personal finances though is never going to experience them and I don't see society changing that drastically where you won't see the majority of the work force who (as things current stand) aren't going to be able to retire.

This really hits home for me. I love learning and observing, so the appeal of living a long time to experience more is very strong. But I also like the idea that my body will be recycled and my chemical components will become other things. Kind of an immortality in itself. Do we ever truly die? Were we ever truly alive? It's all very profound. I would like to live long enough to watch the trees I've planted grow to maturity, but I'm already in my 30s, and the window is limited. By the time these trees are old enough to develop hollows to support more life I'll already be dust. Who will buy my land? Will they keep the forest I've planted? Will it be bulldozed to build more houses? What will my legacy amount to? These thoughts make me crave longer life. The desire for control. But as I age I become more accepting that what will be will be, and the more I learn, the less I feel like any of it actually matters. All life must end in the great recycling of the universe, to develop and start again when the right elements come together. Earth is not anomalous. There's simply too much stuff out there for it to be. So what matter what happens to my little speck of existence? One day my elements will be part of a sun or black hole, as once they were, and will be again. But gee...to see those trees grow up would be nice 😄

Die Investoren werfen ihr Geld weg, um ein Heilmittel für die Verjüngung zu entwickeln. Kein Gerontologe ist in der Lage, ein Heilmittel gegen das Altern zu entwickeln. Für Genetiker gilt das noch weniger. Sie verstehen die Natur des Alterns nicht. Alle allgemein akzeptierten Theorien des Alterns sind fehlerhaft und dumm. Selbst diejenigen, die Nobelpreise gewonnen haben, haben sehr fehlerhafte Theorien. Aber es gibt eine echte Theorie des Alterns. Auf der Grundlage der wahren Theorie wurde eine Verjüngungstechnologie entwickelt, die effektiv funktioniert und die Menschen in drei Jahren um 15 Jahre verjüngt. Aber warum die Menschen verjüngen? Sie sollen so lange leben, wie Gott es zulässt. Alle sollten an Altersschwäche sterben. Dies ist das richtige, gerechte Naturgesetz. Инвесторы зря выкидывают свои деньги на разработку средства омоложения. Никто из геронтологов неспособен создать лекарство от старения. Генетики тем более. Они не понимают природу старения. Все общепринятые теории старения ошибочные и глупые. Даже у тех, кто получил нобелевские премии теории очень ошибочные. Но есть истинная теория старения. На базе истинной теории разработана технология омоложения, действует эффективно, за три года омоложение на 15 лет. Но зачем омолаживать людей? Пусть проживут, сколько позволит Бог. Все должны умереть от старости. Это правильный, справедливый закон природы. Investors are throwing their money away to develop a cure for rejuvenation. None of the gerontologists are capable of creating a cure for aging. Geneticists even less so. They do not understand the nature of aging. All the generally accepted theories of aging are flawed and stupid. Even those who have won Nobel prizes have very erroneous theories. But there is a true theory of aging. Based on the true theory, a technology for rejuvenation has been developed, it works effectively, rejuvenating people by 15 years in three years. But why rejuvenate people? Let them live as long as God allows. All should die of old age. This is the right, fair law of nature.

What is left of the legacy and hard work, after death, and his thoughts on youth. It's weird to see how some things never seem to change. The book is between 2100-3000 years old by now. Different people get a very different reads from it. Some feel it's deeply pessimistic and cynical, but others find it pragmatic yet encouraging life.

That only happens in movies. People want to die at an old age due to the pain of living, literally. You will never experience all there is in life, no planet, no galaxy. You will never be able to tell what lies on the other side of the horizon, you will never know what the day or the future will bring you. It is impossible to be bored of life. We're not talking about eternal age only, we're talking about eternal youth. Its self grief and pity at the end, and that can be removed. We can choose to no longer have an age where the old chooses to let go because they are a burden to those around them.

Rejuvenation research is the area of scientific research in which underlying damages that build up and lead to medical conditions (such as most cancers, Alzheimer's, dementia, ect.) are explored in order to create medical therapies (called "rejuvenation biotechnologies"); after the rejuvenation biotechnologies are developed, the elderly will become perfectly healthy, which will, as a side effect of staying perfectly healthy, lead to indefinite lifespans (this is called "longevity escape velocity"); Aubrey de Grey from the SENS Research Foundation (which has published around 90 peer-reviewed papers) thinks there's a 50/50 chance of people and animals reaching longevity escape velocity by the year 2036.

I love how they say "Until you feel tired", it makes the concept of stopping age altogether as a good thing because death will become something we have complete control over, except for accidents or murder.

@theyellowmeteor 2 жыл бұрын

@@joshclark756 In that scenario, lifetime sentences would be undeniably a stupid idea. What's the point of housing, clothing, and feeding a criminal forever? It would make much more sense to try to rehabilitate criminals than to punish them senselessly. It makes sense to do it now, but people seem too vindictive to want that.

@@theyellowmeteor I agree with you on the fact that lifetime sentences forever is dumb, but I don't think we should rehabilitate murderers now because people who have killed innocent people shouldn't have a second chance at freedom because the dead people won't either. But I agree that petty crimes like drugs and stuff should get rehabilitation instead of prison.

@theyellowmeteor 2 жыл бұрын

@@harmony8278 I sympathize with your opinion on murderers, but it's based in a rather primitive idea of retribution. The people the murderer killed aren't coming back to life regardless of what we do. Logically speaking, there's no reason not to rehabilitate as many people as we can, regardless of the crimes they've committed. If we based our justice system on the idea that people can become better, we shouldn't get to arbitrarily restrict the opportunity only to those whose crimes we can personally let slide.

Immortality is not all sunshine and rainbows. You will eventually go insane from not dying from old age. Humans were never meant to be immortal. The brain wouldn't be able to comprehend the very idea. You may think you want to be immortal, but what you as a person thinks is different to how your brain thinks.

It's kind of weird and sad to think of life, knowing we all gonna die anyways and thinking what's gonna happen in 1000 years... Well, it would only be great to live longer to see our children grow old and our loved ones' future which all that matters in the end. To recognise our regrets, our failures, and successive moments and if, ever, we could get a chance to rebirth and make things right...But that's just a myth - the thing is to start now, and don't waste a second of your life especially with your family and friends. ♡♡♡

It may not be only myth, at least for one species. The jellyfish species Turritopsis dorhnii can undergo a literal "rebirth" - their entire body reverts to a baby stage, down to the cellular level. However, they can't do it again until they've fully grown again.

Rejuvenation research is the area of scientific research in which underlying damages that build up and lead to medical conditions (such as most cancers, Alzheimer's, dementia, ect.) are explored in order to create medical therapies (called "rejuvenation biotechnologies"); after the rejuvenation biotechnologies are developed, the elderly will become perfectly healthy, which will, as a side effect of staying perfectly healthy, lead to indefinite lifespans (this is called "longevity escape velocity"); Aubrey de Grey from the SENS Research Foundation thinks there's a 50/50 chance of people reaching longevity escape velocity by the year 2036.
