Video of the week -- if you never grew old

About Me
- Name: Infidel753
- Location: Portland, Oregon, United States
Individualist, pro-technology, pro-democracy, anti-religion. I speak only for myself and not for any ideology, movement, or party. It has been my great good fortune to live my whole life free of "spirituality" of any kind. I am not Jewish, nor gay, nor (obviously) a woman -- you don't need to be a member of a group to object to them being mistreated. I believe that evidence and reason are the keys to understanding reality; that technology rather than ideology or politics has been the great liberator of humanity; and that in the long run, human intelligence is the most powerful force in the universe.

Greeting's Mr.Infidel!
Nice choice for a video, especially in these time's. Of course I vision a future where this is a reality, and not as far as some may think. If you told folk's who lived only a few hundred year's ago, what 2010 would be like as far as medical breakthrough's and such, I dont think folk's could picture it even.
That's the spirit Guy .... never say never ......
With my luck they will make the breakthrough the day after I die.
Of course the GOP will say that, to limit population, the technology must be reserved for the rich.
RC: Even people who lived 100 years ago would find it hard to imagine a lot of what we have now. And yes, I don't think it will be much longer.
TC: All the more reason to try to live as long as possible.
If the reactionaries try to limit access to life-extension therapies, we'll see about ten million people a year take their dollars to Europe or India to get whatever treatments are necessary.
Just 100 year's ago .... how true!

Please be on-topic and read the comments policy. Spam, trolls, and fight-pickers will be deleted. If you don't have a Blogspot account and aren't sure how to comment, please see here. Fair warning -- I reject all comments containing any of the following:
1. Support for transgenderism
2. Negativity about Brexit
3. Support for a military draft or compulsory national service
I am not obligated to provide a platform for views I find morally abhorrent. And obviously I'm going to delete anything which is just quoting what an "AI" said. I want to hear from you, not from the always-wrong hallucination machine.
No comments advocating violence against any specific identifiable individual, even jokingly.
Please be considerate -- no political or politics-tinged comments on non-political posts, and no performative cynicism. Finally, please remember that this is a personal blog whose main purpose is to encourage contact from people with similar interests and world-views to mine. I really don't much care for arguing and debating; if arguing and debating is what you want, there are plenty of other places on the internet which welcome that.
From now until the finalization of the election results, no comments claiming the Republicans (or Democrats) will or can "steal" the election. It's pointless to engage with such stuff, and it promotes defeatism, which makes people less likely to vote or otherwise be politically active.
