Here's the summary

1. Couple get married (or dont) and have kid(s). They form little groups with other couples with kids.

2. Guys who stay single/fuck buddies/short term/non-committal. No kids. Do whatever they want. Group 1 and 2 no longer associate because of the huge discrepancy in priorities (work/providing vs hedonism/selfishness)

3. Girls who are trying to get married and have kids, usually hang out with 1, but they have to date and fuck 2.

4. Girls who dont want kids, usually hang out with 2 and 3.

5. Couples who dont want kids or dont have them at the moment. Hang out with 1 and 3.

Just turned 29. Everything is fine: the best thing is to give up false youthful aspirations and live authentically, without remorse, without unwanted pressures. Youth is wasted on the young. I prefer to lapse into cozy senility. It's already happening.

Work my 9 -5, cash in the bank. Don't say hi to coworkers. Eat out with my wife. Eat out my wife. Watch only good films, make some lewd art. Sleep in on weekends, night drives in my old car. Plan next year's bean garden. Rake leaves.

Its odd, didnt really seem real, I never thought any of my close friends would really die. I mean we hung out weekly for almost 20 years, went on so many trips together, worked jobs together, partied together, ran a small business together seeing each other daily for years. Playing through so many games together. My best friend without fail would pop by on holidays and my birthday to go party and Id do the same for him. We all had other friends/acquaintances but it was very different, we were always super close and never wanted more friends in like our tight circle. We could discuss anything, no one ever fought with each other, we'd joke about and share secrets of our acquaintances and kept each others secrets. I could hand them thousands of dollars in cash to hold and theyd return it. I honestly cant imagine ever gaining friends like these, so when my best friend passed it was kind of like part of my childhood gone. He has the other side to so many storys. Its really impossible for me to even imagine getting a new friend and spending that much time with someone ever again to build that level of trust/friendship. I was the best man at his wedding and always thought he'd repay the favor one day.

Well if we're going to get technical there are multiple ways you could extend life that wouldn't involve machinery.
In fact it's even possible to do while staying 100 percent organic (it involves some genetic alterations we can't do yet and periodically replacing body parts as they wear out, like parts in a car).

Though in all honestly the most likely way is nanotech, in which case despite it being synthetic there is absolutely no outside signal or 'hacking' possible. You've got to understand that these nanobots would be too small to have something like that in them, they would be designed to operate more or less like organic cells, reacting to chemical signals and such, not operating on anything advanced enough to be hacked.

TLDR your fears are unfounded, it's unlikely that life extension would necessitate hackable machinery be installed into your brain or body.
