You will die before it is possible for humans to live indefinitely

I'll take an early death than eventually dying to overpopulation.

>> No.1748138

That's not true. Everybody lives indefinitely, nobody knows when he will die.
Did you mean infinitely?

>> No.1748143

Imagine living indefinitely with this species?
Guess biological immortality isn't as appealing anymore.

they might have it by 2060, in which case i'll be 71 (max) and rich. maybe i'll save up a lifetime's worth of money in my attempt to buy the new technology.

I wouldn't go far as to say that living up to that long would be impossible but it's highly unlikely to live that long, even under the project.

I'll say it'll make you last for 500years max.

No, I do understand that, but the fact is if this shit were ever to be developed, which it probably will be sometime in the future, it will be designed specifically so it has a big appeal with the public.

There is no way our species could cope with overpopulation on that scale. We're bad enough off now as it is.

Antiparticle-particle annihilation causes 100% of it to be turned into energy if I'm not mistaken. It does not evaporate into nothing.

I'd hate to live in a world where there would be immortality, the younger generation would not stand a chance to catch up to those already alive for longer. After a while all the power will start to focus on a couple of the eldest that have accumulated more than others.
