what if we let the boomers die?
just playing devil's advocate here literally. and I know there's a zillion boomers right here on lb.
but we are shutting down the planet, this is the largest mutual effort in history. the only thing that compares is oddly enough, war.
in war old leaders decide to send young people to their death, wiping them out and their many potential offspring. yet the old are especially protected. this doesn't make sense in any societal or evolutionary way it just serves the self interest of the old - who happen to be the rulers calling this shot.
now the young are called up again, in history's largest timeout they will lose finances, jobs and sanity as they are terrified into submission to save .0001 of the population, nearly all of who will die from other causes within a few years.
im not really advocating we let anyone die, i am happy to sacrifice for them further than this but lets call this what it is, the story that is always hidden. self interest from the ruling class.

I disagree strongly with the war comparison - that's not an example of a mutual effort, but the opposite: it's an example of large scale confrontation. People were called up to defend/attack from other people. MILLIONS of people died over YEARS.
This is a public health crisis, not a war. And the young haven't been called up, keyworkers, carers and health staff have. When I've been out and about with my family, it's fairly clear that the younger generations are the least bothered by what's going on, and aren't necessarily abiding by the guidelines to any effective degree.
And sadly, I don't think this is even something defined by the self interest of the ruling class. I think it's exposed the current ruling class is about as clueless as it ever had been. Johnson's flabby ensemble of random wankers have never at any point been good leaders. They got there off the back of a dishonest, divisionary Brexit campaign based on some entirely different agenda. They now have absolutely no idea what they're doing.
Hopefully it will serve as a reminder to humanity that if a democracy is to succeed, you can only back honest, able and skilled statesmen. Anyone less means we're fucked if there's any deviation from their intended narrative.
I don't blame anyone in this scenario. It's a collective human failure that it escalated to this scale. What I think matters now is the outlook, vision and ability of the leaders that might rebuild for the future. In 2019, world leadership probably never looked so weak... in the entirety of human history. And in the UK, we've currently got one of the most inept setups. BUT. Look at Starmer circling, look what we need to overcome, look what we want to build.
Give it a year or two and I think HOPE will be a usable word again. The Johnson/Trump/Bullshit breed need to move aside.

agree somewhat, the damage to economy is going to kill tens of thousands alone, potentially more than would be lost to Covid, but perhaps not (Not an expert by any means). I invite people to look at how many people died on average each 2010-2015 due to austerity measures and debt. Suicides will go up to.
You'll have to send out the nurse on the Segway and take my teeth away!
it's just their point in the cycle. the saddest part is that they think they're enlightened when they're actually browbeaten hippy-child retards.
I know my case is extreme, but its not just old people who need protecting. My son is 2 years old and immunocompromised from chemotherapy. I don't fully believe in the lockdown but it is a bit more assuring for me that it isn't running rampant out there.
You definitely have a point.
The approach of "us-versus-them' is in fact a very European way of dealing with matters.
Indifference to social position, and consequently, acceptance of one's social status no matter what it is, became somehow a doctrine and a duty in the current world (if we are honest to ourselves): it is really the ideal philosophy, an ideological superstructure adequate to peacefully govern our world, conquered with its own consent.
'The old" send "the young" to wars. Because, "the young" (well, all ages really) willingly accept, for example, army duty.
It is only natural, that in current situation, "the young" are contemplating 'retaliation'. :)
I think, the value of a human life became something very insignificant.
Young people wait on the old to die in retirement homes, old are upset with the young, that they show no respect, etc.
A vicious circle.
And we do not really value human life, because we do not understand the concept of self-worth.
Which is nowadays confused with 'pouvoir d'achat', like they say in french (ability to buy). Just look at who the majority of humans are looking up to (movie stars, ufc fighters, etc.)
The thing is, we are never independent or self-made, and we all hopefully will be old one day too. So what connects old and young is gratitude.
No life is more important than another, whether it is an old life or a young one.
And no ideology or state will defend this point at all times, speaking sociologically or/and economically. It is self-damaging to an ideology or a state.
Should we or should we not do this or that? I don't know. Each individual should decide for himself.
I know that generalising (oh those olds, oh those youngs, oh those russians, oh those arabs, oh those french, oh those - would be an insult to my own intelligence.
A boomer is different from another boomer. And i am a survivor and want my children to be survivors too.
I may be never be in a position where i can decide on a broader scale of "should we or should we not".
But i can decide on my personal level and i just value life more than i value my ego.
Here is my humble opinion.
Thank you for being brave and raising this point.
It is important to discuss without fear to offend.
That is what freedom of speech is no?

Very thoughtful post (what a pleasure to read this instead of another sycophantic review), thank you for it my bigga.
I'm going to differ on one point. I think the perceived value of life is heading up and pretty much always has.
We are in the midst of the greatest human sacrifice for the least number of lives (in relative terms) ever.
Today's wars kill fewer in total than we lost in a week in WW1 or 2.
Murder rates are way down compared to history.
The financial investment made to squeeze out a few more years is more substantial than even our most recent ancestors could ever imagine.
There's lots more stats like this, they are hard to see when media profits from perceived conflict and makes everything look cataclysmic to get your attention.

It is an interesting read. A prospective.
But, I believe what i see and I see a lot of tragedy.

Im in the self employed bracket its truly shit but i think society will come out of this better on the whole
I am in the same boat and i like your positive outlook.
"Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the time" - right?
We should also come out of this with as less damage and casualties as possible.
Been self-employed throughout 3 different continents and over a decade already and self-employed equals survivor to me at this point.

What if we just quarantine the old baby boomers and give them priority at hospitals, that way the rest of us can keep the world going and contsruct what they need.
I am sorry to read that.
Is being self-employed an option?

My family at the moment is throwing punches at the state mechanisms of supporting struggling businesses - we apparently fall into a category of self-employed families with children.
It's been already more than a month of letters' skirmish haha

Me too.
But i try to think of stress like of sore muscles after a workout. Eventually you surpass it and get used to it.
Sexretary is a good idea!

sorry for the typo. - secretary
Me too. My industry was among the first to go, About 2 weeks before lock down got told to stay at home no income... Now im out of a job completely.
Same here
It’s fucked up isn’t it, I’m in that small percentage of self employed who ain’t getting jack shit...I’d work tomorrow but not many want people in there houses now
We can only hope that this flys by and we can get back to work
Some sectors have increased in number of available positions, maybe worth looking into those sectors to get some work for the mean time

It is survival time at the moment. I like your attitude.
Holiday - strategising and regrouping time!
It does seem if we were a little more honest about this we might come up with a better solution than locking everyone up.

For me personally its between Bioshock infinte and the last of us.
GTA 4 is up there along with uncharted 4, Halo 1-3, Papers please and God of war 1-4.

Metro Exodus is pretty intense. I agree, Bioshock Infinite was pretty awesome. Saying that Bioshock 1+2 were pretty raw. Best plot ever, though? Has to be 'The Secret of Monkey Island 2'.
Like many others, 'last of us' will always stay in the mind and I'm eager to play no2.
So many others worthy of note, but I'm also big fan of Horizon on ps4, such an excellent story and characters and possibly my fave of this gen.
Honorable shout out to 'Days Gone' which never got the praise it deserved imo.

Max Payne 2: Fall of Max Payne - I like that noiresque atmosphere, the music, the over the top melancholic atmosphere... It harmonised well with my mood back then...
There are so many...
Witcher 3 has to be up there with the best along with all 3 bioshock games. Halo 1-3 & the latest god of war. Here hoping cyberpunk 2077 can join them too!

I mean... Mass effect. Always. Well, not Andromeda. Fuck Andromeda.
The game I've enjoyed the most in many a year has been Dying Light, it's so well made.
GTA
Pathologic 2. To quote one of the user reviews on Steam, "In all my life I don't expect to play anything quite like this ever again."
So bleak and the premise is a little close to home at the moment but I was still thinking about this game weeks after I finished it.

Got to be final fantasy 9 I remember playing it as a 10 yr old and was super emotional lol
The last of us, for sure. What an emotional journey. Really looking forward to the next one coming out. Can’t wait to dive into that. Really nice to have summat to look forward to in these trying times. Much love.
Metal Gear Solid on the PSone blew my mind, the other MGS got a bit preachy but the PSone version had everything, great game play, great stelf sections, good action sequences etc etc I still think about the bit where Psycho Mantis moves your controller, freaked me out.
Metal Gear Solid Series was excellent. Loved God of wars. First Bioshock was awesome. Assassins creed Odyssey was decent enough!
Anything from the dragon quest series, elder scrolls oblivion. Dragon age origins.
Old School- I used to love the original Silent Hill on Playstation, thought that was a really clever game. Also MYST.
Silent hill for sure, was Syked for new one coming out with Kojima onboard but alas, it wasn’t to be
Loads of rumors about a reboot for the series but I'm not sure I even want it if Yamaoka isn't onboard. Kojima's take would've been interesting, though. Shame we never got more than a demo.
It got shit on constantly but I fucking LOVED Destiny 1 and 2. The story was meh, but the game itself ran so smoothly and in my opinion was one of the best FPS games to come out in years. I did stop playing a few months back though because I just had nothing left to do in it.
Story wise either Last of Us or God of War 5.
Story wise either Last of Us or God of War 5.
The story in destiny is about to be blown open and I cant wait! Bring on september!
Literally just bought Shadowkeep like a week ago. Got my Titan to 965 so far. Now for the Warlock and Hunter lol. Forgot how much I enjoyed playing the game
MarioKart on the SNES.
No but seriously, i'm not a massive gamer but when i started playing 'Half-life' (i can't remember which platform maybe PC) i genuinely got quite scared during the first 30 minutes.
I'm sure i'm showing my age here but yeah, it kinda freaked me out.
Cheers. BB

Liked witcher 3 storyline.
Bit like game of thrones, but mainly just addicted to gwent.

100% the witcher. Managed to get every gwent card aswell even when you could very easily miss a few card through wrong decisions.
For me Heavy Rain really stands out, also Shenmue 2 and LA Noir, all so far ahead of their time.
GTA 4, more recently Red Dead Redemption 2 and The Last of us was also pretty epic, I’m looking forward to part 2.
Monkey Island ftw
Yes!
Shenmue on the Sega Dreamcast, written directed and produced by Japanese genius Yu Suzuki. Beautiful and way ahead of it's time.
A teenth of Afghan black, Ericsson T18 on silent, while i roamed the streets of Japan. Those were the days!

I don't think I've ever seen Shenmue mentioned as many times in one thread as I have this one. There's some correlation between stoners and Shenmue, apparently haha. I got the first 2 games in a humble bundle a while back. Gonna have to give them a bash.
Have you played the new Shenmue? Shenmue 3 I think? I played a load of the original on Dreamcast back in the day and bought the remastered version for PS4 that had 1&2 on it (wasn't as good as I remembered) intresting to know if 3 is any good.
Evil within or hitman, which is an ongoing plot over a number of years. Quantum break.
The Sims was so classic it was ahead of its time.
ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS FOLLOW THE TRAIN CJJJJJ!!!!!

Does Cannabis work with humans for its own gain?

Does Cannabis work with humans for its own gain?
Sounds weird I know, but do you think that cannabis attracts us to further itself? I mean it's a stationary plant that has very little means of spreading and evolving in the wild. But since we have discovered its usefulness for ourselves we have helped it evolve into what it is today. And In return it makes itself stronger and more controllable for our will. It is well known that plants attract bees and not the other way around so what's to say they aren't doing the same to us?
Animals eat plants and shit the seeds out so yeah i guess.
Evolution. There's no thought process behind it all...it just happens. Cannabis evolved to have flowers because birds and animals were eating the cannabis with the nicest flowers and spreading that about. Cannabis doesn't make itself stronger, its selectively bred to be stronger.
Have a look at what normal veg used to look like before selective breeding. Corn looks like a completely different plant than what it used to now.

Love this thought and it reconciles, we are serving cannabis' genetic purpose:
fecundity - more greenhouses every day
fidelity - our buyer reviews maintain integrity
longevity - humans have basically coupled their own survival to cannabis, as long as we are around it's going to be with us.

My fam will say I am escaping "reality" yet as soon as I am stoned I see what so much of their idea of reality is. LOTS OF LITTLE SHIT elevated to the hysteria of survival.
Yeah look at me escaping reality by thinking about the universe I am sitting in instead of standing in line to buy something I saw on TV.

Has your fam ever tried cannabis?
that's a cool way of putting it and i wonder maybe a definition of what it means to be conscious? intelligent beings will always expand their reality.
That is the escape, it opens your mind to the bigger picture, you can see who should or shouldn't be in your close circle, you can see what matters easier
I don't get high to escape I get high to open my mind

Bahahaha
Thought I'd add my own two cents into this.
I respect everyone's own view and opinions on the matter just wanted to make that clear.
I watched a debunk documentary by two men named Michael Hieser and Chis White and it truly blew my mind. It's extremely interesting, factual and I would recommend watching the whole thing. If anyone wants to watch it here's the link:

It seems plausible with the stuff that they show on tv, although is that the stuff I was blazing making it out to be??
Its under the ice.
I really don't know. I've watched documentaries on the theory but haven't made my mind up. I love hearing about alternative views though so I'm going to try Joe Rogan's podcasts mentioned in the conversation. It's kind of fun presenting theories like that to people you know are staunch nonbelievers. I like the reactions you get. I guess I'm open minded about that kind of thing until I get a first hand experience that confirms or denies it.
the Hindu religion in my opinion is the most accurate depiction of how we probably were started off. ( Humans as we are today) - Their idiology of reincarnation fits well with the model described within the ancient tablets (
The similarities between such other nations stories, particularly the Sumarian's in relation with the Annunaki i see, and i think they are not given enoug wqeight in modern history.
I myself see many similarities with the bible and older tales, stories of bloodlines ie Noah, Shem Ham and Japeth - The sons were said to be the retelling of the legends of Enoch and Enlil (guardians of Eden) - from the book of Enoch
Just my ramblings of thought, but great topic to discuss here :) :)

I'm sure if I was some ancient alien leaving buildings on some other planet I'd be back to check on them. What's the reasoning for these aliens just leaving little hints around the place?
I think the simplest answer is most likely the truth, there wasn't any aliens. People built stuff that looks odd because people are odd.

Ha ha. ' People built stuff that looks odd because people are odd.'
Ancient people didnt just build odd stuff, they built intricately designed structures with mathematical precision
This is what make me think there was never aliens but a previous global civilisation that were more technologically advanced than the history books tell us. The evidence they left behind is to real.
It just made me laugh the way this comment was phrased.
The evidence is everywhere. See the religious texts and reference to ships of light, fairy folklore Etc All the same phenomena but through different lenses in my opinion. Look for the books by Jacques Vallee. Unacknowledged on Netflix is worth a watch too.
You're taking text from 3000 years ago, and using that as your "evidence."
What about the bible, that must all be true too?

Okay perhaps the term ‘evidence’ is too strong when referring to old texts. just offering my opinion on this phenomena which may or may not be ‘aliens’.
Check out the recent videos released by the US Navy I.e. tic tac and Gimbal. Also the many reports with multiple credible witnesses.

Read some of Graham Hancock’s work or furthermore listen to the book of Enoch (the watchers), it’s not for everyone but a fascinating listen all the same. I have also been looking at the Megalithic masonry it’s mind boggling, Puzzle!
I do have believe in ancient aliens especially in regards to The Pyramids construction.

There is a pod cast with Joe Rogan and Bob Lazar. Bob had mentioned that the craft he was working on was dug out of the ground. Speculating it had been buried for hundreds of thousands of years.
It was a very compelling pod cast.

The evidence has been left all around the world. For what ever reasons it is not taught in schools. Why is that? Hmmmm...
Look at this for an example of evidence ....

Thats just some YouTube video showing some mayan stuff with some creepy music in the background...that is not evidence.
Me? I like the young ones.
I like thinking of it from the Alien's POV, it makes some sense visiting a super primitive culture like we look at messing with animals.

Are We Living in a Computer Simulation?

Are We Living in a Computer Simulation?
Oxford philosopher Nick Bostrum: "members of an advanced civilization with enormous computing power might decide to run simulations of their ancestors. They would probably have the ability to run many, many such simulations, to the point where the vast majority of minds would actually be artificial ones within such simulations, rather than the original ancestral minds. So simple statistics suggest it is much more likely that we are among the simulated minds."
All is revealed when you dose up on the dmt research chemical or plants/bark etc....and the people that have...know .... and those that do not partake in such chemicals or natural dmt, are still asking the questions. Simply put ... dmt shows you whats really going on. In my experience and understanding and many years navigating this 'life'. :)

i'm really there stoned brain juice wise and have figured out most of the universe (turns out quantum gravity is what differentiates the smell of our farts) but i still cant figure THIS out
more important things going on......
go back and smell your farts, the answer is waiting silently.
to even things out. granted we have a ways to go but we can do this.

Opium War Guilt Quickly Dissipating
Opium War Guilt Quickly Dissipating
See there's always a positive side to things.
My missus thought it would be funny to start flicking the letter box, she got me good ran to the door like a dog when the postman turns up but nothing there. That made me sad. Lol
All my friends are taking this social distancing thing pretty seriously... they haven't spoken to me for weeks.
Pretty sad.
No, we are quite clearly not alone.... I’d say it’s actually statistically impossible we are alone, our understanding of ‘life’ and where life can be sustained is based on organisms we know, all these uninhabitable planets are uninhabitable to us and to life we understand, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
Statistically, we could be the only living souls in this Universe.
However, this Universe is not the end of the world, as we know it.
However, this Universe is not the end of the world, as we know it.
Great question; one that all of us probably think about often. However, I sometimes wonder if it's the wrong question. The question of life outside of Earth -- is it a red herring? If a miracle like life can arise in the Universe, what else might be going on out there in the Vast Wilderness? Is life the ultimate miracle, or could there be other fantastic things out there which are just as profound as life? Do we have a tendency to exhibit bias in our curiosity about ET life because we are life forms ourselves?
What other flavors of miracle might be out there? Is life just one of the many rare, yet possible, phenomena that can happen? Or is it the "be all end all" of fantastical things?
What else might there be besides life that is equally profound? I don't know. I'm just a glorified monkey with no access to warp speed. And I'm still waiting for the JWST to launch.

I don't think we're alone but maybe we are the most advanced civilization in our immediate vicinity because there is literally no evidence of life in the past or present that we can observe. If another civilization were peering in a telescope at our Solar System they would see satellites, etc. but we see nothing when we look outwards.
This could mean we're the most advanced or maybe we're so far behind that we cannot even perceive them. I mean does an ant really know what's going on when a human puts a cup around it? Imagine it turns out things like black holes are just entities taking a dump haha
Spent much time thinking about the Fermi Paradox when stoned

I'm going to disagree, looking at our age vs that of this universe it seems there's plenty of time to extend your reach across it. Surveillance from such an inter-dimensional intelligence seems almost trivial so why not, we might be entertaining every now and then.
"I don't think we're alone but maybe we are the most advanced civilization in our immediate vicinity"
Wholeheartedly agree. I also suspect that life is extraordinarily rare. Much more so than is probably assumed. If I'm right, then that makes the "immediate vicinity" you refer to even wider. Also, as you know, "vicinity" is a matter of time as well as space. If extraterrestrial observers of our home planet are any further than say... 60 LY from us, then they wouldn't see "satellites, etc.", or any sign of intelligent life.
I also think it's early days in the Universe. We are 13.5 B years in, with how many more trillions to go?

After all the shit that's being going on in the world up to now, no i really don't think we are alone in this universe, i hope one day that proof of other other life forms can actually be established, as i know that there are other planet's with a similar structure to earth that are indeed habitable, but getting to one of them is near on impossible, especially with regards to the type of technology we have as of right now.
I do not believe in conspiracy theories that aliens have visited Earth, but I definitely believe there is life out there somewhere. It's possible that life exists on Saturn's largest moon, Titan. There are some missions to Titan being planned to find out if life exists there.
I am a believer of the Multiverse theory, that there are other universes outside of our visible universe.
I highly recommend getting stoned and laying out at night looking at the sky. If you have binoculars bring them along! Telescopes are better but not everyone has access to one.
You can also download the free open source planetarium, https://stellarium.org/
I use it almost daily to see when the moon will rise and set, as well as planning out stargazing sessions.
We are all made of stardust. We are all connected.

I think the odds favor a visit, we gotta be interesting to someone. We are likely being observed now because the tech would be trivial for a billion year old civilization.
If only nasa would be truthful and tell people what they know. Instead of hiding their findings. Cutting short live images from the international space station as soon as something strange fly's by.cum on NASA spill.
Of course there are other beings in the universe. Since we now know earth-like planets are quite common, and that 1 in every 10 stars have at least 1 habitable planet candidate, it would imply there are millions, if not billions of planets with life. Whether that is intelligent life or not depends on evolution and a number of other factors.
Space is getting smaller with the tech they have, it just keeps getting better the tech. Soon I think they will find some sort of life. I'm really confused at how they know how many light years away something is,cant get my head around that . Interesting article the other day on nasa site posted if your into your space news UK 420 10/10
There's got to be some other things out there. It would be arrogant of us humans to think that we are the only civilised life in the entire universe. I just hope when they make an appearance they've got some kick ass weed. Lol

When my edibles kick in I start feeling empathy for everyone - including my biggaz here - love y'all :)
I think there's a chance LSD unlocked this for me, I can't remember feeling this way before it.

If you're in the UK, and still feel the same way today at 8pm (Thursday 26th March) you can join me and others to give our heartfelt thanks to the NHS for all their hard work and sacrifice at the moment.
I'm certain it would be much appreciated mate.

Hell yes. And right now I'm feeling super empathetic to the people that don't feel this. If there weren't people like this the world would be a mess I think, they are people that are critical, precise and tough as hell on themselves. They set standards in this world and enable the rest of us!
I'm way nicer to anyone around me, too nice sometimes, like they know I'm stoned. Then they think it's "not real" and I'm not getting love back and them vamoose :(

Stoned AI
I'm not a science guy but was wondering would it be theoretically possible to get AI high? And if so, what are the possible outcomes?
This is a good philosophical question
Thanks for the input people. We'll, I assume that AI would prefer concentrates as its the natural evolution of cheeba, applying a coating of thc liquid using nano technology to the AI chip. Or the boring option programing the AI to mimic the cerebral high.
But just imagine, this vast supreme super intelligence, spaced out and then asked the meaning of life the universe and everything in it. To which the AI replies, 420.

I would feel safer if we could get AI stoned.
Sure just sold some shatter to an AI last week they love Diesel
Never even thought of this or even knew that this was a topic that could be debated :D but I wouldn’t of thought so due to how the human brain works if you’re comparing humans to ai in terms of robots. Unless this could be incorporated into their program but I wouldn’t of thought so due to humans having an endocannabinoid system. I’m not much of a science guy myself, but I do love exploring the possibilities of what could happen in the future in terms of artificial intelligence and humans. But a very interesting topic, if this gets more views and can form a big discussion I’m all for it, cause I too want to know what other people think of this and whether there’s a chance of it happening. Very interesting question though HBiz.

best term for non-stoners?
best term for non-stoners?
i am creatively paralysed until someone can help me out on this
Is there a need for that? Both can co-exist without making the other the bad one.
Everyone should just do what they like.
The issue that i am more concerned with is that those who consume aren't treated the same. Even in many so called legal areas social acceptance is still far from what it is let's say towards tobacco, alcohol, video games or social media addictions.
But anyways, bless the non-stroners - more goodness for us.

Covid 19; man made or bat soup?
would love to hear anyones theories as to how this covid 19 started kicking about. is it man made or a genuine mutation of a sickness boiled up in a bat broth?
Those who sell the panic, are the same that sell the pill..
In all seriousness though I love the conspiracy theories but nature is so much more clever than we are.
I for one am no longer eating bat soup.

Life extension and reversal of the Epigenetic Clock. Good or bad?

Life extension and reversal of the Epigenetic Clock. Good or bad?
Hey, I dont know if this has already been covered on here but it's something I find fascinating since I was introduced to Prof. David Sinclair by the Joe Rogan experience (#1234 and #1349 if you're interested)
I have attached an article about a small study that was done in California. The study only had 9 subjects and no control arm so I dont think we can take it TOO seriously. But the results, quite frankly, were astonishing.
I'm not going to try and explain how all of this works as I'm sure I'll butcher it but here's a key paragraph from the article.
'For one year, nine healthy volunteers took a cocktail of three common drugs — growth hormone and two diabetes medications — and on average shed 2.5 years of their biological ages, measured by analysing marks on a person’s genomes. The participants’ immune systems also showed signs of rejuvenation.'
To me that's pretty crazy, right? And from what I understand there are a couple of effective substances/medications available for reversing the epigenetic clock than were not used in this study.
And if you pay attention to Prof. Sinclair he believes that it is well in the realm of possibility that we could live anything up to 80 years longer in the future.
But what happens when we are all living til we are 180 years old? Will we have enough resources? Will the planet be able to cope with the inevitable mass increase in human population if this is the case? I mean, we seem to be struggling a bit globally as we are.
Just thought it was an interesting topic and would love to know your thoughts.
Happy Monday

Why? shouldn't we all be asking why we want to live longer, rather than going along with that reactionary action from deep in the psyche of 'Yes ofcourse I want to live longer!' and I don't care why I do........
if you aren't suicidal you want to live, what more do you need than that?
yes sounds like a survival instinct. but isnt that the idea around this evolutionary space?
Thanks just that genetic measurement of age is an eye opener. Seems once you can do this you can measure everything we do against it.
Hey Han, yes indeed it is an eye opener. From what I've read that will be exactly the case. We should be able to mesure how specific habits etc. directly affect the epigenetic (horvath) clock. Exciting times for sure!

"constructal law posits that all animate or inanimate systems—art, trees, people, organizations, and financial structures—follow the natural design principle of flow.
"The rule states that for any system to persist over time, it must evolve according to impositions, working with currents that flow through it, and moving with them. To survive and thrive, we must accommodate visible and invisible pressures."
DUDE GREAT SCIENCE PRIZE WEVE KNOWN THIS SINCE THE 1ST TIME WE GOT HIGH just sayin

Another gem "The more ideas we encounter and are interested in, the more likely we are to be enlightened thinkers. This is borne out by the research of Stanford University psychologist Carol Dweck, whose work on growth mindsets has revolutionized psychology."

has anyone seen this episode of joe rogan? I'm not a believer of aliens.... but this is making me think otherwise
Maybe not aliens but there is technology that is way beyond anything we can fathom, they do say skunkworks is about 25-30yrs ahead of the technology we see today. Think of the new iPhone coming out now and the fact that someone 25-30yrs ago had something similar in their hand you understand how far they may be now. Imagine running about with an iPhone i11 in the 90’s
if you were running about with an iPhone in the 90s you would be deemed as an alien full stop. yeah I've heard that the technology available at the moment is just being drip fed to consumers to maximise profits..... shocker haha
That one with Bob Lazar was a great watch.
