genetic engineering? ai singularity perhaps? How do you intend to live forever?

Fuck forever, just let my upcoming prostate biopsy be negative. I’m retiring and I have shit to do that doesn’t involve sitting in front of the TV wearing a diaper.
good luck, friend. this internet stranger will be keeping you in mind. nobody deserves some of the shit life dishes out, i sincerely hope this goes well for you.
No plans. I die like a real man.
I’m gonna die and like it.
I don’t even think I wanna wake up tomorrow.
Who wants. To live. Forever?
Who dares. To love. Forever?
Yes, that’s my plan too, to behead another highlander.
But what if the eternal prize is just a scratchcard or a McDonalds coupon?There’s no chance for us
Forever? Perhaps not, until I clean up my gaming/reading/watching backlog? Perhaps.
That might as mean forever as well though.
I have “kidnapped” a small child and am brainwashing them to think like me.
they will be me, essentially.
one day they will do the same, and “I” will live on for eternity.
I won’t
I’ll try to eat healthy and exercise, but besides that I’m not planning on doing anything.
Why would anyone want this?
Just fly a rocket into a stable orbit near a black hole and wait until the time dilation causes 1000s of years to pass on earth, then go back and hope someone has figured it out.
You only die when the last person forgets your name. So I’m going to be remembered forever, all books in history should have a dedicated page about me.
Oh no.
Enjoy!
I don’t intend to live forever, that sounds rough as hell.
Depends on what kind of forever. If it’s truly forever and there’s nothing you can do about it, that sounds like hell (imagine being the only thing floating in the universe after the heat death!) but if you can decide after 200, 500, 1000 years you’ve had enough, it really sounds like a pretty sweet deal.
The sheer anger and hatred of wanting to see certain, unnamed people(s) die before I do. Let the rage keep me going in order to hopefully outlive some people. Thankfully a lot of those people are either currently either middle aged to elderly or just older than me.
But that’s if nuclear war doesn’t happen because I’m in an area that will hopefully be wiped off the map and I’ll hopefully just be dust.
Return question: If you do have a plan to live forever, do you have a plan B how to end it, when (not if) it becomes unbearable?
Or when (not if) you’ve lost the last shard of your sanity?i value life more the longer i exist, both mine and others, not less.
If eternity is all time, and all the time I have is 80 or so years (hopefully), then that is eternity, for me. I’ll already live “forever”.
my background in biochemistry makes me think it’s almost guaranteed to be impossible, so i don’t worry about it.
however, in hypothetical case it isn’t, i’d argue that it would be proper to destroy this technology in all cases along with inventors, because it would be horridly expensive initially, and first people to get it would be people like peter thiel and larry ellison. there was a recording where putin and xi admitted that they are also interested. then what you’ll get would be class of immortal oligarchs. planck once said, progress in physics happens one funeral at a time, it’s really more general than just physics, and you can say goodbye to any progress from that point on
Part of rejuvenation is rejuvenating brain to keep its youthful plasticity.
thiel isn’t funding unlicensed drug trials for longevity/immortality just so that he’ll become more progressive in the process
with 200, 300 year old oligarchs values they grew up with are gonna stay influential much longer
For the record, i just intend to outlive my enemies
