Not sure we need to "cure" aging...

[-] IAmLamp@fedia.io 33 points 6 months ago

Could someone get to work on curing stupid first? Then we can work on the aging part.

Everyone so concerned about artificial intelligence that they forgot natural stupidity is still the biggest unsolved issue.

If we can live just as long as we do now but in better health it would be amazing.

Sir/Madame Trebuchet, your cousins of the weighted blade are already a tried & true solution to aristocrat aging.

Also, I think I just found the name for my new anarcho metal band — if you're available to fill in on timpani/kettle drum, et al.

Plenty of underfunded extremely disabling illnesses to spend money on instead of “curing” aging to fulfill rich able bodied people’s fantasies.

Idk, I'm not rich and id like to stop getting older. Hell, if I could just stay my current age and then die of cancer in 30 years, that'd be great.

Do you think it is not a widespread or harmful condition?
