It will be very nice to have a comprehensive list of possible so called "disruptive inventions" or "closing inventions" i.e. such inventions that destroys industries and can do a lot of harm to corporations or states.
as kickstart, order means nothing:
- antigravity
- neutrino beam communications
- force shield
- electricity accumulator with decent power density (orders of magnitude larger than current lithium crap) and reliability
- FTL travel
- high-efficiency fuel powered electricity generator without moving parts
- atomic level 3D printer/copier
- inertial mass control
- simple consumer-grade fuel converter (organic compounds to gas/diesel)
- plants growth speed accelerator
- useable way of making building materials (blocks/bricks) from any soil. ....
Please continue.
biological immortality
Aging is caused by so many factors, that it will be centuries before we can even approach this, provided other things don't get in the way.
Yes, but there is main cause of aging - telomeres contraction. I don't think it could not be resolved, so there is clearly a way to do something about it. If only biologists and medics really wanted to solve that problem instead of making money on useless drugs that bring trillions to BigPharma.
Why would they want you to live longer? They want you dead
This all is not about "them". It's about us.
While you continue to care what "they" want or don't want for us, you will never came anywhere.
Why do you care what they want or don't want for us? The question is what we want, not them. They are just a one of many problems that should be resolved, nothing more.
Fuck "them". Fuck them everywhere and anytime. It's the only real method of finding way out.
Cancer cells are effectively immortal, but they are usually killed off by your own immune system.
It's going to take untold billions and decades upon decades.
No, they are not. They just broken so divide uncontrolled. It's not Deadpool comics.
That billions now spent on total shit for decades.
a) Cause implies motion...suggested facts tempt one to hold onto, while ignoring to be (life) moved (inception towards death).
b) Being implies in-between inception and death...few suggest age as an "indefinite period" to tempt many to reason against each other about the definition (definite; affixed) of age, which in return tempts them to ignore being within motion.
c) Age/aetas/aevum/aiw - "life force" implies force (motion) generating life (matter).
I think that's what the mRNA therapy was about. I believe they know how, but need to perfect the delivery platform. Doesn't do much good if the delivery platform can cause cancer and kill you in 5 years
I think you are right, and they also want to cure viruses, bioengineer things including people against their will, and ensure that a breaktrhrough in longevity can't work by creating genetic causes of early death in humans.
mRNA technology in a nutshell is not what could be a permanent solution. Basically, it is injecting messenger RNA to force body to produce one or another substance on its own. It does not fix real cause, it is just sophisticated way of regular treatment with medicines.
What is closer to real solution is retroviruses for example. We already have noticeable part of DNA brought with retroviruses in the past. And it is permanent (at least for a few generations). Unlike mRNA that just force cells to produce some substance, retrovirus install some part of its DNA into human genome, so changing us one way or another. Mostly it is just useless piece of code, but theoretically it could be some code that fix problem with telomeres.
Both are genetic therapy, but fundamentally different.
So, even if vaccinaors tried to resolve aging problem in such brutal and dangerous way, they choose a wrong tool.
And I definitely would not be enthusiastic if same bastards would had choose retrovirus or some other way. They know nearly nothing about how all that DNA thing work in living beings, and looks like they don't really want to. They are like arrogant and ignorant junior programmer students who wrote their first "Hello world" which is still buggy, but already rushing to rewrite OS kernel or some CAD software randomly changing strings of code without any understanding what the fuck they are doing in stupid hope that some random change will give them desired result.
Only within zoe (animation) can bio (life) be mortal...logic implies mortals fighting each other about what bio means, while ignoring what zoe does.
Wouldn't it become too boring after few hundreds of years?
Highlander, there can be only one!
:)
Really it always wondered me why exactly "there can be only one" in that franchise, except bringing conflict for entertainment. :)
If one were to be immortal; then why would one keep measuring time? Furthermore...what happens if a mortal resists keeping measure of time?
