I remember my mother watching Jack LaLanne on our B&W TV as she did some ironing. (Early to mid 1960s). She didn't ever do any of his exercises. I think she was just ogling him.
I never went to gyms. I rode bikes, I built things, I made gardens, and I walked dogs. The dogs were big and needed lots of miles of walking. That all was good enough and I stayed healthy. I had a friend who seeing the joggers said "they treat their bodies like pets."
Now in my 70s, I still ride bikes. One is my 1973 Holdsworth Record, the other is an electric bike.
I bought a Garmin bike GPS for it. It is actually set up to operate with a cell phone to bring out all sorts of features. I decided not to do that. Now the GPS will track all sorts of things for training, altitude difference, set routes, and group rides. But the GPS mapping is what I really just needed. Well it shows me as an elite rider at 74 years old. Why? because my e-bike will go 20 mph on pedal assist even up hills. If I peddle hard I can achieve 28mph even though the bike is over 50 pounds. What a joke!
I think moderation in all things takes us farther in capable life span than the obsession for immortality. Those who think they will achieve that immortality will still get hit by a bus, die in a robbery, fall out of the sky in a plane, or succumb to some designer bio-weapon plague. Those that think they will have their consciousness uploaded in silicon chips will really have died already and the program of the download of their brain will, at best, be an interactive recording only to be lost when someone trips over the power cord or the machine malfunctions
I could hear Jack’s peppy voice panting from yet one more quick jog in place. lol
Those creepy rich guys take my head to the “Fantastic Voyage” and then boom “ The Andromida Strain” kicks in. These guys are like a the old goat gland doctor on Wolfman Jack’s commercials.
And is it all for naught?
Jan 6 th prisoner shot dead just days after pardon.
C’est la vie say the old folks. Goes to show you never can tell.
We should not allow people who put all that junk in their body be buried when they die. The contamination to the soil! Somebody call Greta.
I love your stuff. Makes a person think long and hard. 👍👍
CMU researchers, in collaboration with NVIDIA, present ASAP, a two-stage framework for humanoid robot agility. It pre-trains motion policies on human data, then refines them with real-world corrections using a delta action model, which adjusts for simulation mismatches.
Abstract— Humanoid robots hold the potential for unparalleled versatility for performing human-like, whole-body skills.However, achieving agile and coordinated whole-body motionsremains a significant challenge due to the dynamics mismatchbetween simulation and the real world. Existing approaches,such as system identification (SysID) and domain randomization(DR) methods, often rely on labor-intensive parameter tuningor result in overly conservative policies that sacrifice agility.In this paper, we present ASAP
ASAP (Aligning Simulation and RealPhysics), a two-stage framework designed to tackle the dynamicsmismatch and enable agile humanoid whole-body skills. In thefirst stage, we pre-train motion tracking policies in simulationusing retargeted human motion data. In the second stage, wedeploy the policies in the real world and collect real-world data
The cool thing about having you modeled, Citizen, is knowing just how much of what to put into the water or the eggs or your prescriptions or your media channels to achieve some end for you by the supreme being (lower case, ie "Nanny State," Antichrist, or whatever you wish to call it). h/t Marshall McLuhan.
Once again, the distinctiveness of true biblical belief (+trust=faith) separates itself from the surrounding culture.... No matter the century. The apostle Paul said it best, "For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come."
..... That said, it's still a sobering thought knowing that the souls of men will soon be traded alongside every other commodity in the markets... Revelation 18:13.
This article is great but the future you describe creeps me out.. the familial vampiric activity in particular, plus others. I’ll stick with my normal healthy life of Scripture, coffee, biscotti and Jesus 😉💕

"What happened to grandma?!"
"It was an accident, dad! I tripped."
"they treat their bodies like pets" love it...funny and yet poetic.

These Elitest are SOUL REAVERS!

The best possible outcome these fools could hope for would be death. While still an actual human.
