It used to be a science fiction fantasy but I think by the time most goons are old, this kind of technology will be pretty effective: https://www.newscientist.com/article/2077140-mammal-brain-frozen-and-thawed-out-perfectly-for-first-time/ I hear it's like $100,000 to have your head frozen these days. Hopefully it will become a procedure covered by insurance or the price will become generally affordable. I don't know about the posters of GBS, but I, for one, want to freeze my head and hopefully wake up in some kind of robot body.

the only reason anyone would want to freeze your head is for science

I would rather seek pleasure in the now and gracefully accept death when it arrives. Immortality is a curse not a blessing.

Assuming we aren't consumed by barbarism, resource scarcity and climate change what exactly makes you think that people living 1000 years from now will want to bother resurrecting our Dark Ages rear end? Ah let's bring back some ignorant retard from the beginning of the second millennium so he can run his mouth about how everyone is a shade of brown now and doesn't believe in god and he thinks that's bullshit and he's about to tell you why.

The company that freezes people is a scam. Some guy that works there said they would have high school dropouts using hammers and chisels to break through vertebrae in the neck when the brochure claims they have surgeons perform the operation. The fluid they use is "secret" but it is basically saline + antifreeze. So they prey on sick and/or stupid people and get them to take out life insurance policies that are payable to the corporation upon their death. So I recommend this to all goons and their loved ones.

I misread the thread title and thought it said "How many goons want to freeze their wife's brains when they die?" and I realized that would be ridiculous because goons don't get married.

I won't die I'm going to have my brain put into a robot and have synthetic blood and chemics pumped throughout it to keep me alive. I will become an immortal machine.

as of right now getting electronic function back to dead cells is impossible. Not saying that wont happen but for this to really work you would need to be frozen alive. We would need changes to our right to die stuff in the country to make that viable.

I wouldn't do this unless someone hibernates in this way for a short period first, and is brought back and can give his subjective account of the experience. Imagine being in some kind of dreamlike constant pain status which seems eternal subjectively. Pure nightmare. gently caress that, let someone else take the hit first and, if I die before that happens, well, whatever, I don't wanna live forever anyway.

Yeah sure go for it. Also copy it to a computer and put that on the internet. Then when I wake up I can hang out with my now centuries old computer brain.
