Immortality using technology - Yes or no?

[Aeluron Lightsong]

No. I would not be party to such civilization ending foolishness.

End civilization it does not.

Since the world is an ever-changing environment (and since the definition of the "world", the realm where we exist, is changing decade by decade, in the sense that we'll eventually be able to live on other planets, in other planetary systems, in other galaxies, perhaps even in other universes), I'd have to go with yes. I'm pretty sure it'd never get boring, except for a couple of trillion years in at which point there wouldn't be anything macroscopic to interact with, but I'm assuming it's a given that I wouldn't exist either at that point.

Step 1: Achieve Immortality
Step 2: Live through ages of amazing technological advancement, see other worlds/dimensions, the rise and fall of empires.

I would jump with both hands for an opportunity like that. Outliving people would not really even bother me.

Go up a level. Proteins, cells, and all the million and one chemical compounds in your body do degrade and get used up and then get pissed or shitted out.

Not all cells are replaced.

And its not the atoms getting old.

Already done it and I am paying the price, immortality would let me move on from it.

Though I cant quite understand what you are goin through, yet, i can say that I am not a fan of death myself. Cutting dead people feels so... violating.

Hell yes. I want to see what happens to our species after I go.
