"Scientists injected their ER-100 drug into the eye of a patient"

Think I'll wait for the pill for on this one.

Honestly? If it legitimately did de-age people I doubt this would be that big a sticking point.

It's a glaucoma treatment not an age elixir. I'm not sure more than 10% of comments read the extremely short article.

[–] Bixcut@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago

will still be a pointy stick tho

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 9 hours ago

Don’t expect a pill to take you back to 21 any time soon. This trial is still in its beginning stages, and cellular reprogramming led to cancerous cells forming in some early research in mice. Plus, the company’s co-founder, Harvard geneticist David Sinclair, has a history of overhyping his longevity treatments.

Sooo… make your cells younger, and also get cancer?

Lisa would know the only way for her to get braces is for the working class to revolt.

It's not 1989 anymore, you can't support a house and a family of five on a single working man's salary. (Nuclear technician with 35 years experience, maybe..)

I've seen Altered Carbon. No thanks.

(Haven't read it though)

I wonder if my insurance considers "not being immortal" to be a preexisting condition 🤔

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 points 9 hours ago

different kinds of immortality. immortality without regenerative abilities, like with many shows/movies, basically you will be in constant pain(like with orpheus in sandman, he had immortality but had no ability regenerate.

[–] gandalf_der_12te@feddit.org 4 points 15 hours ago

otherwise wait for 20 years until cheap generics arrive

I'm excited for the possibilities. It wont be equitably used in this capitalistic hellscape, but it won't always be like this.

There is also some medication they have been studying that mimics the effect of exercise that is intriguing. Last I heard though it caused tumours so I assume that is a hard problem to crack.

Because the rich will live and the poor will die.

No it's not, there have been several (successful) already.
