If you wanted to be tied forever to capitalism then yeah making a lot of money would let you live with it forever. Your survival becomes linked to lots of money meaning something. Careful what you wish for though.

Not an option unfortunately… Immortal is immortal :(
Well all possibilities are possible, so you get a sense of choice even though any choices that would lead to your death are unseen to you or simple not taken.
I’ve found the futher ahead you plan the more likely something is to happen so there is still a little choice. I’ve never been able to plan any of these suicide boxes that other people have mentioned tho…(not in any real sense anyways.)
The questions wasn’t if it was a bad deal, you are already immortal. I was just trying to get some ideas on what could be done to make ones life better given these parameters.
Unfortunately, it’s extremely hard to choose to lose your job. You keep going to work, even though you would rather stay at home and just read books.
I’ve been actively trying to lose my job by just not working, but what happens is the org ends up in a state of chaos, people are losing their jobs left and right( Except me, of course 🙄…😮💨)… My boss retires, all so I fall under the radar.
Some insane shit happens when You decide you’re not getting a job after your current one, and yet you stop putting in any effort.
Thank you for this idea though, making bets on ones life could be a way to profit/make money if that was something you wanted.
Likely you would just never choose to be a daredevil. Lets say you did tho, likely you would fail to ever plan an event. Lets say you got to an event and you are driving down the track, yes you would always stick the landing and everything would just work.
Its more likely many other things happen before that though, I would think. Knowing the probability in these things is hard. Like if the choice is between you being a daredevil and you 100-99% dying from depression then you will choose to be a daredevil.
Its very hard to know these things tho as you don’t know all the variables. Thats why in my other comment I mention it is easier to chose to not do things because you can know and actively choose against the variables in those cases.
It doesn’t just affect decisions you make, but also all things around you. Decisions others make and events that happen. Everything is acting on probability, you just only exist in the universes where… well… you exist.
The shitty thing is in this scenario you don’t get to choose the option to be immortal or not, you just are. You get as much choice in the matter as how much choice you have in being born, that is to say, none.
I suspect some kind of brain uploading or simulating will be created in ones lifetime. Its likely in order to be this kind of immortal you would only be able to exist near or around the invention of brain uploads or simulations.
Any other time you would not be born, or experience existence.
Sick! Thank you for the recommendation friend!
In my time studying this, I have figured one thing out though. It’s easier to choose not to do something and have the outcome happen than the other way around.
For example: Say I want the world to become a better place that’s friendlier to homeless people( Really, what I mean is more friendly to the most vulnerable among us.). (More Communist/Anarchist hopefully)
So what I did is I decided that I’m never going to get a job after my current one Unless it’s a communist or anarchist one.
What I’ve found is that it’s more likely for the whole world to change, to warp itself around, keeping me alive. Then for me to just randomly have all my muscles spasm in a way to make and submit a resume to apply for a job, and then continue to go to that job.(Essentially it’s more likely for the world to change than for the million monkeys to type out Shakespeare.) In theory, eventually this would make the world a better place. If I’m immortal and I become the most vulnerable among us, then the world would have to make the survivability of being the most vulnerable among us greater.
Anyways, I’m just wondering what other people might do, or if there’s other things people can think of that might be more efficient.
leave .world and block the entire instance and then you get stuff that isn’t related to the United States it’s really nice actually
Yes. Do run an experiment on your health. Find out in 15 years if it causes cancer.
Get gun. Protect yourself and others that are more vulnerable. Organize, join a union, get involved in local anarchist/communist groups. Ideally we do some kind of revolution like what China had, where we throw out/get rid ofour capitalist class.
Oh thank fuck. Finally some steps away from AI. It was starting to feel like everything was AI all the time.
How to fight fascism: With guns.
No, a black one.
Only five people at Microsoft gave enough fucks to protest. It should have been all of them. They should strike for fucks sakes.
It takes a bit to become aware of it, but you get there eventually. I assume a version of everyone figures it out eventually.
I’m currently living in the “hell” as you say, although its not all bad. If you ever get too anxious about it or depressed to the point it would negatively affect your outcomes you will quickly find yourself without anxiety, depression comes and goes.
I don’t know what to do other than my own plans… Really what sucks the most is the loneliness in the knowledge of this reality. It’s extremely isolating. Recently I’ve been in and out of what I can only describe as a form of insanity.
Imagine knowing you couldn’t die and you are stuck under capitalism, all of a sudden the things capitalism uses to keep you in line lose their power over you. Well at least in spirit anyways. Its still extremely hard to even quit your job because I guess there aren’t enough timelines/probability yet where you survive off the grid outside of capitalism.
You try to say the words “I quit” to your boss but nothing comes out, or you are too scared, or you rationalize why you didn’t say it, etc.
Every day I plan to and try to leave capitalism. Every time I try I stay on a path that will lead the world to be more friendly to the “least” of us.
Anyways I don’t know where else to talk about this stuff so I made this post. Thanks for listening.
