@niplav@niplav.github.io I wouldn’t disagree with your characterization of people who’re interested in radical life extension, but their messaging, generally, seems to not mention “adding life to your years” at all. “Live to be 150” doesn’t sound all that great if you’re going to have 15 years of being in your 80s, so to speak.
@(frogorbits.com) “@niplav Seems like most of the (radical) life extension people are interested in adding years to their lives, but agnostic about adding life to their years. “Be old longer” doesn’t appeal to a lot of people.” -> I disagree, the people who i know that are interested in life extension look to me more engaged in life than the ones who are not (though that hinges on definitions of ”adding life to their years”). i agree that “adding life to your years” is underappreciated, though.

@adi@twtxt.net “I usually seen the opposite. Women are more interested in longevity and happy that studies show that they live more than men.” -> I probably could have been clearer: It seems to me that women are on average much less interested in life-extension (methods beyond usual health advice such as the old “exercise, eat vegetables”) than men. This might just be founder/sampling bias (life extension comes out of the relatively male dominated libertarian/techno-optimist cluster). Actually, maybe there’s just a variance thing here: median man cares less about his longevity than the median woman, but the variance for men is higher.

PeerTube v3 is now live with Live Streaming abilities
PeerTube has recently released version 3.0.0, which has added many things, including the ability to livestream. I’ve already updated by PeerTube instance to version 3 (it is linked from this RSS entry), but the link is just videos.lukesmith.xyz .
I’m not sure if I’ll end up immediately using the livestream ability, but it is certainly nice to have a non-YouTube option which is, in fact, self-hosted.
Aside from that, I strong recommend you … ⌘ Read more
Reading, after a certain age, diverts the mind too much from its creative pursuits.

Part of the wisdom of meditation lies in the following: There is baggage we all carry, the self, this belief we’re the center of it all, the author of (and subservient to) our own thoughts. How do I stop doing what makes me unhappy, if that’s “who I am”? But, in reality, I can abandon “who I am” and find new processes of living and new ways of thinking about the world.
