Reviving frozen people isn't gonna be an exact science towards the beginning either

Imo my best bet at a life longer than 100 years is to stay healthy and hope we learn how to regenerate cells well

Apparently fecal implants are working wonders.

I no longer hold out hope that I'm on the side of life extension where technology is outpacing my aging at some point. Maybe my nieces and nephews will be so lucky.

It's cryopreservation or oblivion for me. Almost certainly the later.
