Whether it's 4,000 years or until the universe collapses upon itself (or however it's going to end), we are all still going to die.

Plus, even if the stuff of this article becomes reality, you'd still have to worry constantly about physical obliteration. If you get nuked or otherwise totally vaporized, there is no way science will ever be able to bring you back. And even if they somehow discovered a way to create a "back-up you" to guard against physical obliteration of the original, the back-up would likewise be at risk of physical obliteration.

There is no way out of death. Ever. Period.

Still, given a choice, I'll go for the latter option.

When does the universe end?

A few trillion years from now?

I wouldn't mind living that long.

I read something in in a science years about stopping ageing, sooner or later it said the odds would catch up with you,
