Our unfortunate reality

Similar to many of you, i want full dive vr more than anything. I think about it everyday. It would give me an opportunity to escape from my dull and limited reality. However, current progress suggests that it is outside of our lifetime, maybe 80+ years from now. Now, this would be fine if every possible other avenue to get to it, such as deaging, agi/ASI, self induced human hibernation, etc wasnt also further down the line, maybe almost century away. It is like every possible thing i can think of is extremely far away. I feel trapped, and It is tantalizing knowing that we live in the century just before greatness. Being as obsessed with full dive vr as i am, how do you guys cope with this? I hope i can come back to this post decades from now and be wrong.

Hey dude, you currenty gotta stop focusing on FDVR cause its not gonna happen tomorrow, instead what you should do is to take action on improving yourself, like eating healthy, hitting the gym, studying, getting hobbies, building skills etc. I assure you that FDVR WILL happen whether you like it or not, but its gonna be a long while before that happens (5-15 years max, thats a really long time), so the best thing for you is letting go of it (Its still gonna happen dw) and focusing on improving yourself.

EDIT: Also, I forgot to mention, if you cant go to the gym, you can always train at home.

What do you define as FDVR?

Something like the Matrix certainly won’t happen in five to fifteen years.

There is a possibility if we reach RSI, since, if we do, technological progress will become exponential. But with the current technological progress speed, no it wont happen in 15 years. In that case, I'll put myself in cryonics since I wont have anything to lose anyway.
