Dont sleep on the idea that governments have technology that is decades ahead of what the public knows about. Therefore, these stories for public consumption, show that they are already doing this stuff. (Sorry if someone has already made this point - I didnt read the entire thread :0)

Another step closer to artificial blood


Artificial blood stored as a powder could one day revolutionize emergency medicine and provide trauma victims a better chance of survival.

Researchers have created an artificial red blood cell that effectively picks up oxygen in the lungs and delivers it to tissues throughout the body.

This artificial blood can be freeze-dried, making it easier for combat medics and paramedics to keep on hand for emergencies, said senior researcher Dr. Allan Doctor. He is a critical care specialist at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis.

“It’s a dried powder that looks like paprika, basically,” Doctor said. “It can be stored in an IV plastic bag that a medic would carry, either in their ambulance or in a backpack, for a year or more. When they need to use it, they spike the bag with sterile water, mix it, and it’s ready to inject right then and there.”

The artificial blood cell, which is about one-fiftieth the size of a normal red blood cell, is made from purified human hemoglobin proteins that have been coated with a synthetic polymer, Doctor said. Hemoglobin is the component inside red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout the body.

Lost and found: Japan tags dementia sufferers with barcodes
AFPDecember 8, 2016

A Japanese city has introduced a novel way to keep track of senior citizens with dementia who are prone to getting lost -- tagging their fingers and toes with scan-able barcodes.

A company in Iruma, north of Tokyo, developed tiny nail stickers, each of which carries a unique identity number to help concerned families find missing loved ones, according to the city's social welfare office.

The adhesive QR-coded seals for nails -- part of a free service launched this month and a first in Japan -- measure just one centimetre (0.4 inches) in size.

"Being able to attach the seals on nails is a great advantage," a city worker told AFP.

"There are already ID stickers for clothes or shoes but dementia patients are not always wearing those items."

Realdoll builds artificially intelligent sex robots with programmable personalities
Sex doll manufacturer Realdoll is dipping its toe (and we don't want to know which other body parts) into the world of artificial intelligence and robotics with a forthcoming robot sex assistant that promises to form a "real bond" with its, erm, users.

The new system is made up of several components, which will roll out over the course of this year and next. It will begin with the Harmony AI app, scheduled for release on April 15, followed by the company's "first robotic head systems," set to launch by the end of the year. A virtual reality platform will ship sometime in 2018.

It's not going to be cheap, mind you: the head alone will set you back $10,000. No pun intended.

Elon Musk on mission to link human brains with computers in four years: report

Elon Musk on mission to link human brains with computers in four years: report
n">Tesla Inc (TSLA.O) founder and Chief Executive Elon Musk said his latest company Neuralink Corp is working to link the human brain with a machine interface by creating micron-sized devices.

Neuralink is aiming to bring to the market a product that helps with certain severe brain injuries due to stroke, cancer lesion etc, in about four years, Musk said in an interview with website Wait But Why.

"If I were to communicate a concept to you, you would essentially engage in consensual telepathy," Musk said in the interview published on Thursday. bit.ly/2oWJcMw

AI implants will allow us to control our homes with our thoughts within 20 years, government report claims

15 October 2017 • 12:01a


Artificially intelligent nano-machines will be injected into humans within 20 years to repair and enhance muscles, cells and bone, a senior inventor at IBM has forecast.

John McNamara, who works at IBM Hursley Innovation Centre, in Hampshire, submitted evidence to the House of Lords Artificial Intelligence Committee, which is considering the economic, ethical and social implications of AI.

Mr McNamara said that within just two decades, technology may have advanced so much that humans and machines are effectively ‘melded’ together, allowing for huge leaps forward in human consciousness and cognition.

One thing worth remembering is if the world is thrown into darkness, then the evil ones are in the dark also.

I expect to be Raptured out before the tribulation
and then the anti-christ will use the technology for his purposes.

It is scary but a sobering reminder that we need to look to Christ for support and comfort.

BTW, I have made several preparations in case the rapture lingers. :oldthumbsup:
I sometimes browse other forums and came across this thread concerning a "rapture will".
Pretty innovative me thinks.........

Prepare A 'Rapture Will'

Prepare A 'Rapture Will'

Since I firmly believe that there will be a rapture (sooner rather than later) of all faithful Christians by Jesus Christ taking all of his believers up into heaven just before mankind's final judgment it would be wise to prepare a 'rapture will'. A Rapture Will is where, in the event of the rapture, all of my possessions will be legally bequeath to all of my family, friends, and business associates of my choice who still don't believe in Jesus Christ and will be left behind after Jesus Christ raptures up his church into heaven.

I am sure some talented christian lawyer could assemble such a document and it will have the added benefit of alerting unbelievers, especially those mentioned in the rapture will, of the impending calamity coming to all unbelievers when they are left behind after the rapture. It would be a great way to spread ones faith and belief in Jesus Christ when an unbeliever is handed a copy of a Christian’s 'rapture will' that entitles them to a share of property that the believer in Jesus Christ will invariable leave behind after the rapture has taken place.

Additionally, you can make a 'rapture will' video that includes a testimonial of your faith in Jesus Christ (and a warning about the antichrist and the mark of the beast) so all those who are left behind are not driven to despair as there is always hope and salvation in Jesus Christ!

If you are an unbeliever, and having read this are worried of being left behind when Jesus Christ comes for his church just before mankind’s final judgment, then just believe in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ (God become man) and then get baptized. It's that simple! Then make out your own 'rapture will' and hand it to another unbeliever that you know to alert them to their horrific fate of being left behind after the 'rapture retrieval' by Jesus Christ!

Geeez. Time for a few rum and cokes! Did I just read what I thought I did? Rapture will.

Creative to say the least. I'll admit that much. (Not laughing at you BTW, just the idea)--- me thinks a person has to be deemed missing something like 7 years to be considered legally missing or dead. By then it will be all over.

Elon Musk's Neuralink Brain Chip Will Soon Allow Users to Take Charge of Moods and Emotions
Elon Musk's Neuralink currently develops a new feature on their brain chip that will enable humans to go forth and choose the mood by balancing off a person's hormone levels.

The secret project mentioned by Musk teased an update that will provide new feats for the company. He stated that an event on August 28, 2020, will thoroughly explain what the Tech CEO pertains.

The American Tech Company founded by Musk, Neuralink, is working on their current project, the brain-implanted chip, that is capable of controlling a human's emotion and mood by emitting waves that are beyond the usual or natural frequency and amplitude.
