Never got into DBZ, but for much of my friend group this is 1000% (dare I say 9001%) their death of the year.

Engaged again

I watched it. Nothing to post about. He made a few mistakes, but really it was one of his stronger days.

She's now on life support and her family is preparing for the worst.

Like Ken Clarke, Michael Heseltine, John Major or Rory Stewart?

Steve Lawrence is a hit for me: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-13170735/Steve-Lawrence-dies-88-Away-Little-Girl-singer-wed-Eydie-Gorme-pals-Frank-Sinatra-passes-Alzheimers-battle.html And Roger Guillemin was a hit for @ladyfiona: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/22/science/roger-guillemin-dead.html

Some QPR legends at Loftus Road tonight honouring Stan Bowles. Ron Abbott, Gerry Francis, Ian Gillard, Frank McLintock, Phil Nutt, Don Shanks and Dave Thomas (who is now blind) are all present according to QPR's Twitter. Photo of McLintock and Gerry Francis in the foreground. McLintock doesn't look too bad considering he's now 84. Phil Parkes and David Webb sent video tributes which are on Twitter and both look fine. Don Givens and Don Masson gave written tributes so might not be in such good health.

Death to all modern-day YouTube video essayists, I don't need some prick reading a seven-year-old Encyclopedia Dramatica article about something that happened 11 years ago for 3 hours.

And he won the race on being last remaining 1977 living laureate alive.

I was genuinely surprised and heartened to see how well he was looking given his health issues.

Jimmy van Eaton, drummer for Jerry Lew Lewis during his Sun Records days, has died at the age of 86

"Deathlist Forums - come for the dead celebs, stay for the philosophy discussions... " at the risk of a forever ban, I find the philosophy discussions more interesting. Perhaps we could continue some philosophy discussions in this thread, especially since celebs seem to stay alive right now? About drol's questions. Schrodinger's original formulation is NOT incorrect. The cat is indeed living and dead at the same time. Roger Penrose says so and this is a real paradox and NOT an incorrect formulation. Read my lips: this is a real paradox. About the infinite monkey theorem and what if we take the atoms in the universe as casual letters of a computer and time as infinite? What atoms? What universe? Neuroscientists agree that both time and the universe are brain constructs. In fact we all should know this. We have been brainwashed that there are atoms, not unlike tiny table tennis balls, and the universe is really "out there". However, physicists know that this is not so. For example, top neuroscientist Gerhard Roth says that the universe is a brain construct. What is more, top neuroscientist David Eagleman says that time is a brain construct. Einstein said that time is an illusion. Top physicist Paul Davies says that energy is a brain construct. Physicists say that energy cannot be spatiotemporally located. Einstein's formula says that energy is matter. Thus matter is not spatiotemporally located. In fact the brain is a brain construct (see e.g. Dr Ian McChilchrtist's excellent book named the Master and Emissary). What is space and time? Are they real? Are you real? Here's something nice for you drol, written by a top physicist. http://wwwp.fc.unesp.br/~malvezzi/downloads/Ensino/Disciplinas/IntrodMecQuant/textos/What's bad about this habit - David Mermin.pdf My understanding is that the top physicist Aharanov says that the universe has a final state that is pulling us and that no one can avoid his/hers destiny.
