But what if I scan a library book that I check out at a library? Seems to me, the only issue is the ease of making a copy, not the potential of retaining one.

Reply to Have deepfakes become so realistic that they can fool people into thinking they are genuine? [D] by [deleted]
So, deepfakes are getting quite good, but I would suggest the main reason those influencers were able to fool so many people isn't because of the realism of the deepfake, but because beauty filters are so common on Asian social media. It's not that many users didn't recognize that a filter was being used, but that the amount that the deepfake filter changed the influencer's face was unexpected.

I like to imagine that Open-chan is still flying today.

I mean, I'm happy to entertain the idea that you're aware of something about this situation that I am not, because your ass would have to hurt if you just pulled the ship of Theseus out of it. Though, it seems strange to say “It is one of our most prized possessions as we only have two-thirds of it left in the pot,” if they were constantly topping it back up.

We aren't talking about a recipe here, we're talking about a batch of soy sauce prepared 360 years ago, that is not only edible, but prized. How much else can you say that about? Honey can last longer, but humans don't make it. There are a few bottles of wine that old, selling for hundreds of thousands of dollars, and most of them aren't even drinkable. There's also some vinegar, but I don't know of much beyond that.

My point was that edible things tend to not last as long as relatively young countries. So it's notable when they do.

Rocks are old, sure, but things prepared by humans, centuries ago, for human consumption, and are still consumable, are not nearly as common as rocks.

Can we just skip some steps and collect worldwide taxes to help train a new government?
