You write like a typical human-hating leftist - anthropomorphizing the planet, using "we" to express your opinion, bringing up irrelevant food-based arguments, etc.
Inadequate food quantity is a political problem.
What problem does extending human lifespans solve?
It lets me live long enough that you'll go away and stop making the world a worse place.
Paper is a rather poor choice. Even if we limit ourselves to carbon based materials, we can choose a plastic that's stable, tough, waterproof, and resistant to mild chemicals.
Very inefficient storage format. Storing a single book would exceed the diameter of the universe, and each extra bit would double its length. Remember, the minimum increment would be one atomic diameter, about 1 Angstrom.
Mute the music. Re-record commentary if it was damaged by muting the music, or remove the music in a more sophisticated fashion.
If it's not worth that much effort, then it's not that valuable, is it?
Sorry, microchips (transistors) don't work when the sizes are too large, and steel is not a semiconductor. Phonographs, fine. Electron tubes, fine, if you can maintain a vacuum over millennia. Generators/alternators, probably. Batteries, probably not.
Some things are suitable for reference examples, others aren't. At some fairly primitive point examples must lead to symbols and combinations of symbols - words and then sentences until a language is developed. Complex and abstract things require language; reference examples help but they can't be the only method.
JPEGs and bitmaps can be imbedded in html. Going the other way, many programs (photoshop, gimp, etc.) allow text to be put into an image. Copy an image onto a larger blank canvas, type text into the remaining blank area. Alas, it's tedious.
Teaching and passing on knowledge between generations is the way to do this.
That's called oral history, which is how ghost stories told to scare children into behaving became "great" religions. It's not enough; archival storage is needed.
Fermat's Last Theorem (which predated Fermat) has been a tempting challenge for many mathematicians for a long, long time. Many competent people had chewed away at it, expanding number theory and clearing the path for Wiles' wonderful work. Had Wiles not done it, someone else would have, eventually. In and of itself, Fermat's Last Theorem is generally considered to be a dead end - it doesn't lead to anything else of importance.
Johnson is a fool who will be repeatedly suckered by the same trick. He lives in a fantasyland, and his brain damage is too great for him ever to escape.
There are no "tax-evading" skills here. When you have a capital loss, Form 1040 Schedule D allows you to carry it forward and use it against future capital gains. It's very common standard procedure, which nearly everyone who's had net stock market losses in a year has used. Not only are you permitted to do this, it would be dishonest and probably illegal to do otherwise, because you'd be perjuring yourself on an income tax form.

I've always thought that was BS, and now you've provoked me to find a demonstration that you're wrong.

Mod parent up. There are many things that need to be done to allow significant maximum age extension.

Clay can be formed in molds, and reproduced by the tens of thousands, like bathroom tile.
No. Algebra involves abstraction.
Besides which, 4 candy bars for a dollar may represent a volume discount.

That's what AI is for.
Read the wikipedia article on zero. The claim that zero in any sense originated with Muslims is false.
Les Paul was not a Middle Ages Muslim.
How long do you think microfilm/microfiche is going to remain available as a writable technology?
Pencil wears off. If you want to preserve pencil marks, spray with an archival clear coating.

Some of the tablets that remain from ancient times are merchants' lists of trade goods. That's only slightly less common than a shopping list.
Someone who considers clay tablets durable has never dropped one on concrete.
Some of Shakespeare's works don't exist in original form or copies from original form, but were recreated from actor's memories.

As opposed to CNN, NBC, MSNBC, ABC, CNBC, Bloomberg, et alii, where whole-cloth lies are stated as facts.

Threatening rape victims.
Accessory before and after the fact to murder
Treason
That merely scratches the surface of Clinton's evil. Trump has been a net benefit to the world, and probably will be a net benefit as President.

The lower level aides got immunity. That's no excuse for destroying the evidence they provided, in fact that's contrary to the purpose of immunity.
