I guess if he remembers the conversation he knows it’s not true. If he doesn’t remember the conversation, you get more amusement next time you tell him.
How does he know it’s not true? The copy is supposed to remember it
Hmmm, ok I misread it. I was thinking the duplicate had already been printed before the conversation started, and they were waiting to destroy the original. But he does say the duplicate has been printed "complete with memory of this conversation".
To be fair, all you’d have to do is snap your fingers or dab after the conversation and you could tell that it fake. To tell it it’s real, you need a code word, for example: “alley-oop.” If you travel back to your past self, if someone needs to prove they’re in a time loop, or here. If you respond with “alley-oop,” you know it’s fake. If you don’t, you know it was real (as long as you now choose a random word that you swear to use in uncertain circumstances)
