No, thankfully. We haven’t reached the SamuelA level until the solution to any given problem is obvious and trivial and trivially accomplished with AI and a swarm of self-replicating nanobots. Your guy is back in the H.G. Wells era going on about sun and planetary gears. Let him bring on self-replicating factories on all the planets of the galaxy and now we’ve got something.
He did not flounce, he just quietly folded. It has been more than three days since the last of his less than 3 dozen posts in that thread. True mark of a troll.
I stepped in and saved you’ll. He’s going to do polls now. Please stop by and vote, every vote counts. You can’t blame anyone but yourself if you don’t vote. Voting, it’s American!
I don’t care if that poster was trolling us with those threads or was sincerely asking about conversations he/she was having elsewhere. Either way, it was tiresome.
It’s pretty obvious he wasn’t a troll. He was engaged in a discussion at another board where he was trying to play SJW. He posted here to see what responses he should post there. You could tell how he kept demanding answers from us, probably for the questions he was being asked there. You’ll were just doing his homework so to speak. Not good behavior, but not a troll.
