But if they move to some random on-the-other-side-of-the-world country, wouldn't that affect their latency and lag performance? And if I remember correctly, latency was the first question everyone had in mind when they started the service.
I was expecting more enthusiasm from the denizens of slashdot.
I mean, this is exactly the kind of mindset we want people to have. Taking random stuff and putting it together to create fancy objects. Tinkering for the sake of tinkering. This guy is so much better than those artists who create some successful album then spend all their earnings on cars, girls and coke. If I was the guy launching it I would probably have thought a little more of the on-orbit-then-what part. But this is still very good news, and more people should be encouraged to do this.
Well I don't think it's a programmer's fault. Such checks could of course be easilly made, but the amount needed and the testing time for all of this might add to another day of developement. And as you know, god forbids another of day of developpement if we could be making millions by then.
I am most interested in the question asked in the summary: "Most surprising, perhaps, is that buyers rate the sellers on the site as relatively trustworthy, despite the fact that no real identities are used."
Maybe it's somekind of "team spirit" thing, like the Anonymous from 4chan, always looking for trouble, but at the same time very capable of working together towards a common goal.
Oh, you know how it is... No one will bother with a proposal for this, until it hits something and kills a couple of millions. THEN we will start thinking this out seriously. So yeah, let's just hope that the first one to hit won't cause too much damage, but enough to scare the shit out of people.

But then how did you blame the Zionist lobbies?
You guys are small game. I want mine to fire lasers everytime I glare at someone.
I know I shouldn't, but I kind of feel sorry for you for missing out on those sweet summer all-nighters playing video games with friends and family.
Stop being a filthy commi. Money gives you merits, duh.
It's good enough that the bot didn't see a hidden Bitcoin reference in this article...

Only if I recieve a souvenir from another planet.
But then again, if everyone was to demand a souvenir in return, it might be easier if NASA became a business that sold space souvenirs.
TSA-Bashing: aka the official sport of Slashdot denizens.
But as we all know, these bans are often for political reasons and the religious pretext for this case is probably just that, a pretext.

Some other country invented them first, they called it "Vuvuzela"
There is really no need for that part with the typos, please.
You fall off the face of the earth, obviously.
It's okay, there is nothing in space to crash into (except some planets of course, but that's details).
Why did I laugh so hard at this?
It proves that you'r not soft-headed... oh wait-
We'r talking about the rugby-like football here, not the one kindly called soccer on that other continent.
Reminds me of all that bullshit religious bigots serve me at any argument about aliens.. "If you believe in aliens why don't you believe in god?".
Because am not a fucking egocentric cunt who believes he is the center of the world, the universe, and the rest! This is why.
It's because children are blowing molester whistles... [/badumtish]
And Bridget from Guilty Gear... oh wait
I didn't RTFA, but DEUS sounds like the perfect name for this project.
