Cool to see Roman present his own stuff, but a lot of what Mr. Regular presents is already material Roman wrote!

I kind of wish Mr. Regular presented this but whatever, I am sure Roman will get his sea-legs soon. Good shit none the less.

No they weren’t. The API was fine in every region outside of Us-East-1. There is a reason why there’s more than one region, because of this.

Cross Region Replication is key S3 feature. It is kind of foolish to run with out it. 

In before ‘St. Pepsi was better.’

The first one I remember was on the Gears Of War Trailer back in like fall of ‘06.

It sort of bothers me that these guys use Desert Camo. What tactical advantage does that give them in this environment? Are they just trying to be cool like REAL SOLDIERS? Don’t get me wrong, it’s good to have a militarized but very small unit of a local police force for special situations like this, especially if it…
