[870.66 --> 877.66] And our ISPs are no less evil than the American ISPs, so they're gonna look at what worked down there, |
[877.66 --> 882.66] and they're gonna push real hard to have it, you know, work up here, and they're gonna build case studies, |
[882.66 --> 886.66] and they're gonna lobby our politicians and go, oh, well, look how successful this was. |
[886.66 --> 892.66] It, you know, did this for the economy because we're able to charge this much more to, to whatever else. So... |
[892.66 --> 901.66] What a childish thing to do. We're just gonna stop building any more, better infrastructure until, you know, we get... |
[901.66 --> 905.66] They haven't, they haven't said that it has to be a favorable ruling. |
[905.66 --> 909.66] They've just said that they are gonna reevaluate their plans once there's a ruling, |
[909.66 --> 913.66] but I think we all kind of know how this is, how this is gonna play out. |
[913.66 --> 922.66] Got people asking, where's Luke? Luke is recording a video right now, so as soon as he's done, |
[922.66 --> 928.66] he's gonna jump up here and join me and then boot Slenderman out of his spot. |
[928.66 --> 935.66] Alright, so this is, uh, this is a really unfortunate little piece of news. |
[935.66 --> 942.66] This was posted by Victoria's Secret on the forum, and it is unusual for large companies like NVIDIA |
[942.66 --> 950.66] to come out and speak, speak publicly, to post on their blog about, you know, something like an ongoing lawsuit. |
[950.66 --> 954.66] But, uh, this is, this is really important, not because of... |
[954.66 --> 956.66] Really? |
[956.66 --> 961.66] I straight up don't understand where that's coming from. |
[961.66 --> 963.66] That is... |
[963.66 --> 966.66] Oh, I know what it is. |
[966.66 --> 970.66] That's, uh, that's a screen grab of the last thing that I was looking at. |
[970.66 --> 972.66] It's not updating anymore. |
[972.66 --> 973.66] I see. |
[973.66 --> 974.66] Okay. |
[974.66 --> 976.66] Well, you guys will just have to take my word for it. |
[976.66 --> 980.66] It's on NVIDIA's blog, and, uh, basically, I'm gonna kinda run through the whole thing here, |
[980.66 --> 986.66] because it's super, it's super crappy, and Samsung is behaving like a spoiled child about this. |
[986.66 --> 991.66] So they basically said, look, we filed patent lawsuits two months ago against Samsung and Qualcomm, |
[991.66 --> 995.66] alleging that they've used our patented GPU technology without proper compensation to us. |
[995.66 --> 999.66] When we filed those suits, we fully expected to be sued in response. |
[999.66 --> 1001.66] It's a predictable tactic. |
[1001.66 --> 1005.66] So we weren't surprised when earlier this week Samsung filed the lawsuit against us, |
[1005.66 --> 1007.66] adding in for good measure Velocity Micro. |
[1007.66 --> 1010.66] I don't know if you guys are familiar with Velocity Micro. |
[1010.66 --> 1017.66] If you don't follow the boutique system builder space, you know, the Falcon Northwest and, uh, you know, |
[1017.66 --> 1021.66] Puget Systems guys of the world, you might never have heard of Velocity Micro, |
[1021.66 --> 1025.66] but they're a pretty small company. |
[1025.66 --> 1026.66] Okay? |
[1026.66 --> 1030.66] They're not, like, a gigantic mega-corporation like a, like a Dell, |
[1030.66 --> 1034.66] where there could be some kind of, you know, collusion between Dell and NVIDIA |
[1034.66 --> 1039.66] to allegedly break some Samsung patent or something. |
[1039.66 --> 1042.66] They're just, they're just a system integrator, very similar to, |
[1042.66 --> 1049.66] this could have just as easily happened to any other shop that builds custom gaming rigs |
[1049.66 --> 1050.66] and sells them on their website. |
[1050.66 --> 1056.66] So, they included Velocity Micro, a small customer based in Virginia. |
[1056.66 --> 1058.66] So their action focuses on eight patents. |
[1058.66 --> 1060.66] NVIDIA is alleged to have violated six. |
[1060.66 --> 1065.66] And included in the, in the filing is a false advertising claim against NVIDIA, |
[1065.66 --> 1069.66] um, that the statement about the Shield tablet with the Tegra K1 processor |
[1069.66 --> 1071.66] is the world's fastest mobile processor. |
[1071.66 --> 1073.66] They're saying it's false and misleading. |
[1073.66 --> 1075.66] So NVIDIA goes and, like, straight up puts, |
[1075.66 --> 1079.66] here's our benchmarks against the Exynos 5433 that's in the Note 4. |
[1079.66 --> 1081.66] Yeah, you're not faster. |
[1081.66 --> 1086.66] Yes, NVIDIA did include a lot of gaming focused benchmarks. |
[1086.66 --> 1088.66] So, are they spinning things a little bit? |
[1088.66 --> 1090.66] Uh, yes. |
[1090.66 --> 1094.66] But, they also included some non-gaming focused benchmarks. |
[1094.66 --> 1098.66] And it looks like if you were to just sort of, you know, fire a shotgun, |
[1098.66 --> 1104.66] and if you hit sort of, you know, the dozen or 15 or so benchmarks that they ran, |
[1104.66 --> 1107.66] you would hit more that NVIDIA wins than that Samsung wins. |
[1107.66 --> 1110.66] And, uh, pretty much, here we go. |
[1110.66 --> 1112.66] It's unfortunate that Samsung sued Velocity. |
[1112.66 --> 1113.66] This isn't Velocity's fight. |
[1113.66 --> 1119.66] This is, this is just extremely, this is just extremely crappy of Velocity. |
[1119.66 --> 1123.66] And this isn't something that, um, that NVIDIA's put in their article, |
[1123.66 --> 1128.66] but it is something that I've seen in some of the articles about NVIDIA's blog post. |
[1128.66 --> 1134.66] But, you know, we gotta consider when we shop a lot of different things that often we don't. |
[1134.66 --> 1135.66] We tend to look at a spec sheet. |
[1135.66 --> 1137.66] We tend to look at a benchmark score. |
[1137.66 --> 1139.66] And we tend to look at a price. |
[1139.66 --> 1143.66] And then we go ahead and we make a purchasing decision. |
[1143.66 --> 1148.66] But, I mean, no one, I shouldn't say no one. |
[1148.66 --> 1154.66] I think a lot of us are frustrated at times with the way that Apple behaves with respect to its patents. |
[1154.66 --> 1158.66] But, is Samsung really being any less vindictive? |
[1158.66 --> 1161.66] And it's one thing if they're gonna go after another big boy. |
[1161.66 --> 1164.66] You know, if they're gonna go after an Apple or an NVIDIA. |
[1164.66 --> 1168.66] But it's a whole other one if they bring in a little company like Velocity |
[1168.66 --> 1171.66] that didn't do anything other than put NVIDIA graphics cards in their systems. |
[1171.66 --> 1175.66] Um, just because, and this is NVIDIA's theory, this is allegedly, |
[1175.66 --> 1180.66] just because Virginia tends to process these filings extremely quickly |
[1180.66 --> 1183.66] and Velocity had the bad luck to be located in Virginia. |
[1183.66 --> 1189.66] So, just something to, something to consider. |
[1189.66 --> 1192.66] Oh, there, there is an open letter to the public from Randy Copeland, |
[1192.66 --> 1194.66] the CEO of Velocity Micro, where he basically says, |
[1194.66 --> 1199.66] look, we know nothing about the previous issues between Samsung and NVIDIA, |
[1199.66 --> 1200.66] and we don't care. |
[1200.66 --> 1204.66] You know, his response really had a very, he had a very, |
[1204.66 --> 1206.66] it had a very bitter tone to it. |
[1206.66 --> 1211.66] And he basically said, we'll have to use company resources to defend ourselves from Samsung, |
[1211.66 --> 1214.66] an obviously mismatched opponent. |
[1214.66 --> 1218.66] And he says, if this is how Samsung operates, we want no part of it, |
[1218.66 --> 1223.66] and we hope others agree, and we'll consider this during the upcoming holiday shopping season. |
[1225.66 --> 1226.66] Can't say I disagree. |
[1226.66 --> 1229.66] Mr. Copeland, who I've actually never had the pleasure of meeting, |
[1229.66 --> 1233.66] but seems like a nice enough guy and doesn't deserve this kind of nonsense. |
[1233.66 --> 1239.66] All right, I've got another Ubisoft thing here that I'm going to skip and wait for Luke to come in so he can weigh on. |
[1239.66 --> 1248.66] But, I have the most hilarious thing that I probably saw this entire week to show you guys here. |
[1248.66 --> 1254.66] And I'm going to fire it up on this computer so that I can screen share with you guys so you can see this. |
[1254.66 --> 1257.66] But this is freaking unreal. |
[1257.66 --> 1261.66] Gigabyte releases a triple, or it shows off. |
[1261.66 --> 1263.66] I don't think you can buy it yet. |
