• Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, has denied reports that his company is not going to invest $100 billion in OpenAI.  (CNBC)
  
  He explained that the real story is that Nvidia is not going to invest $100 billion in OpenAI:

  "Sam is closing the round (of investment) and we will absolutely be involved," Huang added.  "We will invest ‍a great deal of money, probably the largest investment we’ve ever made."
  
  Asked whether ‌it would be over $100 billion, he said: "No, no, nothing like ⁠that."

  So there you have it.  Nvidia will absolutely definitively be going ahead with investing some amount in some company at some point maybe.
  
  

• SpaceX has requested federal approval to launch a million datacenters into orbit.  (Tech Crunch)
  
  That used to be a lot.
  
  
  
• Meanwhile Jeff Bezos' rocket company, Blue Origin, has paused space tourism to focus on the Moon.  (Tech Crunch)
  
  That seems bold considering that the company's first orbital flights only launched last year, but good luck to them.
  
  
  
• You can now buy a flying car.  (Yahoo)
  
  Well, more of a flying motorbike.
  
  Actually, more of a flying hammock slung between two banks of rotors and surrounded by a plastic shell.
  
  Anyway, yours for only $200,000.  And you're not allowed to fly it more than 200 feet above the ground, or in regulated airspace.
  
  And it's classified as an ultralight aircraft, and it doesn't have wheels, so not really a car at all.

Star Detective Precure: The latest Pretty Cure series - almost all of them are standalone seasons - is set in 2027, and also in 1999, which they show with an ad on a TV in the background displaying how primitive the phones were in that era.  Which for their core audience of pre-teen girls may as well have been the Mesozoic.

Does nothing to change my opinion that the very first season of Pretty Cure is the only one you need to watch unless you grew up with it.  Nagisa and Honoka from that first series were the hardest-working magical girls since Cutie Honey.  It's not available on Crunchyroll or Amazon Prime, though, so I'm not sure where to watch it if you don't already have it.

I might watch some more of this latest series to see if they do anything with the time travel angle, but otherwise it's just more Pretty Cure Lite.
