Oracle laid off ~13% of its staff to fund a $300B computing deal with OpenAI. Now, a credit downgrade and $7B in required power grid guarantees put the massive project in jeopardy.
John McAfee claimed he never used McAfee VirusScan. He never said why but while on the run in Belize he said no one should use VirusScan.

If you want the weird stuff on Oracle there’s a crazy woman who’s obsessed with Larry Ellison that writes all kinds of things about him on a place called the Drey Dossier.
