Once again current events have forced me to confront the difficult fact that Larry Ellison and John McAfee are actually two entirely different people and only one of them is dead.

I knew John, and although he got wilder and crazier in later years, I've always found it difficult to believe *his* suicide as well.
But yes there is a similarity between the two cases, definitely.
(I'm not sure why some in this thread seem to approve of his death -- he didn't do anything like Epstein did)
The major difference is that unlike John McAfee, Larry Ellison hasn't been caught exploring romance with whales (yet), but perhaps that's why Ellison bought a private island.
