The owner of OnlyFans, a site known for its adult content that is credited with revolutionising the online porn industry, has died at the age of 43.

Leonid Radvinsky, who was born in Ukraine and grew up in Chicago, had purchased the company in 2018 from its two UK-based founders.

The site's popularity surged during the Covid-19 pandemic, landing him on Forbes' annual list of billionaires just three years later.

He "passed away peacefully after a long battle with cancer," OnlyFans confirmed in a statement, which asked for privacy for his family.

Source for this article is Israeli news. Sharing because this is the the complete opposite of what has been said to us by american media the last few hours while the markets get manipulated. We will find out in the coming hours/days but figured to share what this other side is reporting

Reddit CEO says facial verification may be introduced. Ostensibly to prevent bots.

But we all know how dangerous this can be. But most likely Reddit users will just accept it.

Although they have a great free analogue right under their noses - Lemmy. Which is many times better than its competitor.

I wish more people would discover Lemmy, but that's unlikely.

Context from one of the witnesses:

Was leaving SFO around 10:30PM last night 3/22 when I heard yelling and saw a huge crowd of people. There were at least a dozen San Francisco police officers and a ridiculous amount of people gathered in a circle, some recording or talking on the phone. When I got closer, I saw a woman kneeling on the ground next to a couch/bench with a little girl and the police officers were basically surrounding her, facing away so seemingly keeping the crowd away/hiding her from the crowd. I asked a woman what happened, and she said she was there from the very beginning and saw it all. There were apparently two men in black + wearing backpacks who ran up and grabbed her passport, shoved her (?) and were keeping her there. She seemed to not know for sure, but she suspected that they were ICE agents and the police officers were there to protect them. I could see at least one of these men talking with police officers. Just a few minutes later, I heard yelling again and when I looked back, people were running up and filming while police officers were trying to keep them away. I saw the same woman as before now in a wheelchair in a very uncomfortable position (seemingly being shoved into it) and the small girl walking alongside her and crying. The two men in black were pushing the wheelchair/walking with her and there were a small group of officers/airport workers(?) going with her as well. People were yelling that she was being taken from her family, telling her to hug her kid, damning the ICE agents, etc. I wasn't really sure what was happening, so I filmed a video on my phone at a bad angle(I'll try to attach it). Afterwards, I asked a couple people if they knew what happened and they kinda confirmed it was ICE and they took her away for "questioning".

“The people that are the most susceptible to the corporate bullshit tended to choose the worst solutions to those problems on a consistent basis,” Littrell said.

Hmmmmmmmm.

Well that goes some way partially to explaining why management at large corporations almost as a rule are uselessly incompetent.

Something, something Republican hypocrisy on celebrating a death of a political figure you didn't agree with on with the leader of the Republican party and not randos on the internet.

Because most people paying attention not on russia's side aren't surprised this recent surge in russian assaults is failing the same way it has in the past, it is easy to miss the gravity of this for russia in this moment.

The winter terrorism campaign against Ukraine was supposed to break the back of the public's will by subjecting them to freezing nights and no power, then when public support was already broken and shattered russia would launch one last massive spring offensive and scare Ukraine into agreeing to peace terms that heavily advantaged russia. Any worry russians have about the war machine being about to collapse conveniently won't matter then because russia will present itself as powerful right until the end and scare Ukraine into surrendering.

This has clearly been the strategy for awhile now, but now it has become undeniably a failed one. This is a big moment for russia, even though for Ukraine this is just another week, facing down another mass armored assault after mass armored assault.

Also let me extend a personal middle finger to all the journalists and "analysts" that confidently concluded armored manuever warfare was dead because russia had stopped doing it, they stopped doing it because they suck at it and now they are forced to do it again anyways. Everyone has been trying desperately to read into the tea leaves of russia's war machine to try to predict the future of war, and at this point barely anybody in the russian military knows what they are doing, they are drunk, lying, overconfident and completely incapable of making a modern main battle tank or launching a combined arms armored assault with any degree of competency.

Russia is not "returning to an old strategy", this strategy never went away russia is just barely an organized military at this stage of things and more than at any other point in the war this reality has become undeniable now.

There will be no spring offensive for russia, just a large increase in death rate for russian soldiers.

Elements of Ultima VII were inspired by game developer Origin Systems' conflicts with competitor (and later owner) Electronic Arts. Origin Systems' corporate slogan was "We Create Worlds", while the main antagonist of the story – the Guardian – is presented as a "Destroyer of Worlds". The three evil "Generators" created by the Guardian in the game take the physical shapes of the contemporary Electronic Arts logo: a cube, a sphere, and a tetrahedron. Elizabeth and Abraham, two apparently benevolent characters who later turn out to be murderers, have the initials "E" and "A".[10] Electronic Arts would acquire Origin later that same year, on September 25, 1992.

EA, destroyer of worlds since 1992
