So uh this is horrifying: someone attempted to poison the entire city of Oldsmar, FL by hacking into their water treatment plant and boosting the amount of lye being injected x100 or so.

People are fucking weird.
Also, this actually happens more often than you'd think. I remember when I was a kid we had to not use water from the tap for drinking for a few days because some disgruntled worker poured something into the supply- IIRC it was nowhere near enough to actually cause damage, most likely, but was enough they put out a boil warning.

Yes, I have a life. It's quite different from yours.

come gentle night. come loving black browed night
give me my romeo. and when he shall die
take him and cut him out in little stars
and he will make the face of heaven so fine
that all will be in love with night
and pay no worship to the garish sun. william shakespeare

I am practicing a Chinese proverb. "It is better to be scared than to be terrified".
