City Council member of a non-listed Twin Cities suburb I know:
FBI is involved. Most water systems use one of two control/alert systems that are old and make them easy targets.
All they did was shut down components of the systems e.g., wells/sewer lift stations. Most cities were able to cycle manually to get back up and running. There was not messages warning or ransom of which I am aware.
They could have done a lot more damage if they wanted to, rather than just shutting things down.
I live in Plymouth; there was no city communications about this nor did I see any issues. So, I assume there were no physical disruptions to service.
It's not just children. It's every age demographic. Maybe children might be more susceptible, but every single age group is a target.
I had one breakthrough DMT experience where I saw 'the machine elves' (I just saw what I describe as fast-moving fractals that I 'felt' were beckoning to me); but, we have matching experiences w/the other primary psychedelics: I only had relatively minor on-top visual distortions with even the largest doses of LSD (1500+ mcg) or mushrooms.
That said, everyone is different. I know that some of my friends absolutely lost their fucking minds on a few tabs of LSD and, purportedly, experienced wild hallucinations that I have to trust were real to them but haven't ever experienced myself.
I had VERY SPECIFIC requirements and I wanted the extended warranty. I would have paid 2x at a dealer. I know what I was doing.
I bought a used 2020 XC90 from CarMax last week. I did everything online from shipping it from Texas to Minnesota to financing the extended warranty. I walked in the door, gave them a cashier's check, and drove away within 10 minutes.
That's how it should be.

Anthropic is prepared to loosen its current terms of use, but wants to ensure its tools aren't used to spy on Americans en masse, or to develop weapons that fire with no human involvement.
The Pentagon claims that's unduly restrictive, and that there are all sorts of gray areas that would make it unworkable to operate on such terms. Pentagon officials are insisting in negotiations with Anthropic and three other big AI labs â" OpenAI, Google and xAI â" that the military be able to use their tools for "all lawful purposes."

Having the middle click paste is incredibly handy and practical. When I started using Linux almost 30 years ago (rocking Afterstep as desktop) I found it strange. Now it's hard to live without it. It improves your productivity a lot.
They do and it's well known, as well as being the beach head to influence freedesktop.org
For Aldi, which uses Instacart, I assumed it was because there is no 'fee' for pickup, but they have to pay someone to shop for you. I consider the difference a convenience fee.
That said, by not shopping in store, I end up getting only what is on my list and end up paying FAR LESS than I would if I was wandering around.
The N9 is, IMHO, the best phone I've ever had. I miss it dearly. It was destroyed by the Nokia authorized repair center when doing routine maintenance under warranty.
That phone was way ahead of its time in features (twice ahead compared with the iPhone, which only matched its features over five years later). And its performance compared with the flagship Android phones at the time (all with double the cores and double the RAM) was unparalleled.
