I've already decided that I won't be flying for the next four years, for my personal safety. How about if we all stop flying? The airline industry doesn't deserve the brunt of government incompetence, but none of us do. If everyone stopped flying, a huge industry would be sick of Musk's shit ASAP.

Earlier today I had posted a link to a keynote speech Governor Walz gave at a GIS convention last month. That was an unlisted youtube video whose link I saw on Mastodon. I have since found the official link from the conference's sponsor. Use this one. mediaspace.esri.com/media/t/1_d2...
