Going to have to order online. None of the welding shops or hardware stores around me carry flux for aluminum. :(
I should be able to get by with soldering alone for this project, though. :)
Ended up going with Sn95Cu4.8Ag0.2 solder. Wish me luck. :P
(I also added some brass and some aluminum coupling nuts in case the steel ones refuse to be wet by the solder.)

Why Are So Many Pedestrians Killed by Cars in the US?https://www.construction-physics.com/p/why-are-so-many-pedestrians-killed
Pedestrian accidents getting more deadly seems like fairly strong evidence for the theory that the rise in large SUVs is behind the uptick in pedestrian deaths: it’s not that more pedestrians are getting hit by vehicles, it’s that the ones that are getting hit are more likely to die.Tags: #dandelíon #politics #transportation

Instead of "demanding" Microsoft continue to update software for old machines, how about we encourage 1 billion Windows 10 users who can't upgrade to Windows 11, to upgrade to GNU/LInux instead?

"Replacement SR-162 Puyallup River Bridge"
The old bridge is in rather poor shape, so they're replacing it.

"Whitehorse Trail"
The Whitehorse Trail was very overgrown along most of its length, with long stretches where no trail surface was visible at all through the grass. It was pretty bumpy with loose gravel in places, so a cyclocross bike would do much better than a road bike.

"Pritzker, Newsom threaten to quit National Governors Association over Trump troop deployments"Bipartisan US governors' group faces division over Trump's deployment of troops to states
Newsom and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, both potential 2028 presidential candidates, contend Donald Trump's troop deployments should be a matter of concern for all governors. But some Republican governors have supported Trump's actions, and the national governors' group has not taken a position.“I’m not sure the policy issue of whether the Constitution allows for federal involvement in the state and the National Guard is something that the NGA would want to tackle,” said Republican Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe, who co-chairs the organization’s task force on emergency management and public health.
The Democratic governors of Kansas, Michigan and Minnesota already have left the NGA this year. Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly said she didn’t think the roughly $100,000 annual dues paid by the state were a good investment and encouraged the group to push back against canceled federal grants.
