No, this is real.

Because before Trump started his second term, it was a better place to live.

Also it’s harder normally to get into a prestigious Chinese university then a prestigious university abroad.

The game itself still needs to run the cachy proton, it is unclear if they are setting any proton version or just using the steam default

What version of proton are you running? Cachy has its own version that works great, I’m using it on arch via the AUR altho I don’t run cachy. Idk what bazzite comes with.

Do you only see this issue on bazzite?

There are other arch based distros you might have better mileage on if you keep having this issue with bazzite but want something different than cachy, like endeavorOS.

Also protondb you can filter by hardware to get even better results.

Not a direct answer to your question but the first step in replacing a lawn with a garden the nodig way is to cover the grass with something like cardboard and then cover the cardboard with as much as 12 inches of woodchips.

You can get the woodchips for free most of the time as arborists need places to dump. Try to be careful of the type of tree however as some trees have a higher activity than others.

New Zealander Everlee Wihongi has been released after two months in ICE detention, but has been left without her passport, Green Card or drivers’ licence, her mother says.

The 37-year-old Ngāpuhi woman was detained by ICE while attempting to return to the US on a Green Card - or Permanent Resident Card - after a three-week holiday in New Zealand in early April, because of a 2016 cannabis conviction.

Everlee’s mother Betty Wihongi and sister-in-law Courtney Wihongi told Saturday Morning of their huge sense of relief after confirmation she had been released near Phoenix, Arizona.

After initially being unable to find out whether today’s scheduled hearing had gone ahead, and frantic attempts to get through, they were finally able to make contact and speak with the just-released Everlee on FaceTime who got out about 6am NZ time.

“I can’t even put into words how we are feeling right now,” Courtney said. "That’s when it really hit that she’s actually out and that she’s actually free.

“It’s been a rollercoaster the past 24 hours.”

New Zealander Everlee Wihongi freed from ICE detention

Saturday Morning19 June 2026

Everlee was originally detained in California on 10 April, but was later transferred to Arizona. On release, Everlee had been given back the bags and clothes she entered the US with and put on a bus from the ICE detention centre.

“She went through an out-take process where they gave back her personal belongings, and she put on regular clothes,” Betty said. "Then they put her on a bus and sent her to the [Phoenix International Welcome Centre], an hour away from [the Eloy Detention Centre]. But it took like five hours because they had to stop at different detention centres to pick people up.

"We’re just relieved and happy that we’re at this point right now.

“We’re on the way to the airport right now. We’re looking forward to seeing her.”

However after the ordeal and uncertainty, Betty was frustrated the essential government identification documents had not been among Everlee’s personal belongings that were returned on release. It meant her daughter could not even book a hotel room for herself until her family were able to fly across the US to meet her.

“We’re trying to organise a place for her to go and stay at while she’s waiting for us to arrive”, Betty said.

Once reunited, the family plan to get her back home to Wisconsin in the next few days.

Courtney said her sister-in-law would need to do some healing after the experience and the conditions, including being housed in rooms with up to 60 other people at a time.

“At the moment she’s so content to be out and to be free.”

But: “It’s no conditions that any human being should have to endure … it’s been terrible,” Courtney said.

Betty said the New Zealand government’s response had not been good enough.

“I’m just really disappointed with the New Zealand government, and with a lot of the misinformation that Winston Peters put out, it just really hurt our case with the lies that he put out.”

I appreciate your disagreement as I was being (perhaps a little too) sarcastic above.

However, I would counter your point sincerely by saying that affordability and a lack of resources are more likely causes for native people having less children.

There is also a lot of fear for the future from things like war, nationalism, and various other global catastrophies.

I know a lot of thoughtful married people that find it easier not to have children then to worry about these things. And this is not something unique to Japan.

Also I’d say the anti-immigration policies and culture speak for themselves.

In any case.,I’m sure that money could better fight a population decline if it weren’t being given to dating apps.

We have a population problem. But we don’t want to make it easier for people to have children or to increase immigration. We better give tax money to a company instead.

The problem here, is that the court procedure itself is an act of violence and is being used as a weaponized dox.

I took your comment to mean that you were talking about journalism having political bias in general. I was adding context to that idea since the post features an article from Aljazeera.

For sure, but a regime is more than one person.

…and then realize half of them are stupider than that.

My understanding was that the Syrian Kurds received the arms.

The Resistance in Iran is supposed to like the Iranian Kurds, but idk how they feel about the Syrians.

This is stuff I don’t actually understand however, I’m just parroting what I heard my Iranian American friends say.

Think of your average American.

My Iranian American friends tell me they don’t trust aljazeera as a source because they are anti-Iranian. I’m not sure how true that is, but I do know the contents of the videos I saw. And only the Iranian regime had guns.

A tactic that can sometimes be used is to use a smoke screen. To muddy the waters and flood the zone with disinformation, making people unsure about the truth.

I’m no propaganda expert but I think they might just be trying to make it seem like the US isn’t as stupid as everyone can plainly see, while also trying to justify a stronger barage of attacks.

I’m not sure if you noticed, but the number of civilians Trump claimed on Easter that the Iranian regime has killed more than doubled without a source, from 30,000 to hundreds of thousands. And while any number of unarmed protesters being gunned down in the street is bad (see ICE), Increasing the number seems to be a useful justification for a preventive strike against a school.

Sure, but that’s not what the article seems to be claiming and that’s what I’m calling out here.
