    Not Arch though. It would say so.

    The useless tiny lawn:tree/shrub ratio in this neighborhood is extremely depressing.

    [–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 weeks ago

    I've seen doormats that look more alive than this lawn...

    [–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 weeks ago

    So are the brick veneers and cookie-cutter layouts

    [–] Peck@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

    Damn right. The first thing I thought when I saw that pic. What a nightmare. Thought of walking my dog or kids on that street makes me depressed.

    [–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

    I feel overheated just looking at the picture.

    The grass looks like my doormat:

    [–] blindbunny@lemmy.ml 22 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

    Now I want a distro named "Giant Linux" that's the opposite of Tiny Core Linux

    [–] Ozonowsky@lemmy.world 24 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

    Includes all drivers, every app and library from repositories, and all of flathub and snap store.

    [–] blindbunny@lemmy.ml 13 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

    Yas you get it! Which desktop do you want? All of them 😎

    [–] SpikesOtherDog@ani.social 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

    I tried that once. Forget which distro. It didn't update well.

    [–] swab148@lemm.ee 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

    I seem to remember a distro that was like this by default, like you installed everything then removed the stuff you didn't need.

    [–] SpikesOtherDog@ani.social 4 points 3 weeks ago

    Excise Linux sounds metal AF.

    [–] yonder@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

    This would be very useful for offline installation.

    [–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 weeks ago

    There's Endless OS, which goes in that sort of direction. It includes even a good chunk of Wikipedia, so you can just install it on PCs and ship those PCs into regions where they don't have internet.

    [–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (5 children)

    Bruh, why the fuck is the grass length in the negatives? no surprise its fucking shit brown. america smh.

    [–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 24 points 3 weeks ago (7 children)

    Because it’s winter. I don’t know what you expected.

    [–] TwanHE@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (7 children)

    Your guys grass isn't green all year round?

    [–] d00phy@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

    Also, generally speaking, I would agree that lawn is cut way too short, but again it depends on the grass. Bermuda kind of likes being kept short. St. Augustine looks better when it’s a bit longer.

    [–] AA5B@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

    I’ve always heard it recommended to cut short after it goes dormant. It helps the grass come back quickly in the spring and cuts down on thatch.

    That does look really short though

    [–] d00phy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

    Interesting. I always thought you cut it short in fall to allow light to get to new seed. I thought the best way to dethatch was a power rake.

    [–] d00phy@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

    Depends on the grass. Some go dormant in the colder months. Some don’t. In the south, St Augustine and Bermuda grasses are pretty popular. Both will go dormant if the area gets a decent winter. In the mid-Atlantic region, you’ll see tall Fescue handle winter just fine.

    I'm not sure why it is cut so short. However, it doesn't hurt anything as the grass is dormant.

    I think this is my neighborhood. If not, it might as well be.

    [–] meliaesc@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

    Plant a tree, it looks so... civilized.

    [–] collapse_already@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

    I planted an oak and a redbud this year. In a couple decades they'll look okay, I hope. Literally have to wrap them with special paper to keep them from getting sunburned while they are small.

    This area naturally only grows trees along creek beds. The natural plants are Blackland Prairie- tall grasses and "weeds." The HOA would have a cow if I let it go natural.

    [–] t_chalco@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

    Redbud. Blackland Prairie. Semi-ostentatious mega-houses. I see you north DFW suburbs.

    it's more likely they're a regular-sized linux user and it's only their inflatable penguin which is giant

    Threatening HOA notice in 3... 2.. 1.

    [–] friend_of_satan@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

    I don't think I've ever seen that kind of bloat with Linux.

    [–] rtxn@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

    This is what happens if you modprobe *

    A gentu soul probably.
