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

    [–] [email protected] 23 points 4 months ago (2 children)

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

    [–] [email protected] 13 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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

    [–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months 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.

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

    Excise Linux sounds metal AF.

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

    This would be very useful for offline installation.

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months 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.

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

    [–] [email protected] 23 points 4 months ago (7 children)

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

    [–] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago (7 children)

    Your guys grass isn't green all year round?

    [–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months 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.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months 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

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months 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.

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months 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.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

    Nope. Americans are obsessed with a boring tiny plant that stays dormant for at least a quarter of the year, closing in on half of it.

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

    I think 48/50 states have been considered to be in at least moderate drought, for a few years now.

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

    I can tell,

    [–] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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

    [–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months 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.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

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

    ew, Red Hat

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

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

    Or, they are compensating for their size.

    [–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

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

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

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

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

    This is what happens if you modprobe *

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

    A gentu soul probably.

    Sadly they have a red hat
