  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.

    Not Arch though. It would say so.

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

    [–] Ozonowsky@lemmy.world 22 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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

    [–] blindbunny@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

    [–] SpikesOtherDog@ani.social 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

    [–] swab148@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

    Excise Linux sounds metal AF.

    [–] yonder@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    This would be very useful for offline installation.

    [–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years 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.

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

    [–] needanke@feddit.org 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

    The grass looks like my doormat:

    [–] Peck@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

    I feel overheated just looking at the picture.

    [–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

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

    [–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

    So are the brick veneers and cookie-cutter layouts

    [–] collapse_already@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

    [–] meliaesc@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

    [–] collapse_already@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

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

    [–] superkret@feddit.org 5 points 2 years ago

    ew, Red Hat

    [–] cypherpunks@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

    [–] JamesBoeing737MAX@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

    Or, they are compensating for their size.

    [–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years 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 18 points 2 years ago (7 children)

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

    [–] TwanHE@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (7 children)

    Your guys grass isn't green all year round?

    [–] d00phy@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years 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 2 years 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 2 years 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 3 points 2 years 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 is the area gets a decent winter. In the mid-Atlantic region, you’ll see tall Fescue handle winter just fine.

    [–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 2 points 2 years 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.

    Suburban desert

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 years ago

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

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

    [–] rtxn@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

    This is what happens if you modprobe *

    [–] friend_of_satan@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

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

    [–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

    Or a fan of Movietone cartoons
