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

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

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

    [–] Peck@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months 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 months ago

    I feel overheated just looking at the picture.

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

    So are the brick veneers and cookie-cutter layouts

    The grass looks like my doormat:

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

    [–] Ozonowsky@lemmy.world 24 points 3 months 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 months ago (1 children)

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

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

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

    [–] swab148@lemm.ee 5 points 3 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.

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

    Excise Linux sounds metal AF.

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

    This would be very useful for offline installation.

    [–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 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.

    [–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months 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 months ago (2 children)

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

    [–] TwanHE@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago (4 children)

    Your guys grass isn't green all year round?

    [–] d00phy@lemmy.world 7 points 3 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.

    [–] AA5B@lemmy.world 3 points 3 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

    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.

    [–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 5 points 3 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.

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    Is this sarcasm? Maybe you should review how seasons work.

    [–] TwanHE@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

    No, our grass has been in our backyard for 15+ years now, never having anything else done then being mowed occasionally and yet it's still green 365 days a year. So I'm genuinely confused.

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

    Well I'm glad you are enjoying your summer beach house

    You do realized not everyone lives in the same climate right? My guess is that you live somewhere that stays about freezing consistently

    [–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 3 months ago (2 children)

    bro.... grass is green in Winter if its normal length

    [–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 9 points 3 months ago

    Bro… not all grass is the same, not all winters are the same, not all soil are the same. Bro.

    [–] AA5B@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

    Where are you?

    I’ve never seen grass stay green over winter, in the northeast US

    • Massachusetts
    • New York
    • Michigan
    • New Hampshire
    [–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 3 months ago (2 children)

    yeah, cuz america apperantly has no real grass, also everybody cuts it like 2mm big... who expects that to survive?

    [–] AA5B@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

    The best cut changes seasonally

    • cut medium in the spring to better control it in fast growth
    • cut long in the summer to hold more moisture and choke out weeds, to better handle dry season
    • cut short in fall, to help it green up faster in the Spring, reduce thatch, and make it easier to keep clean of debris over winter

    Once grass is hibernating, it’s not like cutting it short inhibits anything: that part of the grass isn’t coming back to life

    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 months ago (1 children)

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

    [–] collapse_already@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 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.

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

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

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

    Inflatables are the worst.
