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.
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.
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.
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.
I mean, different regions have different plants which they call "grass", not to mention different climates. It is genuinely possible that even grass in the wild goes brown in that region...
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.

Not Arch though. It would say so.
btw
I do too, brother. I do too.
Red hat obviously.

FTFY. Merry X₁₁mass!
Your version is better.
Haha thanks, it's the official greetings by the FSF Foundation
The useless tiny lawn:tree/shrub ratio in this neighborhood is extremely depressing.
I've seen doormats that look more alive than this lawn...
So are the brick veneers and cookie-cutter layouts
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.
I feel overheated just looking at the picture.
The grass looks like my doormat:
Now I want a distro named "Giant Linux" that's the opposite of Tiny Core Linux
Includes all drivers, every app and library from repositories, and all of flathub and snap store.
Yas you get it! Which desktop do you want? All of them 😎
I tried that once. Forget which distro. It didn't update well.
I seem to remember a distro that was like this by default, like you installed everything then removed the stuff you didn't need.
Excise Linux sounds metal AF.
This would be very useful for offline installation.

Bruh, why the fuck is the grass length in the negatives? no surprise its fucking shit brown. america smh.
Because it’s winter. I don’t know what you expected.
Your guys grass isn't green all year round?

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
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.

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

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
Same, the only time it's that colour is in summer during a drought.
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.
bro.... grass is green in Winter if its normal length
Bro… not all grass is the same, not all winters are the same, not all soil are the same. Bro.
Where are you?
I’ve never seen grass stay green over winter, in the northeast US
yeah, cuz america apperantly has no real grass, also everybody cuts it like 2mm big... who expects that to survive?
The best cut changes seasonally
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.
Suburban desert
I think 48/50 states have been considered to be in at least moderate drought, for a few years now.
I can tell,
I think this is my neighborhood. If not, it might as well be.
Plant a tree, it looks so... civilized.

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
Or, they are compensating for their size.
Threatening HOA notice in 3... 2.. 1.
I don't think I've ever seen that kind of bloat with Linux.
This is what happens if you
modprobe *A gentu soul probably.
Or a fan of Movietone cartoons
Sadly they have a red hat
Mario 64 fan
Inflatables are the worst.
