  • In one of his videos, Daniil (not the interviewer in this video but the interviewer who started this channel) spoke about how it was getting harder to find people who wanted to speak on camera and even when they did find someone they would often get in touch to ask about taking the video down. The inference was they probably got a visit or call from local police or some other pressure to not be on camera.

    In comparison to some of Daniil’s later videos filled with folks repeating Russian media talking point (another reason Daniil gave up on street interviews) this video seems quite refreshing. Hope they are able to continue making more.


  • You can get Gentoo up and running pretty quickly by following the handbook. From memory it’s easy to miss one or two clear instructions because the styling of the handbook can add more eye-catching weight to the explanation than the actual commands. So be sure to re-read areas where things don’t seem to working out.

    Gentoo also has a binary repo if you don’t plan to stray from whatever installation profile defaults you start off with.

    I can’t confirm a simple server install of Gentoo is somehow more lean than any other distribution.

    I’ve used gentoo-install with success previously although I don’t know how up to date it is.
