This interviewer was good. Bomb-interviews don't work well with Stallman. You have to let him speak. If necessary, do some editing afterwards -- but do let him speak. A live interview with Stallman doesn't work either. I would go as far as eliminate the role of the interviewer totally.

I mostly use graphical programs, and when I do use a command-line program, it's usually only because there's not a graphical equivalent. The one exception is Nano, my preferred command-line text editor; I prefer to use Nano for entering commit messages.

To be fair, Xubuntu is also not very good in terms of consuming RAM by default. The live CD has lots of GNOME dependencies and applications, meaning it is just a bit bloated. If you want to see Xfce really shine (if memory is an issue as your post seems to suggest), try the Debian Xfce Live

You only need to keep the latest kernel and, for safety, a previous that works well for sure (because you have used it for weeks, with all your hardware). Other versions can be removed from the package manager.

Yes, of course. Use a CD-R instead. It's reusable and works around most USB caveats. I don't remember a CD/DVD ever failing if the ISO is checked against hash sums. Unfortunately, these days a built-in optical drive is a rarity. An external drive is bulkier than a USB key.
