What hardware are you using?
I am using a Lemote Yeelong, a netbook with a Loongson chip and a 9-inch display. This is my only computer, and I use it all the time. I chose it because I can run it with 100% free software even at the BIOS level.

And what software?
To initialize the machine and boot, it uses PMON. Above that, it uses gNewSense, one of the totally free GNU/Linux distros.

I spend most of my time using Emacs. I run it on a text console, so that I don’t have to worry about accidentally touching the mouse-pad and moving the pointer, which would be a nuisance. I read and send mail with Emacs (mail is what I do most of the time).

I switch to the X console when I need to do something graphical, such as look at an image or a PDF file.

Most of the time I do not have an Internet connection. Once or twice or maybe three times a day I connect and transfer mail in and out. Before sending mail, I always review and revise the outgoing messages. That gives me a chance to catch mistakes and faux pas.

Behold a man who lives in the shell... avoids the web... uses the internet only for email (= communicating with people).

I use the internet for entertainment, distraction.

If it were possible to make a shower that is entirely free (as in freedom) would Mr. RMS Matthew Stallman accept to use it to promote freedom?

Aren't PDFs the enemy of your freedom?

Which sort of pictures do you look at? Are they Touhous? Which Touhou would RMS?

Nope, there are many free PDF readers out there and format itself is free.

Water used to be open-source.

Bad joke, sir. Perhaps doing stand up is not your thing.

I looked at the link from >>1's post and now I have an overwhelming urge to send RMS a bar of Ivory soap, a big bottle of shampoo, and a de-tangle brush (like I got my kid girls at age 3)...

The question is then /Prague does this make me a a Bad Person(tm)?

DNA is open source, by the way.
