Where did he get that wooden laptop? That looks so awesome. And way more comfortable probably.

It came from https://madebrinquedos.lojavirtualnuvem.com.br/produtos/notebook-lousa/ but I hope you understand that it's not a real computer. The screen is a blackboard, to write on with chalk and the mouse is the eraser. It's very cute but not at all a real computer, hence "one that has never run any blob. Nada." There's also a toy cell phone with toy (wired) earphones: https://madebrinquedos.lojavirtualnuvem.com.br/produtos/celular-lousa/

But I recently read about wooden transistors via https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2218380120 so a wooden computer might not need to remain fake, if one could assemble enough wooden transistors.

Thanks. On free software, Alexandre Oliva is one of the people I most enjoy reading from. I wish more people would make such kind of interviews.

I was not aware of what is reported at https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/blogs/lxo/draft/suitable-online-banking. We live in a world where people are mistreated in so many ways that forcing one to run non-free software on one's computer probably looks like a minor evil to many people.
