So, I was wondering if there could be such a thing as peaceful co-existence in this world. I think not. There would always be wars, famines,riots etc. Then, the question arises, what is one to do?
It is best to stay far from the maddening crowd. I was looking for the log house/cabin Kaczynski was living in and managed to find a photograph:





I would love to live in the wilderness all alone . Only I cannot bring myself to eat any kind of meat even if I try very hard, so ,I would have to make do with the berries and the like.
Reading books all alone. I could keep a pair of flint stones to make fire. Keep myself warm. I think I might be an individualistic anarchist like our friend Silenus.

I am not even sure though if there is any kind of wilderness left. I would not mind even dying for the want of medication. It might be a bit painful, but the solitude would a kind of balm for the weary heart.
I wonder if you ever came across a man who lived alone out in the forests.

Please try not be very sad. You could look at some fat animals like bunnies -they appear cute sometimes. You know Bukowski could not fit in the regular society too. PK Dick had a lot of problems and suffered a great deal. Do try to hold on.

While trying to root Android at library I saw a book which dedicates a fourth of it praising Cioran

In Praise of Failure: Four Lessons in Humility by Costica Bradatan

PEACE!

I got the string of numbers after issuing command: 
fastboot oem get_unlock_data

When I feed them into the input field, what is returned is that my device is not eligible for unlocking bootloader.

Somehow I had gotten the unlock codes last September while in the room in Asbury Park, the infamous "Del Monte" - Count Dracula's Place ...

Well, when I feed those codes with:

fastboot oem unlock <unlock key>

It returns:
(bootloader) usage: fastboot oem unlock < unlock code >
FAILED (remote failure)
finished. total time: 0.177s

Meanwhile, my mom had endoscopy and may be released from hospital today.   I have some gas, enough to drive to help her, to see her, but I am without funds, operating on fumes as far as fuel for my animal body goes.

F--k this world.
I guess I am leaving this as a note to myself, or if another reader of this board is inspired to jailbreak an Android ...  ;D

Why remote failure?

Greetings Holden, Raul, and Lurkers!

"Our" philosophical brother, Silenus of New York State, had been curious about the nature of faqirs ... I

 am curious about any radical (militant and violent) resistance poor holy beggars have made against oppressive agencies/
