Ask HN: Help
I'm stranded with a MacBook Pro with a totaled screen a MacBook with an account where my iCloud is not enabled, no phone 'conveniently' left at flat by one of the I would say aggressors aka crazy ex-girlfriend. So entering the password for iCloud falters at 2 factor auth.
The MacBook also has a cracked screen and coincidentally? it seems to be getting worse as are the keys, many of which don't click well.
I need to get access to some of my contacts, how do I do it in this circumstance?
On the other hand access to my data might be what the crazy ex and gang wants so maybe it's better as is.
Thoughts?

[ 3.0 ms ] story [ 15.1 ms ] threadThe ex-girlfriend physically attacked me and tried to lock me down in the flat by stealing the key. I got the key at the cost of dropping my MacBook Pro, shattering the screen. The 11" MacBook is hers (she left it behind in a hurry) with an account I created for myself just in case from which I am writing now.
I can't log in to her acc as it is an admin account. Sorry for the drama but HN is about the only social network I can login to now and get some support/advice.
PS. Got an idea, while writing the comment, that could work.
PPS. I am Russian and was born and live in Moscow, crazy ex is Russian too, so that might explain some things.
