This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

For me it's recovering my boss's files from his broken mac.

I have decades of experience in Linux. I can invoke the recovery shell and rsync his files onto a USB stick. But save that locked down OS? No idea. I'd have to watch a video and hope I don't make a mistake.

The thing with Mac is, it's easy if you set it up correctly and if you haven't set it up correctly (as in you have left it in default mode), it's borderline impossible.
