Yes. There’s no side/side wiggle. There’s a lip on the floor that prevents it from moving side to side. The thing is really heavy and I probably would rip up the floor if I was able to move it on my own.
Landlord has proven useless. I’m either on my own to get it or buying a new phone.
How about two fishing poles - and wire something grabby through loops at the end of each one. Come at it from both sides and try to squeeze it and pull it up.
Maybe wire two coathangers in a way that they interlock when you bring them together. Put one in first, make sure you know it’s under the phone, then bring the other one in from the other side. Have a pair of needle-nose pliers ready to grab it the last few inches.
If your landlord isn’t interested, document the conversation you had with him and take matters into your own hands, being careful to make sure you can hide the evidence of what you had to do.
You’ll be long gone by the time he notices, and it serves him right for not fulfilling his obligations as your landlord.
Yeah if you know exactly where the phone is you could always take a panel out of the wood with a jig saw. Good luck though. Hopefully no wires running back there.
Oh yeah. My sister and I watched it and fuck is it brutal. I’m almost glad I can’t fish my phone from where it’s stuck now.
If you really expand the concept further, the world is essentially being controlled by a constantly improving AI. I mean, we’re really fucking close to the singularity.
