If you know a valid serial number (say from a decommissioned Mac) do you know if you're able to just use that or is there some sort of validation of the device to the serial number?

Presumably they'd have to treat the mycelium in some way but it would be cool if they didn't have to as mycelium can grow together and form a single organism. That would mean after you built your wall out of bricks, it would just

I've had a lot of luck with blocking out a couple hours a day for "dedicated work time." You have to aggressively defend that time and reject requests where someone carelessly double-books you anyway to be able to keep that t
