Question for the Mac Geeks: Is there any way to tell what flavor of Mac OS the M5 Air I just bought is running? I want to know exactly how soon I should bother opening the box.


My highly portable mini mobile setup.


So, I broke down and bought an M5 MacBook Air today. Here’s the deal:

Costco has the 10CPU/10GPU 16GB/1TB model for $1149 (price good until 7/12). They will be selling at that price until out of stock. I bought the last one at my location.

From Apple that model is $1599.

Seemed a no brainer.


Tonight’s culture…


Marched in a 4th of July Parade with The Mayor and then picked up some books at that neighborhood’s bookshop for a family book club situation we’re planning.


Cocktail, Cocktail, Mocktail.


I get to knock an item off my bucket list today. It’s not a huge one but I’m super excited about it.


Update: Cherry tree fully picked now.

So. Many. Cherries.

Everyone I know with trees are reporting a bumper crop this year.

For the record: This is the video that made Beatrix a big Alan Cumming fan. When he asked her how she knew his work and she told him he said, “Yeah, that is a really good bootleg!”


Did I mention that after hosting around 200 people for her grad open house, Beatrix went to an event celebrating the film Sweet Land and met Alan Cumming.? Well, that happened.
