The Fall is arriving, but not in Cupertino
OK...
so I did go for a swim today!
and the sun was shining- but
who'd believe me: in just a few hours the clouds filled the city
and now it's raining
I wanted to check the temperature and the weather forecast
but apparently I have a bug on my dashboard
everytime I select the city Vienna/Wien/( Austria )
the program shows me the city of Cupertino
which I NEVER even had heard of before in my life
SOOOOoooooo...
since I'm guessing you don't know either, here are some facts about it that I looked up:
"Cupertino is a is a suburban city in Santa Clara County, in California,"
YEES... CA, as in the UNITED STATES!!!
"The town has given its name to the Cupertino effect."
hmm.. interesting! Now you wonder
WHAT IS THE CUPERTINO EFFECT!??!!?! RIGHT???
let me tell ya:
"The Cupertino effect is the tendency of a spellchecker to suggest inappropriate words to replace misspelled words and words not in its dictionary."
this means that if you are for example writing an essay in your computer
your dictionary might correct you wrongly
without you noticing
"The origin of the term is that the spelling "cooperation" was often changed to "Cupertino" by older spellcheckers with dictionaries containing only the hyphenated form "co-operation". (Cupertino is the home of Apple Inc., and thus would be in most computer spelling dictionaries.)
Users sometimes clicked "Change All" without checking whether the spellchecker's first suggestion was correct to begin with, resulting in even official documents with phrases like "as well as valuable experience in international Cupertino""
N O W ISN'T THAT FUNNY? :D
now that I think of it this is quite a silly bug
and the sure thing is that in Cupertino
it is always
sunny and warm!!!
Yes! I check it everyday!!!!
And for the sad people that do not live in Cupertino but still get their forecast
(like I do)
the only thing left to do is to listen to the
soothing sound of the rain and imagine
you're in sunny california!

GO FOR A SWIM IN A RIVER IN OCTOBER
I was not having a good day today, but I met a friend by chance and then...
Went for a swim in the river Danube!!!!
I usually do this quite often in july of course
but october the 8th will be reminded as the day I went swimming in a OH_DAMN_IT'S_COLD kind of water
The day now ended with some good news and with Etta James and Brook Benton playing in the background.
So if your day sucked, go for a swim in the river!
:D
