The Telegraph in 2017 listed Corricella as the 11th of Italy's 19 most-beautiful villages.[1] According to TheLocal.it, "...you can wander down the hill and into the colorful port of Corricella, where each house is painted in a different pastel shade." [2]

Tourist writer Nick Bruno mentions Corricella in 2013, describing "a fine spot for absorbing the picturesque Corricella harbor scene."[3] Corricella is "the most characteristic spot" on Procida according to the Rough Guides travel series.[4]

gollark: > Laptops, notebooks and netbooks are difficult to support and we recommend to use the vendor flashing utility. The embedded controller (EC) in these machines often interacts badly with flashing, either by blocking all read/write access to the flash chip or by crashing (it may power off the machine or mess with the battery or cause system instability). Fascinating.
gollark: It does not see flash.
gollark: Possibly.

gollark: I ask because apparently you can enable CPU undervolting, which is otherwise disabled, with tweaks to this.
