I hope you're kidding with respect to Switzerland's handling of covid...

We have the worst vaccine coverage of western Europe.

The government didn't take the necessary measures in September/October last year which lead to thousands of unnecessary deaths.

Most schools have no mitigation in place, no CO2 meter, no filtering, no mask, no testing.

The largest political party (SVP/UDC) has systematically downplayed the pandemic.

Etc.

I like Threema because it has a business model that sounds viable and doesn't rely on donations or advertisement.

- Paid app for general public (one-time fee)

- Separate "Enterprise" solution (Threema "Work") with paid subscriptions

I had a VERY quick glance at it and there doesn't seem to be any USB support, is that also because of US sanctions or did I miss it ?

I've used http://docopt.org/ in the past for a toy project.

It's an interesting concept where you define the command line "help" syntax and it generates an arguments structure and an associated parser. I've used the C version, I believe the C++ version is better maintained.

What about replacing the laptop and just cloning the content. I wouldn't notice.

I think that feature is built in the Android Play store. From what I understand you can get a refund if you don't like the app.

Of course it is cancelled.

The federal government announced all events with more than 1000 people involved cancelled till 15th of March. It just cannot go on.

It's how you access memory mapped registers in C. It's writing the value 0x04 at that address using a 32-bit memory write. There is a peripheral register at that location.

From the article:

> I quickly identify a pure HW processing 500us before the beginning of the UART ascii strings ‘ets June 2018’ corresponding to the BootROM process.

> This HW activity is probably the eFuses Controller initialisation, and a load of the eFuses values in some dedicated buffer memory, to be used by the Flash controller for further steps).

How one would come to this specific conclusion without having any prior knowledge of the boot rom ?

Same happened to me last night, I reviewed all my access rights on security.google.com, couldn't find anything wrong. Reviewed my calendar access rights, couldn't find anything wrong.

Glad to have an explanation for this phenomenon.
