supercilious

Intel still disables AVX instructions on their low-end Core architecture chips for market segmentation purposes. It is also entirely absent to begin with from their Atom and Celeron chips. AMD did not have AVX support until Ryzen, but they are still selling Piledriver based CPUs on their AM4 platform.

Firefox can't blindly use AVX without checking for its presence or it will crash on these types of systems.

Thats great to hear, I'll try it out again when I get home.

Any word on an Android app or at least an API for third party developers to make one? One of the best things about Dropbox is the API.

IMHO, the reason Wuala is not popular (certainly the reason I dropped it), is: - Its bloated and slow Java swing client app. - It's buggy as hell, using the dokan integration MD5s of uploaded files do not match often. Using the java client directly works OK, but it doesn't exactly inspire confidence. - Really poor integration with the OS (it wanted to install a kernel mode driver to create a filesystem mapping.) - The inability due to its cryptree encryption protocols to do any kind of delta-upload. - It had a bizarre notion of permissions, for example, there is no way to hide from the public which groups one is in. - No android client - Poor website, impossible to use on a mobile web-browser

Much prefer the alternatives, like Dropbox, SugarSync mostly these days. Wuala seems like it is ideal for uploading backups and other rarely changing files, and combined with the ability to get 100GB free (almost) storage this is what I think it should be used for. Certainly nothing involving rapid change or collaboration.
