[01:16] <Sgeo__> Why doesn't EM-Dosbox die in other tabs????
[01:18] <Sgeo__> BIGTIMER is my new favorite DOS program
[01:18] <Sgeo__> ...it does die in other tabs. BIGTIMER sort of just... stops when in another tab
[01:22] <Sgeo__> Bigtimer's timer died, but another program hasn't been
[01:29] * Sgeo__ vaguely eyes bai's PPP virtual ISP
[01:34] <Sgeo__> I wonder how difficult it would be to compile Tcpser to Emscripten
[01:47] <bai> that could be interesting.  I wonder if that's a route to doing full generalized PPPoW
[01:48] <bai> I've had a long-term idea about implementing a network stack in JS which would let me use VISPs to implement raw TCP, UDP, or other protocols directly in the browser
[01:49] <bai> the DOS apps I played with before were limited to a max of 115200 baud, but in theory PPP can be run at line speed
[01:50] <bai> eg, PPPoE
[01:55] <Sgeo__> Hmm, the usefulness of embedded tcpser is sort of ruined by endpoints still needing to be WebSocket enabled
[01:55] <Sgeo__> So how do I get your networking to work in the Windows 3.1 image? It was complaining about COM1
[01:56] <bai> hmm, I think the em-dosbox makefiles need some tweaks to add -s USE_SDL_NET=2
[01:57] <bai> there's a configure option to enable networking that looks for SDL_net.h
[01:57] <Sgeo__> Unrelatedly can you help me understand why switching tabs on an EM-DOSBOX seems to pause the program except sounds work fine?
[03:02] <Sgeo__> It's something to do with sound
[03:03] <Sgeo__> So why doesn't it work with VICE?
[03:26] <bai> hmm, how do you mean, the program pauses but audio continues?
[03:32] <Sgeo__> I was wondering if that weirdness was occuring (which would be nonsensical, yeah), but it's not. What happens is the program pauses if it's not playing audio, and doesn't pause if it is
[03:34] <Sgeo__> requestAnimationFrame isn't magically not dying
[03:39] <Sgeo__> I think I'm going to just solve the NTSC problem by having the emscripten main loop call the maincpu loop twice
[04:21] <Sgeo__> I feel lied to. emulator:dosbox is dosbox-sync.js.gz, not dosbox.js.gz
[04:22] <Sgeo__> ...same exact file though, huh
[04:25] <Sgeo__> ...DOSBox is using setTimeout? How?
[04:27] <Sgeo__> It's calling something that calls emscripten_sleep_with_yield
[04:32] <Sgeo__> DOSBox SYNC version is calling that function directly.
[04:32] <Sgeo__> It's basically just setTimeout except Emscripten doesn't yell at you for it
