17:03 🔗 bwn has quit IRC (Read error: Operation timed out)
17:21 🔗 bwn has joined #jsmess
17:26 🔗 SketchCow Screenshotting continues to work, and I still get hit with weirdos on the thing, doing bad grabs.
18:25 🔗 SketchCow http://www.retrogames.onl/
18:25 🔗 SketchCow Any idea how they're doing this?
18:39 🔗 Vito` it's loading from http://neptunjs.xyz
18:47 🔗 db48x badly; you get a blank page unless you allow it to load javascript from google analytics
18:49 🔗 SketchCow https://github.com/MoritzWillig/neptunjs
18:49 🔗 SketchCow That's not confusing at all
18:50 🔗 db48x I don't think that's related, actually
18:50 🔗 Vito` I couldn't get an emu to load in Safari, just ads
18:50 🔗 SketchCow No, I mean, yes, that's definitely a different project.
18:50 🔗 SketchCow Exact same name.
18:50 🔗 SketchCow Urbain Jean Joseph Le Verrier is listed as the creator, but that's a long-dead french mathematician
18:52 🔗 db48x bah
18:52 🔗 db48x it glitched right as I jumped, and the first goomba got me
18:54 🔗 SketchCow So, I found out about this because someone is leaving links on IA games pushing to their site
18:54 🔗 SketchCow The reason being that neptunjs has a kind of ponzi scheme going.
18:54 🔗 SketchCow You can use their site, as long as you let them take delicious ad money
18:54 🔗 db48x yea, I saw that
18:56 🔗 SketchCow the Jaguar emulator is more accurate than MAME
18:58 🔗 SketchCow Anyway, don't mean to be too distracting. I am just intruiged when someone emulates multi-platform, and wonder how they do it.
18:59 🔗 SketchCow Like, even if it's 5 insane Romanian coders blasting through, that's still a lot of work to make an emulator work
18:59 🔗 SketchCow Less so to go "oh, it's faster", because I'm sure they're taking 1000x shortcuts
19:00 🔗 db48x it's similar enough to what we're doing
19:00 🔗 db48x they're using emscripten to compile one emulator or another
19:01 🔗 SketchCow Yeah, I was definitely interested in how they did 3DO
19:16 🔗 Vito` I don't think it's one emulator, I think they're doing the libretro thing and just making them all have the same HTML-facing API
