Denial

Hi, have you noticed what is now appearing on Dawson's site? Is the appeal real? I intend to make a small donation.
Then I would need to run the Javascript on another website, is that possible? How to do? Is there another similar emulator?
Thanks.

Hmm, it being a Bitcon-only-link is making me suspicious, even more so since there is no more personal data in the pop-up-window, but indeed the text could be used as such on any website. This makes me suspect the website has been hacked - most likely by an automated script that scans for vulnerable websites and automatically adds this banner.

Maybe someone can contact Matt directly to confirm or deny? The contact-info on his website just says "none" - but this may also well be the work of a hack.

The "About" box has a gmail address.

would it be possible and legal to implement this java emulator in your own php website?
If so, how to do it?
Thanks.

I think so, there's a page with an embeddable link.

I made an announcement about this last week (viewtopic.php?f=1&t=10059 ), but I never considered it could have been a hack. I haven't heard from Dawson directly. I hope he's ok all the same.

Have you already tried https://nippur72.github.io/vic20-emu ? It has zero user interface but the emulation is quite accurate (tough not comparable to VICE).

Ciao Nippur, si conosco il tuo emulatore...
mi necessita una soluzione per far avviare il programma direttamente con un link....
E' possibile con il tuo?

Ora noto che l'emulatore di Dawson, pur non presentando più la richiesta di bitcoin, ha inibito questa funzione..


Hi Nippur, yes I know your emulator ...
I need a solution to start the program directly with a link ....
Is it possible with yours?

Now I notice that the Dawson emulator, even though it no longer presented the bitcoin request, has inhibited this function ..

yes you can load an external .prg file with something like this:

(joy=1 is used to turn joystick emulation with cursor keys, you can omit it)
