Real Life has been a bit busy

As I stated earlier, I bought a new house. I've had to rebuild the HVAC system, the deck, repaired some plumbing and did some rewiring. I still have a few more projects and then I will be back to posting updates. I had not expected this much work when I moved in. Still love the new home and I'll be back soon.
The freaking ads everywhere, I apologize

I "allowed" Google Adsense to control my site for a few months and was unaware of how they placed an ad after every news article, popups and just way more ads than anyone should ever see on any site.
I was showing a co-worker my website, on my work laptop, when I realized how much of a cluster**** Google had made of my site.
I Use an ad blocker and don't have a problem with visitors who do the same.
I apologize, and am not sure, how long my site has been flooded with these ads.
I simply want one ad banner that can easily be reduced or closed.
If you choose to support this site, great! If you hate ads, then block them.
This is a hobby and personal passion website. I like offsetting some of the cost to run it, but I don't expect visitors to deal with dozens of ads per page.
Updates on Hold for a Week or Two

CPCEC (Amstrad CPC emulator), ZXSEC (Sinclair Spectrum emulator) and CSFEC (Commodore 64 emulator) v20240414 - Released
- Details
- Category: Windows
What's New:
-- minor patch fixing unexpected bugs in systems where "unsigned char" is the default setting (reported by CPCbegin on his Raspberry Pi 400), some of them big (for example, 48K cartridge mapping was completely wrong in MSXEC), some of them small (for example, pressing LEFT in the debug screen when the cursor was on the left edge of the register panel would wrap it to the right, instead of staying still as it does when pressing RIGHT on the right edge). The extended AY chip and Z80 interfaces got reworked to allow finer control of audio clocks and memory-mapped I/O, respectively. MSXEC fixes bugs in the MSX cartridge mappers (for example Konami 8K cartridges react to the whole $6000-$BFFF area rather than just to $6000, $8000 and $A000) and the V9938 (the "flash" bit is ignored when the active VRAM page is below the 32K boundary, as in the water scenes of "Maze of Galious" for MSX2), emulates the DAC in "Konami's Synthesizer" and allows patching the current virtual cartridge through IPS files.

Atari 2600 Emulator - Gopher2600 v0.30.0 - Released
- Details
- Category: Multiple Platform
What's New:
ZIP file support
- ROM Selection window can navigate into zip files
ARM Additions
- Profiling can now be viewed as 'cycles / call'
* this shows the relative performance of a single call to the program's function
- Distinguishes between memory alignment requirements for different ARM architectures
* ARMv4 doesn't allow misalignment at all and will access an aligned address instead
* ARMv7 does allow misalignment depending on the instruction
* recent versions of Gopher2600 incorrectly assumed a ARMv7 architecture, which leads to incorrect Harmony emulation
- Misaligned memory accesses optionally treated as memory faults
* when enabled misalignment is reported in the memory faults window
* and will cause execution to abort if Abort of Memory Fault option is enabled
- Strobing of local variables in local variables window
- Added COPROC MEM DUMP
* also accessible through context menu in static memory window
ARM Corrections / Bug Fixes
- Static memory window performance improvement
- ASR disassembly corrected
- COPROC ID corrected
- 32bit EOR (register) instruction
- Allocation of instruction to source lines uses EndSequence flag in DWARF line entry
* this improves startup time and removes trailing instructions from functions
- Disassembly of 32bit instructions
* instructions following a 32bit instruction had the wrong address
- More accurate identification of VCS "kernel" in which ARM code is being executed
Other Bug fixes
- Fixed supercharger mutliloading for 'fastload' binaries
- PlusROM network transmission
- Corrected reflection of HMOVE information
* a new HMOVE would be noted in the reflection overlay but it would never be cleared
Other Changes
- Notification icons and FPS window
* ARM developer icon moved to the FPS overlay
* FPS window now shows multiple icons if required
- Mouse wheel works for rewinding in the debugger
* moves in 10 frame increments. hold shift-key for single frame increments
NOTE: Compilation of Gopher2600 from source now requires Go v1.22.0 or above
