On: Game of Life, simulating itself, infinitely zoomable

[screamingninja]

Does not work for me in Firefox: `Uncaught TypeError: c[b[k]] is undefined`. Opens normally in the other major browser.

I had to disable Enhanced Tracking Protection AKA ETP from firefox to run it.Otherwise it is stuck on loading screen.

Though it is working with uBlock origin(default settings)..

I've downloaded saharan's repo and poked around the Life Universe project in Chrome and FF— it seems that the pixels representing the compressed animation are retrieved through a Context2D::drawImage call, and are different in Firefox and other browsers.

It makes sense that ETP would mess with the pixels output from a drawImage call, to fight fingerprinting.

Maybe the ImageLoader can be replaced with a more direct PNG decoder stapled to a fetch(). If I can make that work tonight, I'll create a pull request; this is how I meet the coolest people.

PR submitted!

There's more going on here. I added the website to the exception list for ETP and I'm still stuck on the loading screen.

Does work on FF, MacOS 14.3.1 (Sonoma :-/)

(Some extensions conflict with some webpages, too...)

One day we will get it together so every computer program works on every computer, if we don't collapse our ecosystem first.

Does not work for me either, Firefox on Windows. But I'm getting a different error: this.frames.vb[k] is undefined

Weird, I viewed it on firefox with no issue. MacOS, latest version of firefox, mostly just privacy blocking extensions.

[monktastic1 → screamingninja]

For me it never loads on Android Chrome.

[matsemann → monktastic1]

Firefox it shows "Loading..." but never goes on. On Chrome the page never even loads. Weird.

Weirdly it works fine for me in Firefox but just stays loading forever in Chrome.
