gollark: Is there some reason you can't just use whatever language's equivalent of `sleep(1)` or something?
gollark: ```javascriptasync whateverParameters => { const summoner = await api.get('euw1', 'summoner.getBySummonerName', result) const data = await api.get('euw1', 'league.getLeagueEntriesForSummoner', 'MLR_5XD45pduq2iducsga00c4qi5sWqpaRkadd_E0fFhKXU') await msg.reply("Found league info for " + args[0] + "\nName:" + result + "\nRank:"+ data.tier + " " + data.rank)}```or something.
gollark: Have you tried writing it with async/await syntax instead? That might make it clearer.
gollark: <@336962240848855040> You asked about a POWER ISA server: you actually can but it's very expensive. There's a company called Raptor Computing Systems or something which sells POWER9 CPUs and boards.
gollark: Alpine Linux (https://www.alpinelinux.org/) perhaps, I've used that before.
