gollark: There's a function to "blit" images onto canvases (canves?) which can also upscale them a bit, but there doesn't *seem* to be a way to make it uses pixelated upscaling instead of some weird antialiasing algorithm.

gollark: It's quite hard to make browsers actually do integer scaling in some situations.
gollark: That'll be the problem then. CraftOS-PC seems to do pixel-by-pixel-ish rendering.
