gollark: I don't think there's a reason they couldn't other than bad performance. Which might require you to turn down quality, increase bitrate, decrease resolution/framerate or whatever else.
gollark: I think the LattePanda ones are just x86.
gollark: You need the URL-encoded-body parsing middleware, basically.
gollark: Something like that anyway.
gollark: Well, if you're using Express, then:```javascriptapp.use(express.urlencoded())app.post("/", (req, res) => res.send(JSON.stringify(req.body)))```ought to work.
