gollark: I mean, at some point you would just have to shove a JS interpreter on an actual CPU on board.
gollark: It's also practically impossible because JS is too dynamic (`eval`, `new Function`, `fn.toSource()`, the various `call`y methods, whatever is going on with empty slots in arrays, the ability to set properties on arrays too).
