@vaporeon_ I love JavaScript, so delete this please

@vaporeon_ I love JavaScript, so delete this please

@wallhackio How do I deallocate memory / destroy an object in JavaScript? So that I can delete this?

@vaporeon_ npm install memory-management

@wallhackio Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

And in standard JavaScript? No NPM?

@vaporeon_ it was a joke lmao

@wallhackio But can you do any memory management in JavaScript?

};
