Is a TI-84 Evo Jailbreak Even Plausible?

I'm not very knowledgeable about jailbreaking calculators, so I'm asking y'all. Is a jailbreak for the TI-84 Evo that lets us run assembly programs even plausible? If so, what might the exploit be targeting?
nice try TI

personally, I wouldn't even be surprised if someone manages to crack this thing, considering Arm ASM (I still believe deep down inside its Risc-V 🥹) is much more known then (e)z80 ASM, so yeah.

As many people have said already, let's just wait and see. You are not the only one eager to figure this out.

Would you be so kind as to explain, at last, what sense it would have made for TI to have cornered themselves into a less popular architecture with worse tooling, when TI is already a large maker of ARM-based solutions ? 😉
Also take into account the fact that the Evo has been years in the making, so assuming making a RV32-based platform makes sense even nowadays, it made less sense when the decision of making the Evo was made...

Its called coping

If it is made, it better be called rEVOluTion. I feel like it fits with the theme from previous jailbreaks.
Its confirmed that the Evo is a 32-bit machine. (Not sure this is news)
Hmm, if they use Standard Unix Time, will the calculator crash in the year 2038?

Is time stored on unix time or "TI time"?
