A: we need more than 16 bits so that we can truly be universal, and include Chinese.
B: uh, but the Chinese already have 16-bit fixed width encodings that work well for them, that are both simpler and more compact than your Chinese proposals.
A: Racist!
B: OK, fine, whatever.
A: adds upside-down text, Jewish plusses, ellipses, smileys, original pictographs of animals, left-wing political iconography, cancer, and more!
B: ... Well at least I can sort of pretend that this swastika is the Nazi one.

>>444 Very impressive trips! You definitely put some work into those. With trips like that you'll be going places, kiddo.
>>454 The article even implies that AppleTM (R) (C) has only some minor say in the decision of inclusion of new symbols but still makes it look like it will be Apple's fault.

Wow, most of the characters in OP became colored after last system update.
By the way, practically all of them are somehow related to normie life, while otaku cultire is not represented at all. I mena we need to propose all touhous to be included, or at least some popular anime waifus. May we start a petition or something?

That's because the people requesting new emojis are racist. Old emojis: race-agnostic; one emoji for all races New emojis: race-separating; one emoji for each race
All chars in >>1 except below, show as numbers in boxes. โบโโโคโโโกโโโโโโโโโโ >>1 Check your extended unicode plane support privilege
>>462 They all still show as boxes for me. There are better uses of disk space than for storing coloured variants of every fucking language in existence.
It would be convenient if you could put the Content-Type of the HTML file right in the HTML file itself, using some kind of special tag. Of course this drove purists crazy... how can you read the HTML file until you know what encoding it's in?! Luckily, almost every encoding in common use does the same thing with characters between 32 and 127, so you can always get this far on the HTML page without starting to use funny letters: <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> But that meta tag really has to be the very first thing in the <head> section because as soon as the web browser sees this tag it's going to stop parsing the page and start over after reinterpreting the whole page using the encoding you specified.

For this reason, smart people invented Unicode and UTF-8, and all you need to do is to say: From today on I will
write all texts in UTF-8 not accept any file which is not UTF-8 encoded. will cancel all social relationships with people that supply alledgedly UTF-8 encoded files, when it turns out that the file starts with a so called "byte-order-mark" (BOM). Let's make people that stick to 40 year old proprietary encodings a minority, and even giants like Microsoft will be forced to give up on their bad habits! r

So, have they added a symbol for a graffiti penis yet? Yes, it's childish, but it also has comedic (or even religious/mythical) meaning in virtually any culture on this planet. When you draw a smiley on a wall, anyone can understand it. The same goes for a penis. Anyone looking at a penis on a wall understands it. It is a universal symbol for: comedy, religion, even society (for our modern societies: usually oppression by men). So how come there's no glyph for it, when it is such a universal piece of communication? I say boo to the unicode consortium for missing this obvious necessity. And no, the hieroglyph for penis (U+130B8 -- ๐ธ) is not enough because it has specific and not universal meaning.

>>475 If you watch the video where he explains how it's made (spoilers: it's awful) he says that he doesn't have any CS education whatsoever and just ``bodges'' things together until they work. And that that's also sort of how emoji were made in the first place.
G*d i love emoji isn't it awesome even FUCKING PLAIN TEXT CAN BREAK NOW THANKS UNICODE CONSORTIUM FOR BRINGING THE CLUSTERFUCK RIGHT TO ME., I DIDNT EVEN HAVE TO ASK

We're going full circle back to heiroglyphs and primitive pictographs.

Drew Raines, Software Developer: I adopted person with folded hands, type-6 as homage to the four pair in my home. This image embodies two beautiful things: transracial adoption and prayer. I grew up a white boy in the American south. My children are black Africans. Adoption has allowed me to incarnate into the black experience. I watch as they get disciplined before their white peers. I educate them how to talk to the police for fear they wonโt come home one night when theyโre teenagers. But I have hope in the God who adopted me, who promised to proclaim liberty to the captives and set at liberty those who are oppressed (Lk 4). While we wait for that day, he told us to pray. Hate is not someone elseโs problem. Itโs in me. Left to my own, I wouldnโt need any lessons on how to judge people or think Iโm better than they are. A hater like I am cannot just talk to a perfect God with impunity. Jesus Christ incarnated into the human experience, bearing the punishment that I deserve for rejecting God and hating my neighbor, and defeated the domain of darkness whence all hate comes so that, in part, I could pray. Itโs soil in which I plant my hope that his promise is true. So I do it. For my family, for my neighbor, for you.
You don't realize it, but we already live under communism and have since the 1960s. The people* are already in full control of the means of production.
