> you wear Lederhosen on such occasions Even worse, because of my mixed heritage I always start the day dancing Dabke in Lederhosen :) Anyway thank you so much, gingerbread, nuts and apples spiced with hot candle wax and spruce needles are among my favorites in German cuisine :) Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) see Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply]

That third emoji is very new. I just see (rough ASCII-art rendition): +---+ \|01F\| \|ADA\| +---+ It's `U+01FADA GINGER ROOT` and part of the Unicode `v15.0` release (the latest is `v15.1`). I have the latest Firefox running on the latest Win10 (I just updated everything) so I'm guessing I simply don't have an appropriate font. I imagine others are in the same boat. There are minimal details in the Unicode PDF Code Chart "Symbols and Pictographs Extended-A - Range: 1FA70-1FAFF". Perl can provide information on all properties with: `$ perl -E ' use Unicode::UCD "charprops_all"; use Data::Dump; dd charprops_all("U+01FADA"); '` [download] Perl `v5.38.0` added support for Unicode `v15.0` (see "perl5380delta: Unicode 15.0 is supported"). Those who haven't upgraded to `v5.38.0` yet, won't be able to use the code above. Here's a few selected lines of the output: `{ Age => "V15_0", ... Block => "Symbols_And_Pictographs_Extended_A" +, ... Emoji_Presentation => "Yes", ... Name => "GINGER ROOT", ... }` [download] The full output takes up a couple of screenfuls on my 27" monitor. I've put it in the spoiler for anyone interested. { Age => "V15_0", Alphabetic => "No", ASCII_Hex_Digit => "No", Bidi_Class => "Other_Neutral", Bidi_Control => "No", Bidi_Mirrored => "No", Bidi_Mirroring_Glyph => "", Bidi_Paired_Bracket => "", Bidi_Paired_Bracket_Type => "None", Block => "Symbols_And_Pictographs_Extended_A" +, Canonical_Combining_Class => "Not_Reordered", Case_Folding => "\x{1FADA}", Case_Ignorable => "No", Cased => "No", Changes_When_Casefolded => "No", Changes_When_Casemapped => "No", Changes_When_Lowercased => "No", Changes_When_NFKC_Casefolded => "No", Changes_When_Titlecased => "No", Changes_When_Uppercased => "No", Composition_Exclusion => "No", Dash => "No", Decomposition_Mapping => "\x{1FADA}", Decomposition_Type => "None", Default_Ignorable_Code_Point => "No", Deprecated => "No", Diacritic => "No", East_Asian_Width => "Wide", Emoji => "Yes", Emoji_Component => "No", Emoji_Modifier => "No", Emoji_Modifier_Base => "No", Emoji_Presentation => "Yes", Equivalent_Unified_Ideograph => "", Extended_Pictographic => "Yes", Extender => "No", Full_Composition_Exclusion => "No", General_Category => "Other_Symbol", Grapheme_Base => "Yes", Grapheme_Cluster_Break => "ExtPict_XX", Grapheme_Extend => "No", Hangul_Syllable_Type => "Not_Applicable", Hex_Digit => "No", Hyphen => "No", ID_Continue => "No", ID_Start => "No", Identifier_Status => "Restricted", Identifier_Type => "Not_XID", Ideographic => "No", IDS_Binary_Operator => "No", IDS_Trinary_Operator => "No", Indic_Positional_Category => "NA", Indic_Syllabic_Category => "Other", ISO_Comment => "", Join_Control => "No", Joining_Group => "No_Joining_Group", Joining_Type => "Non_Joining", Line_Break => "Ideographic", Logical_Order_Exception => "No", Lowercase => "No", Lowercase_Mapping => "\x{1FADA}", Math => "No", Name => "GINGER ROOT", Name_Alias => "", NFC_Quick_Check => "Yes", NFD_Quick_Check => "Yes", NFKC_Casefold => "\x{1FADA}", NFKC_Quick_Check => "Yes", NFKD_Quick_Check => "Yes", Noncharacter_Code_Point => "No", Numeric_Type => "None", Numeric_Value => "NaN", Pattern_Syntax => "No", Pattern_White_Space => "No", Prepended_Concatenation_Mark => "No", Present_In => "15.0", Quotation_Mark => "No", Radical => "No", Regional_Indicator => "No", Script => "Common", Script_Extensions => "Common", Sentence_Break => "Other", Sentence_Terminal => "No", Simple_Case_Folding => "\x{1FADA}", Simple_Lowercase_Mapping => "\x{1FADA}", Simple_Titlecase_Mapping => "\x{1FADA}", Simple_Uppercase_Mapping => "\x{1FADA}", Soft_Dotted => "No", Terminal_Punctuation => "No", Titlecase_Mapping => "\x{1FADA}", Unicode_1_Name => "", Unified_Ideograph => "No", Uppercase => "No", Uppercase_Mapping => "\x{1FADA}", Variation_Selector => "No", Vertical_Orientation => "Upright", White_Space => "No", Word_Break => "ExtPict_XX", XID_Continue => "No", XID_Start => "No", } [download] — Ken	[reply] [d/l] [select]

For me it's the first emoji for LAN which doesn't display. Anyway, if we really want to reinvent Chinese with emoji hieroglyphs, than I'd rather go for 🛹🏘️ or 🫁 "Long" explanation My rather long (sic) family name Langsdorf translates to long-s-village (sic-sic) or more directly "long-s-thorp" German tends to introduce "s" as a connector in compound words (compare Saint PeterSburg°). Hence the first half ends on "GS" which is almost homophone to "X", and capital X was stylish in the age of LaTeX and Linux and Unix. So LanX is pronounced like "lungs" with an "angry voice" aka standard German accent. Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) see Wikisyntax for the Monastery} °) Tsar Peter (the Great) wanted to attach his empire closer to Europe, so he chose a German name for his new capital. Most cities on the Baltic sea where heavily Hanseatic anyway. The Russian version is "Sankt-Peterburg" (Санкт-Петербургъ) without s.	[reply]

It's interesting what is and isn't displayed across applications. Here's the two lots of characters: $ perl -E ' use utf8; use Unicode::UCD "charinfo"; for my $code_point (map ord, qw{🖧 ❎ 🫚 🌰 🍎 😋 🎄 🛹 🏘️ 🫁}) { say "U+", sprintf("%X\t", $code_point), charinfo($code_point)->{name}; } ' U+1F5A7 THREE NETWORKED COMPUTERS U+274E NEGATIVE SQUARED CROSS MARK U+1FADA GINGER ROOT U+1F330 CHESTNUT U+1F34E RED APPLE U+1F60B FACE SAVOURING DELICIOUS FOOD U+1F384 CHRISTMAS TREE U+1F6F9 SKATEBOARD U+1F3D8 HOUSE BUILDINGS U+1FAC1 LUNGS Update: A missing space between `GINGER ROOT` and `CHESTNUT` in the `for` list resulted in `CHESTNUT` not appearing in the output. I've fixed this. I said characters, instead of emoji, because the one you can't see isn't an emoji. Also, as it was released with Unicode `v7.0`, I'm a little surprised you don't have a font to render it. `$ perl -E ' use Unicode::UCD "charprop"; say "$_:\t", charprop("U+1F5A7", $_) for qw{Age Name Emoji}; ' Age: V7_0 Name: THREE NETWORKED COMPUTERS Emoji: No` [download] I understand how `THREE NETWORKED COMPUTERS`, as a LAN, fits with your username. You've explained about `LUNGS`. I'm baffled by `SKATEBOARD` and `HOUSE BUILDINGS`. All of those characters (except `GINGER ROOT`, as described above) are rendered for me by Firefox. The characters `GINGER ROOT` and `LUNGS` are not rendered in my Cygwin CLI; they appear as a question mark inside a square. Perl (I'm using `v5.39.3`) obviously understands both. When I copy-paste that code into this response, `LUNGS` is rendered correctly. Cygwin was also updated to the latest; at the same time that I updated Firefox, Thunderbird and Win10 earlier today. I would have thought that it could access the same fonts as the others. As I said, interesting how different applications deal with some of these characters. — Ken	[reply] [d/l] [select]
