Haha no problem. We all are nerds around here, otherwise we'd probably be using Instagram and TikTok (and Reddit).

Funny back story: I first learned about Unicode around 2013 - 15 (I always judge those wrong in terms of when I started using certain apps/sites)... Back then people would start commenting shit on YouTube using emoji but Firefox hadn't introduced emoji support yet, causing them to be displayed as Unicode strings which lead to comments looking like this: "Hahaha, haven't laughed like this in ages U+1F602 Best video ever U+2764"

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
