unicode proposal: you should be able to send an emoji with a specifier for which image set and version you want.
sometimes you want to send 😔, and you don't mind which version is displayed. but sometimes you want to send 😔, and have it specifically be the Samsung TouchWiz 7.0 (2016) version.
no other iteration of 😔 captures the feeling of "sigh... if only my girlfriend Chiaki Nanami from Danganronpa 2 was real... then i could be her Ultimate Gamer Husband instead of studying for this lame physics exam..." quite like this one

New Guide: How to install extra software, apps and games on SteamOS and Steam Deck gamingonlinux.com/guides/view/…
How to install extra software, apps and games on SteamOS and Steam Deck
The Steam Deck with SteamOS (and other devices that will ship with SteamOS) use a locked-down filesystem, so installing extra software is a little different. Here's what you need to know in a simple to understand guide.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
Additionally, if someone wants to install multiple pieces of software at once, they can go on packagepicker.co and pick up what they want from the limited pool, the site will then generate a single command to run on the terminal (obligatory disclaimer to always be cautious of random scripts on the internet)
It's conceptually similar to Ninite on Windows

But also, are vaccines provided for free in the U.S.? Do you have to pay for them? If so, could many of those known as working poors be unable to afford them?
