Someone in another thread posted these smilies which appear to be Unicode or something.

I wonder if it's fixed. Now let's try some other characters:


No. It didn't work, so why does it work with 😠 and not the Ohm symbol?

Nice
So if we search Google for them with a highlight and right click:

We find all manner of symbols, in fact truck loads of stuff but no Ohms.

I've Google Ohms symbol, copied & pasted it:

$\Omega$

That doesn't work for me. I'm using my work's computer and the firewall blocks Latex. All I see is the code.

I see $\Omega$ too. To make it render you have to put backslashes in front of the dollars, like this:

Yes, that works!

According to Wikipedia. Omega has two Unicode points. I'll try them both by copying and pasting a section of the article:

"Unicode has a separate code point for the ohm sign (U+2126, ?), but it is included only for backward compatibility, and the Greek uppercase omega character (U+03A9, ?) is preferred"

No, neither work!
