Therefore the command is basically just asking very nicely, hoping to get one's way
edit. source: dude just trust me
But I bet if you said "pwease emoji" or "bottom emoji", much of the same group would probably get it.
Though maybe "pwease" would this and the fingers.
Yeah, I don’t think I’m going to be calling it that in the morning standups.
I'm on the spectrum, and I can't tell 99% of these things apart. Looks like a sad face to me. no different then the 500 other sad face emoji's I find. I'll stick with =(
Edit: ok apparently this is indeed the placeholder for missing emoji in Firefox for Android at least.
If it's any consolation, I don't think anyone could infer that from the emoji itself. The meaning is like a subculture's slang.
I don't use emojis, so I only know the very basic ones (which I consider to be obfuscated emoticons).
It is pretty obvious that it is a face doing the sad puppy eyes, like the one a young niece might do after I refuse to buy her some ice cream. I didn't even know it's meant to be underground, impenetrable slang.
Anyway, this is one reason why I prefer images and anigifs for expressing emotion in chats.
Someone linked this above, which has the various versions: https://emojipedia.org/pleading-face/
The Twitter version of it is what I'm seeing from this blog (Firefox on Ubuntu), which to me does look a lot more like "exasperated eyeroll" than "puppy-dog-eyes pleading".
If it's any consolation, I'm not, and I don't know exactly what a lot of the face-emojis are supposed to be expressing unless I see a text representation of them or otherwise have them explained.
I don’t know if that’ll help you (or anyone), and I have other problems with meatspace facial expressions (partial face blindness, probably partly attributable to finding eye contact uncomfortable; although weirdly enough trying to “get” emojis has helped on both these fronts to some small extent). So … idk if this will help but I took all this time typing it so here we are.
This depends a lot on emoji font. Apple's 3D-ish, highly colorful, rasterized emoji are very difficult to discern at small sizes, for example, unless you already know what they are.
More stylized emoji fonts, like EmojiOne or emoji that are drawn basically the same way as text glyphs, like in Symbola, are way, way easier to read, especially at small sizes.
If you're on an Apple device, though, you're close to fucked, since the operating system just ignores your font choices when it comes to emoji. The best you can do is carefully hack the actual files for the Apple Color Emoji font on macOS, which requires you to disable SIP and will cause lots of app crashes if you do it wrong. But if you're using an OS that has some respect for you and your choices, try a different emoji font!

Reading package lists... DoneUntil I read that comment I was having real trouble figuring out WTF it had to do with running commands. I thought it might be some practical joke tool that automatically modifies your commands such that they'll make you sad when they run.
Don’t get why we have to bust out all the cringe internet lingo to describe something that you see in that venerable “real world”.
[EDIT] I mean I see it once someone points it out, but that'd have been lucky to make my top-5 guesses otherwise.
No idea what that's supposed to mean
I remember a few years back, there was a problem where Apple implemented "GRINNING FACE" in such a way that Apple users interpreted it as a sarcasm indicator, but most others would look just like a standard smiling face, leading to quite a number of awkward exchanges when non-Apple users would read things such as "Yes, let's burn it all down :)" instead of "Yes, let's burn it all down :|"
Disregarding the "browser" column (could be anything, it's what your browser renders the text as), only the Twitter font has the "looking up" variant that you think is normal. I'd rather say the straight-ahead look is the norm for most font designers when interpreting the "FACE WITH PLEADING EYES" description of the character.

To me at 2–3 mm it looked more like sleep deprived baggy eyelids (or maybe candy corn eyes, but what does that mean?). I read the whole post thinking the program was named after exhaustion, not pleading.
I just polled the room and most guesses were that it’s sadness/sorrow.
