don't tell me what I can't do!
i wonder what will break in bad ways if i feed it emoji? (a few things do for sure)
@katex
Try it with hostname
@dittoslash @katex ...tbh, there is a standard way to do *that*, but I'm guessing 99% of things on the console just won't handle it (punycode IDNs).
@bhtooefr @dittoslash behavior seems very inconsistent! the host program decodes IDN when printing output but doesn't accept emoji as an argument
@bhtooefr @dittoslash most random network programs seem to reject emoji hostname arguments, some will use it as a binary argument (without IDN encoding)
@bhtooefr @dittoslash wget accepts emoji tho
