On Windows, you can open the emoji picker with Win+. or Win+, (depending on locale iirc). Then just switch to the symbols tab by clicking the omega symbol and chose å
Alternatively, you can install PowerToys, which includes a quick accentuator tool.

Failing that win+r and type
charmap. You can browse symbols there.charmap.exe? Holy shit. Windows 95 called, but I didn’t have a 33.6k modem ready to answer.
I mostly just had the alt+whatever codes memorized when I was typing French or German, but I didn’t always have a numpad when I was using laptops away from home. I just ended up using charmap and never realized newer windows had any replacement (although I’m on mac for work and also use linux for both work and some home stuff now as well so not spending as much time in Windows).
Hold the
Combinekey (Linux-only, user-configurable, usuallyRCtrl) and pressatwice. OrCombine+a+*.Or get a laptop with a numpad. I am so used to
Alt+numthat I’d donate to someone to implement it in the Linuxlibinput, and I’m not alone.US international layout, or make a custom layout (KbdEdit is multiplatform but there’s free Linux programs to do it too)
It’s annoying to type in the terminal tho.

Because you would need to know the code for å in all kb layouts, on all OS’s, even in a bare terminal with no way to just open the emoji picker, with or without special keys and no clipboard. Of course, tab completion or globs may help you, but not in all cases.
Try to select blåhaj.txt in a dir with blåhaj.txt and blahaj.txt present. Easy, ls bl*haj.txt | grep -i blahaj.txt. Now with blåhaj.txt and bløhaj.txt. Not as easy anymore, but doable with tail -n1 or head -n1. Now do it consistently in a script. So you again need to single out the right string, or single char, and >> it into the script so you have the special char. Then you have a component that does not like certain special chars, so you need to escape it. All because one decided to use special chars as a file name/identifier. Using [a-zA-Z0-9-_.:;,]* would be so easy.

So, you create a file with the name containing å. Then you send it to another person. They want to handle it via the command line. Because it’s more efficient. So that person needs to know said information.

The fact they couldn’t type that one character, on the command line, without those special chars.
Noooooo what did you do to that poor shonky :ccc

TIL blahaj refers to a soft toy shark sold by IKEA.

blahaj, neatly in a sleeping bag, zipped up to their… chinjaw?
Withy some compression straps around it to make it look smaller in places
I find it very appropriate this post came out of lemmy.zip
if you suck in the air of a blåhaj do you become a cute trans girl 🤔
