I'm working on documenting some Python code with Sphinx and the Read the Docs theme. This theme uses a couple of Unicode "private use area" characters - U+F015 (house) and U+F06a (exclamation mark in circle). These characters are not rendering when I use Firefox to view my locally generated documentation (although they *are* rendered when I view RTD documentation online). These characters render just fine in Google Chrome, LibreOffice Writer, and KCharSelect, so I don't believe that I'm missing a font. Anyone have any idea what might be going on?
Well, I figured it out. The problem is yet another misguided, over- zealous "security" feature from Mozilla. https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/189yw74/strict_mode_prevents_loading_locallyinstalled/?rdt=35755 Ironically, one can disable "Enhanced Tracking Protection" for a web site, but the geniuses at Mozilla didn't think to provide a way to turn it of for *local* files (where it arguably should have never been enabled in the first place). So yet another poorly implemented browser "security" feature that requires me to make my system less secure in order to actually do anything.
