My Ubuntu 16.04 system will show emojis up to Unicode 8.0, but not any higher versions of Unicode. How can I get Unicode 10.0 emojis, like the T. rex emoji, to show up in Chrome and GNOME Terminal?

Install the Twitter Color Emoji SVGinOT Font by opening a terminal (press Ctrl+Alt+T) and running:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:eosrei/fonts
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install fonts-twemoji-svginot

Then, reboot.
