Leonardo probably didn't have a last name.

During the modern era many cultures around the world adopted family names, particularly for administrative reasons, especially during the age of European expansion and particularly since 1600.

Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci (15 April 1452 – 2 May 1519)

thanks for the reply

I'm not prepared to deal with and breakup these fights, so we just opted to not have it in this community to keep people happy.

understandable.

i don't think that there's enough interest to create another community. "We" can pin an exceptional thread maybe, where people can post promptly generated content and antiAI can just ignore or tolerate that 1 thread. Comments wouldn't pop up on their home as a new post and they can just 👎 once and be done with it.

In 1930, László Bíró, a Hungarian-Argentine inventor observed children playing with marbles in a puddle, noticing that the marbles left a trail of water in their wake. Inspired by this observation, he conceived of a mechanism for a pen that used a ball-shaped metal nib to place ink onto a page.

:)

A ballpoint pen is widely referred to as a "biro" in many countries, including the UK, Ireland, Australia and Italy. Although the word is a registered trademark, in some countries it has become genericised.

 

In 1975, television commercials told potential consumers to "flick your BIC", a slogan that is still used.

This is a list of units of measurement based on human body parts or the attributes and abilities of humans (anthropometric units). It does not include derived units further unless they are also themselves human-based. These units are thus considered to be human scale and anthropocentric. A cross-cultural review of body-based measurement systems has found such units to be ubiquitous worldwide.

 

A carrying pole, also called a shoulder pole or a milkmaid's yoke, is a yoke of wood or bamboo, used by people to carry a load.

Abya Yala (from the Kuna language: 'Abiayala', meaning "mature land") is a neologism used by some indigenous peoples of the Americas to refer to the American continent. The term is used by some indigenous organisations, institutions, and movements as a symbol of identity and respect for the land one inhabits. The increasing usage of the term can be viewed in the context of decolonization, as it serves to create an understanding that "land and discourse, territorio y palabra, cannot be disjointed" and a geography in which a struggle for sovereignty and resistance occurs on an everyday basis for Indigenous communities.

Des voitures autonomes arrivent sur les routes d'Amérique du Nord et d'Europe. Une révolution qui génère de nombreuses questions éthiques. À qui appartiennent les données collectées ? Que choisira l'IA en cas de collision inévitable ? Qui est responsable ? Les scientifiques estiment urgent d'organiser un débat citoyen et ont mis en place pour cela une plateforme, la « Moral Machine ».

Cryptozoology (en.wikipedia.org)
submitted 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) by merde@sh.itjust.works to c/wikipedia@lemmy.world
 

Cryptozoology is a pseudoscience and subculture that searches for and studies unknown, legendary, or extinct animals whose present existence is disputed or unsubstantiated, particularly those popular in folklore, such as Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, Yeti, the chupacabra, the Jersey Devil, or the Mokele-mbembe. Cryptozoologists refer to these entities as cryptids, a term coined by the subculture. Because it does not follow the scientific method, cryptozoology is considered a pseudoscience by mainstream science: it is neither a branch of zoology nor of folklore studies.
