Drake lost a rap battle so badly, he's filing lawsuits.
  • Some few states allow you to take the exam without any eduction requirements. California is one of them. But these places have the hardest bar exams.

    Also foreign lawyers can sit for US bar exams after doing only a one year bridge LLM degree in U.S. law which is offered by most ABA accredited law schools in states where there is an education requirement.

  • There is no ABA accredited law school in the United States that does not require the completion of a baccalaureate level education prior to attending. You need to confirm completion of such a degree before they will finalize your admission. If you are admitted as an undergrad and fail to finish your undergraduate degree they will revoke your admission or at the very least postpone it until you obtain a bachelor's degree.

  • I assume she's trying to pass in California which is one of the very few states that let you sit for the bar exam without a JD from an accredited law school or any degree at all. In exchange for allowing that California also has the hardest bar exam of any state in the union.

    Also lawyers don't just go to four years of college. They have to do that and get a degree in any subject and then attend law school which in the US is only ever a postgraduate program which requires a bachelor's degree as a prerequisite. And even those who complete both of those levels of education often fail the California bar exam multiple times.

    Self study in comparison would be nearly impossible and the only way to actually succeed would probably be to apprentice under a practicing lawyer for many years, learn the trade that way, take an exam prep course and then maybe be able to pass. Granted in the olden days lawyers like Abraham Lincoln didn't have any degree either and they were usually admitted to the bar after this type of apprenticeship.

  • Open source is a fire-hose of value...
  • You can always release your software under the GPL and charge a licensing fee for an alternative proprietary license. Even the FSF and Richard Stallman are okay with that and it can absolutely be a viable and ethical business model.

  • Now GOP Senators Want Another Trump Nominee’s Full FBI File
  • Real life is not like TV. High quality counterfeit papers that stand up to scrutiny are very hard to get. The only way to get ones that are guaranteed to work is by having someone at the state department who can issue them or buying them from someone with those kind of connections. And the odds are good that the fads have honeypots set up to catch people trying to get fake documents.

  • He did the right thing at the cost of his own safety and wellbeing. If that's not a hero I don't know what is.

    At the same time he basically had to cooperate with the Russians because they tend to torture and kill those who don't.

  • An awkward reunion
  • Nope. That was the whole point of having force ghosts as a plot point. Anakin fell to the dark side to try and save Padme and live his ideal life but the tools he needed to save her and cheat death were only possible through the light side all along.

    Palpatine or more correctly, Darth Sidious, lied. The dark side itself has no means of living forever in the force or healing someone using the force. Those are fundamentally light side abilities which is why they perpetually eluded the Sith. It's the reason why Sidious had to turn to bioengineering to find a way to make clones that retained his M counts and which he could transfer his consciousness into via the dark side.

    I get the feeling that a lot of viewers miss the irony of that whole thing. If Anakin had been wiser or his teachers more empathetic and less dogmatic he would never have fell to the dark side and would not have been susceptible to Darth Sidious's manipulation.

  • Uses for a SBC (When You Already Have an x86 Mini-PC?)
  • The LattePanda Mu is configurable and can operate on as little as 6W up to 35W depending on your use case. The much more affordable Radxa X4 can operate on as little as 18W up to 25W if you need to power peripherals via USB.

    Both use an Intel Processor N100 SoC which is surprisingly powerful and efficient given that the Processor N series is the new branding for what used to be called Celeron.

    The prices are also competitive. The X4 for example sells for exactly the same price as the Raspberry Pi 5 with the same amount of memory at every memory capacity tier while having a CPU that's twice as powerful and compatible with way more software and OSes and a GPU that is absurdly more powerful and fully publicly documented such that there are open source drivers for every OS under the sun.

    As an OS developer both professionally and outside of work I have to say I really despise non-x86 platforms and ARM in particular for how fragmented they are and their vendors' utter disregard for any form of standardization at the platform, firmware, or peripheral levels. That's why I'm really thankful that devices like these exist and are affordable.
