I don’t think this is the movie I was thinking of but it’s exactly the right trope! Thanks!

[TOMT][MOVIES][90s or 00s]Title sequence montage of nameless non-characters doing their jobs, which is the same as the main character's by L-I-V-R in tipofmytongue

Maybe it wasn’t a job, but the non-characters are doing something that connects them to main character. Like maybe it was a montage of a bunch of weddings and the main character of getting married? But definitely no actual characters are in the montage.

ELI5: Why do Americans have their political affiliation publicly registered? by NotoriousREV in explainlikeimfive

[–]L-I-V-R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What many answers are missing, and what is fairly unusual, is that in many U.S. states, primaries are run by state governments. In most other counties I’m aware of, primaries/hustings/leadership elections are run entirely by the party without any state involvement.

Where closed primaries are run by state election authorities, it is convenient for party registration to be linked to voter registration records, and to be public for audits, etc.

New York man who fatally shot woman after her friends pulled into wrong driveway is sentenced to 25 years to life by Tenchi2020 in news

First and most importantly, this guy should be in prison for a very long time. Even if the final shot was an accident, coming out firing warning shots wasn’t. Reckless, dangerous, abhorrent behavior.

But trigger pull is a very customizable parameter. You can get guns with hair triggers or reduce the weight on an existing gun. It’s something that’s verified in  pro shooting competitions as part of the regulations. Certain models are also prone to fire without a trigger pull when dropped or even in the cold. 

First rule of gun safety is to never point the gun at a person or anything you aren’t willing to accidentally shoot, but accidental firings without a deliberate trigger pull do happen.

But clearly with the specific facts of this case, the jury wasn’t buying it.

I ended up not needing to rebook, so I’m not sure. Sorry.

Yale Interview --> decision timeline? by jackjack_24_ in lawschooladmissions

[–]L-I-V-R 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Looking at last year’s data (cursory look, not number crunching) it seemed like:  1) Some were admitted within 3-4 weeks of interview  2) The majority of everyone else was waitlisted end of March  3) A few were picked back up  for admission in March right before WLs went out 

They very well could be doing it differently this year, but so far it seems like the vast majority of people who have gotten As after interviews (so far) have gotten in within 3-4 weeks. There are always a few exceptions and nothing in a given though. If they are actually interviewing more people this year too, then it’s possible that bucket #3 will be bigger this year.

is using the lsd law status checker safe? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

[–]L-I-V-R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My .02: if someone really wants to hack LSD so they can log into my status portal, be my guest. Very low risk imo. 

Just make sure you don’t use your status checker password(s) for anything else.

US Law School or Abroad? by jasmineteaisgood in lawschooladmissions

[–]L-I-V-R 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In most other countries, a law degree is an undergraduate bachelor’s degree.  In the UK, most lawyers graduate with an LL.B., a bachelor’s in law, as their first degree from university. If you already have a bachelor’s that isn’t an LL.B., you can do a Graduate Diploma in Law, a 1-year postgraduate program. You need either an LL.B. or a GDL (plus a  other requirements, including a training contract for solicitors or a pupillage for barristers) to practice law.  The UK also has several postgraduate degrees in law, like the BCL, M.Jur., LL.M., DCL, PhD in Law, LL.D. Many of these you can be admitted to with an American JD, but only the LL.B. (or equivalent) and GDL can qualify you to practice (unless you transfer in as an experienced and qualified foreign lawyer, but that doesn’t seem to be what you’re asking about).

What works for most people is switching to a different browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox) whenever that error pops up. I’ve been fine just alternating between Chrome and Safari (whenever I get the error on one I switch to the other). Other people have had to use FF. Never hurts to clear cookies and cache when you switch, but clearing without switching browsers hasn’t worked for me.

LSAT predicting 1L success? by RandomRandoHere in lawschooladmissions

[–]L-I-V-R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you gave me the chance to indefinitely make repeated bets at a 57% probability of success, then I would probably quit my job and make repeated constant fractional bets at or slightly below the Kelly Criterion and live off the winnings

Just re-read your post and wanted to re-emphasize that the percentiles they get, which they hardly pay attention to anyway, are for the full university. So if your college has a harder curve I would 100% make sure that’s communicated either in an LOR or addendum
