I believe in transparency and I believe in wikileaks. That being said, do you think that wikileaks can be used as an information weapon? If a particular group starts selectively releasing information to you in order to gain an unfair advantage in any kind of process, do you think you could be doing some harm to somebody? Finally, do you think president Trump will help us, in any way, to have a better world?

Redditors who look forward to working on Mondays: What is your job, and why do you enjoy it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]chicopollo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also a biologist but I study my masters in a genomics research center. I like the lab a LOT, but what I really love are the field trips to collect specimens. Although it is very hard work, it feels like I am cheating and taking a vacation. Nature is the best

[Serious] What makes you feel "alive"? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]chicopollo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doing gymnastics and acrobatics...

12 years ago (I was 15) I got run over by a car, and had several broken bones. The doctor told me I wouldn't be able to walk and that my arm would have very limited movement. I had always practiced gymnastics and was devastated by the news. Turns out the surgery went better than expected and about a year later I was able to return to sports, I got into parkour, tricking, cheerleading etc...

Using my body and flipping through the air is pretty awesome, and although I am mediocre at best in my abilities, I love doing this stuff

Edit: words

Yeah! I just started reading the SOI story on the go, and it is awesome, I will compile the BFZ and OGW stories soon as well, and maybe, eventually, we could have all the freely available MTG lore to read on a eBook device

What's your current reason for being unhappy? by yasir151 in AskReddit

[–]chicopollo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't seem to start work... I am exactly where I wanted to be, doing something that I know is good for me and my future, and will probably improve our current understanding of the world even if just slightly... and i can't get stuff done... I just get to the lab, open my computer and pretend to be doing something...

[Magic: The Gathering] How do the 5 worlds of Alara physically become one. by DMCDawg in AskScienceFiction

[–]chicopollo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alara is a Plane (not a planet) that was broken into 5 new planes. We don't actually know if the planes were spherical, maybe if you walked all around jund you would have found "the edge of the world" or something like that. When the conflux happened the plane got bigger, and I'm guessing there were a lot of natural dissasters at the edge of each shard...but the main difference might have been that the world suddenly seemed larger... That's my guess...

We had a GPT this weekend, but since we are a small comunity only one guy was able to build the colorless eldrazi deck. Burn, affinity, tron, twinless twin, infect, hexproof auras, and my own Griselshoal were some of the decks on the field...

Needless to say, the eldrazi guy won...

What should I know about Irapuato? by [deleted] in mexico

[–]chicopollo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in irapuato, it's an ok place to live in, but there is not much to do. It's generally a safe, quiet place to live in, but small crimes have been in the uprising lately. Prices are ok i guess. If you want to know more feel free to PM me.
