About Me
I am Neline, also known as Snicksie on the internet. At the moment I'm 19 years old. I'm studying informatics and have already some experience with developing and other stuff related to computers.
I started playing around with computers when I was 14. First I started simple, with HTML, CSS and other related stuff. A friend taught me something about PHP, so I started developing in PHP. After some time, I decided I wanted to use Ubuntu, so I started searching for information, installed an extra harddisk and installed Ubuntu as a dualboot. I rarely used windows anymore, so my next computer only had an Ubuntu installation.
Even though it sometimes was quite difficult for me to get everything working, I still prefered Ubuntu. After a time with a MacBook, which I named "coffeebook" after I spilled some coffee on it, I decided I wanted a full installation again. A virtual machine was not really what I wanted, so I tried to get everything working perfectly again. After a few installations my linux finally was working again and I like it!
