About Me

This handsome young man is me

As you may have guessed, my name is Pablo, Pablo Portas López. I am 20 years old and I’m studying Computer Engineering at the Universidade da Coruña. Right now I’m on Erasmus in Sweden, at Linnaeus University, putting up with a bit of friaxe .

I’m a passionate man, I talk a lot, I like getting to know people, I enjoy travelling around this planet and, above all, I like trying to understand it. Cinema, computing and filloas are the things that make me happiest in the world 🌍.

My brief experience as a computer enthusiast is as follows:

  1. At 8 years old I started tinkering with my first computer, a Toshiba laptop with WindowsXP.

  1. At 10, my parents gave me my first laptop of my own, a red HP Pavilion, the same color as Lightning McQueen. It had the freshly released Windows 10 (rest in peace).

  2. At 11, my mum bought me, at my request, Minecraft Windows 10 Edition. The game that marked my life and gave me my nickname TeenBiscuits4371 (Xbox Live generated a random username the first time you played a game).

  1. At 13 I got my first and only Victory Royale in Fortnite.

  2. At 14 I bought my first Raspberry Pi (a 3B+) on which I installed Kodi to watch my entire anime collection acquired totally legally.

  1. At 16 I set up my first Linux server (a Dell PowerEdge T40), which I still maintain to this day.

  1. At 18, after surviving the ABAU university entrance exams, I earned a place at the Universidade da Coruña, where I study Computer Engineering and where I bought my Slimbook Executive, a Spanish laptop.

  1. At 20, I got an Erasmus place at Linnaeus University and I switched to Unix with my first MacBook.

  2. …
