User:Pika Pikachu2005

Welcome to my Wikipedia user page

I'm Pikachu (on IRC, see labels above) and here's some of the things I like


 * Computers, mobile phones (or cellphones as people in the US call them), and some other aspects of ICT
 * Broadcast transmission towers (the one that fascinates me the most is the Emley Moor tower owned by Arqiva (formerly ntl (National Transcommunications Limited) but the ntl name does still exist) near Huddersfield, UK). The transmission mast that provides TV and radio reception to my area is Bilsdale.
 * CB Radio (I use a different nickname on there, yes it's Pokemon related but not Pikachu related)

I also have an ambition of being a radio DJ, just on a local station though, not a large national station

I own a number of computers and mobile phones, though i use only 3 computers and 2 phones at once:

Computers in use

 * Coolblue (my main computer, running Microsoft Windows 7
 * Xana (my server, running Ubuntu Linux, currently running Apache 2 Web server FTPd and Charybdis2 IRCD for AutIRC (my IRC network)(dismantled, backup is running on a retired laptop)
 * My laptop (Toshiba Satellite L300), running Microsoft Windows 7

Wikipedia articles of interest
1) A list of catastrophic collapses of radio masts and towers, note that only 2 UK entries are on this list, Emley Moor and Peterborough

2) The article about Minster Northallerton, the former station once broadcasting in Northallerton and covering the surrounding district, now replaced by Star Radio North East

3) The Star Trek article, one of the greatest Sci-Fi shows on Earth, written about here on Wikipedia with links to other articles listing characters and starships and whatever else

4) The Wikipedia article on the most insane, caravan-destroying science shows on earth, yes it's Brainiac: Science Abuse

5) The article on 'The Matrix' one of the greatest (in my opinion at least) films of all time, plus links to the articles on it's 2 sequels

That's it for now, more whenever
