New Member !

Hello All,

I was recently working on a new computer, and ran into some issues, so I was looking for some support. I found a bunch of forums out there, but I chose this one, well because I love vBulletin, and will choose a well laid out vB forum over any other!

My name is Renae, I'm 23 and live in Dayton, OH. I have a BS in computer engineering technology and electronic technology. I went to University of Dayton. Now I work for a defense contractor in Dayton, and am an electrical test engineer. It's really fun and I enjoy it a lot. I've been doing a lot of software work lately, writing test scripts in Python. Which I've actually enjoyed a lot, which is suprising because I always said I hated code!

I really love nature and the outdoors. So when I'm not stuck in my window-less office, I like to be outside. I like bowling, hiking, road biking, mountain biking, darts, canoeing...and occasionally electronics, computers and gaming. I do really like putting in dimmer switches for some odd reason. Hope to get to know you all better.

Yeah! Welcome Renae. And that is certainly an interesting list of hobbies that you have - you must be almost as busy in your free time as when you're at work.

 

Welcome to Major Geeks.

Hi Renea and welcome.


Be careful telling people you're a girl, it's been a long time since some of us have seen or spoken to one.

 

Eh, i'm used to it. I'm an engineer. I work with only males!

 

Not only a window-less office....BUT!! Right now I'm in the lab which is cold enough to hang meat in...and since it's a classified environment....there's no windows here either. And in my office (though it is quite homey in there) is right below the kitchen upstairs. And I think its either the ice maker or the coffee machine...but every 20-30 minutes...I hear this peeing sound. No joke, it literally sounds like sombody is peeing in my office...but I'm kinda learned to tune it out now.

 

That makes sense.

You did say you worked with males.

 

I would hope I would realize that somebody was "watering my plants" if that were what was actually happening.

 

Hi there all,
I'm a new member but still havent worked out how to write a message to this forum Hope this one works. Could anyone tell me what a DAT file is please please please.
Thank you

 

A dat file can be anything, text, binary, graphic etc.

It depends on the parent program. A lot of programs, including Windows use dat files.

Most can be read using a text editor, like NotePad.
