What player do you have? you can get tools for the ipod to get the music off pf it. For iPhone and iPod Touch, it is possible to SSL into the player and find where it stores the music on the OS, then transfer it across.

EphPod lets you sync from iPod to PC.
Well, at least pull files from iPod to PC through drag-and-drop.

EDIT: Weird... the page didn't refresh showing there were other posts before I posted.
I blame Ubuntu and its crapiness. ;)

I have no clue what I'm doing when it comes to installing Windows XP... it's not easy like everything else. So, I might have just lost everything but Windows XP... that would be a fkn bitch.

Well, I guess all that gloating sent a bunch of bad karma back towards me. :/

Because I just completely raped my computer... XP overwrote everything on every partition. Extremely stupid installation process. On top of that, I couldn't get any of the drivers to work because it was a x32 OS on a x64 System.

Then, I found out that DELL didn't send me a Windows Vista Re-Installation CD with my computer. So, I have to call them and get them to send me one.

So, now I'm going to just completely delete all partitions but the main one and install Windows 7 as my main (and only) OS until Vista arrives in the mail. :cry: :cry:

Silly childrens and their iPod song ripper programs :D Just show hidden files and folders on your ipod from Windows and open iPod_Control. Theres a folder named music, and little folders in there that have very odd names. Copy out and put onto PC and the ID3 tags are still intact.

I don't like Lortab. It makes me feel really dizzy and confused.
It sucks. I just feel down the stairs going up, it was lame. I think I took them too fast. Not doing that again.

That's why they made Flex.
It's just flash without the drawing tools and more powerful coding tools, along with support for easily importing flash and other adobe files.

Using the WACOM mouse takes a bit of getting used to.
Up and down on the tablet is up and down for the mouse, rather than being relative to the mouse's rotation.

I had a direct flight from Atlanta, GA to Omaha, NE yesterday. I left at 11am EST, got in at ~1pm CST. I had one checked bag, and it didn't come out on the baggage claim area, so I went to the baggage services and gave the lady my claim number. She said it didn't get on the same flight as me and would be getting in later. 6pm later. Not like I can just wait around for five hours in an airport (especially since I had a predetermined ride home time, so I couldn't stick around even if I wanted to). I gave the lady my shipping info and she said my bag would arrive at around 8pm.

9:30pm, still nothing. My dad called the airport baggage service and they said it had missed the flight that would have originally got it there at about 6pm and wouldn't be getting in until at least 8 fucking am and they'd get it to me before noon. At 12:34am I get a call saying "we now have your bag and will ship it to you". So I assume this means "we'll ship it to you tomorrow". No. They called me at fucking 3:35am, left me no voicemail and apparently decided it'd be a good idea to leave my fucking luggage on the sidewalk outside the house. Bear in mind this had my computer (sure it's old, but still), a Leatherman tool, and plenty of clothes and miscellaneous cables. So now my luggage has all these stains all over it, and the handle you use to drag it behind you is dented in (I have no fucking idea how, it was down the entire time) so extending/retracting is a bitch.

Needless to say, this some ol' bullshit.

I was listening to the radio earlier, when a familiar sound came on.

The Numa Numa Song.

I was ecstatic, and all like, "hell yeah, numa," when I learned that a rapper had used the song as a prelude to his own!

Now I'm, "Oh hell NO. YOU DID NOT." I am PISSED.
