It's basically an infomercial at this point...
I'd agree about the database probably not being copyright, but I was more talking about getting access to the music to convert in the first place.
Can't go wrong with ol Firefox
From my understanding the "what song is playing" apps/services essentially have a big database of music stored in a special hash function. When you record the music it converts it into a hash, then compares it to the database.
Could these databases and algorithms be open source? Absolutely. Would it be really hard or expensive to maintain the database distribution or hosting? Definitely. Would music rights holders allow an open source project to have access to their music libraries to put into the database? Probably not... I would think that the services that do this have big agreements with rights holders that open source would not be able to get.
Do you have a link to the driver? I can't see one that big on the Realtek site (but I didn't look that hard). I found one from Intel that's 663mb and a Dell one that's 285mb. Both are still pretty big. I downloaded the Intel one and it looks like there are many different drivers in there, but not 600mb worth, the big parts are part of Intel smart sound technology.
I signed up for JetLag. The other great creators are a great bonus.
Firefox ♥️
The problem is that unlike a lot of other ads YouTube serves its ads from YouTube.com and because of SSL PiHole can only act on YouTube.com as a whole, so there's no way to block just the ads without blocking all of the site.
Oh-oh someone might have configured caching wrong...
Like what happened to Steam in 2015: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/steam-caching-error-leads-to-account-disclosure/

New Kagi user here too, been very happy so far. Though it turns out I do a lot of searching and blew through the 300 searches in the $5 plan in like 2 weeks...
