Same with NTP surprisingly. Literally everything I have talks to a NTP server once in a while, but only Linux machines actually ask the network's NTP servers.

- tbyehl 7y agoLots of embedded Linux devices have hardcoded NTP servers. Was caught by surprise at this after I'd segregated a bunch of stuff to have no Internet access.
- Avamander 7y agoAbsolutely, but I found it surprising that even my Kindle contacts an NTP server, or that both Android and Apple phones do. Why don't they ask DHCP for a nice stratum 1 server instead, I don't know, maybe someone here does?
