UDP by itself has no state management, but some protocols will do state management at higher levels while using UDP as the transport

There is some interoperability with windows domains for bigger distros like RHEL and Ubuntu (there are even Ubuntu specific admx templates iirc). Check out SSSD

Hate to be that guy, but localhost is 127.0.0.1, not 172.0.0.1 (which is actually a public IP address)

The most widely used operating systems in the world are based on unix/linux. Android (the most used OS in the world), MacOS, iOS, ESXi (as well as most hypervisors that aren't hyper-v) are all based on Linux/Unix. That's not even mentioning routers, switches, load balancers, and other high performance networking equipment. Other critical internet infrastructure (like root DNS servers) are all based on Unix or Unix-derivitives.

Just because it's not a widely used desktop OS doesn't mean that Linux/unix aren't relevant.

Not sure if you're being serious or not, but I've personally had very little issue with gaming on Linux. To the Unix/Linux folks, windows 11 feels like a trash heap of bugs and blue screen crashes that suck.

To be fair though: Desktop Linux isn't for everyone. Making generalized statements about Linux is silly when you aren't a Linux user. Feel free to keep doing it, though. And if this was bait: 10/10

The song is "Time" by Pink Floyd for anyone that doesn't get the reference. If you like that song, Dark Side of the Moon is definitely worth a listen

I don't have much experience in the realm of gpg. My experience is mostly with TLS. From what I know, if you're doing client authentication, you encrypt your message with your private key, and then the public key on a cert is used for validating that the message actually came from you.

I think code signing is similar to client auth, but not positive. Again, I use TLS, but I'm not a professional

Edit:

What I found from Wikipedia:

The client sends a CertificateVerify message, which is a signature over the previous handshake messages using the client's certificate's private key. This signature can be verified by using the client's certificate's public key. This lets the server know that the client has access to the private key of the certificate and thus owns the certificate.
