Why is my PC connected to a possible Kubernetes server?

Hello there. I ran netstat from wine cmd.exe and as you can see below, my PC seems to be connected to an IP that has Kubernetes in the hostname? Why is this so? I don’t recall using any Kubernetes service.

Using Ubuntu 24.04 dev branch.

It isn’t connected to a Kubernetes server. That is discourse.ubuntu.com and 443 is of course SSL.

$ nslookup discourse.ubuntu.com
Server: 192.168.68.1
Address: 192.168.68.1#53

OH! It is so obvious in hindsight that I feel extremely stupid for not thinking of it.

I apologize for the trouble. Thank you very much for your reply.
