Location has been super annoying for me in Fedora. Neither the weather nor the timezone automatically update for me. And I travel every week for work.

Didn’t beaconDB have a thing where their Go library was compromised for like a year, or am I thinking of another project? 😬

I think different, the project is something like 7 months old

If you’re thinking about the recent thing, the real Go library (boltdb/bolt) was not compromised at all. The malware was in a similarly named package (boltdb-go/bolt), this is called “typosquatting”.
