"The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) warned that #GPS deices might experience issues over the weekend because of a timing bug impacting Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers running the GPS Daemon ( #GPSD ) software." https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/technology/cisa-gps-software-bug-may-cause-unexpected-behavior-this-sunday/
Put another way, #GPS (US) basically broken. There are alternatives to it. https://www.gizmodo.com.au/2021/10/a-gps-based-bug-could-roll-back-your-devices-to-2002/ #gpsd
"Come Sunday, October 24, 2021, those using applications that rely on #gpsd for handling time data may find that they're living 1,024 weeks – 19.6 years – in the past." https://www.theregister.com/2021/10/19/gpsd_bug_reset/
"Critical Infrastructure (CI) owners and operators, and other users who obtain Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) from #GlobalPositioningSystem (GPS) devices, should be aware of a #GPS Daemon (GPSD) bug in #GPSD versions 3.20 (released December 31, 2019) through 3.22 (released January 8, 2021)." https://us-cert.cisa.gov/ncas/current-activity/2021/10/21/gps-daemon-gpsd-rollover-bug
Careful about the 24th of October, you may return to March 2002... Update #GPSD!
