Bug Description

In timedate settings, I have it configured to "Set the time ___ Automatically from the internet"

However, this does not work, I always have to manually change the timezone whenever I travel.

This is a bit annoying, as I do expect this to just work.

I do, however, expect maybe some short delay in updating TZ settings when I travel, but it's sat for several days before on the wrong timezine becuase it didn't automatically update. In this most recent case, I felw to the west coast and had to manually set the time to "Seattle". When I flew back to the East Coast, I had to set it manually to "NYC" after several hours as it had not automatically updated to the correct timezone.
