It should fall back to IP geolocation, but you really need to know at least a general location to get accurate times.

That's correct - it used IP geolocation for me as my browser is configured to auto-reject Location API requests. :)
what is the default using when I'm using my desktop? My Wifi SSID and creepy pre-sharing to databases that I did inadvertently?
The default is the HTML geolocation API, as implemented by your web browser.
