My problem is confusing. I am aware there is the possibility of installing programs through blackarch.

I am aware there are similar issues to which I have attempted a few fixes. Some of which involved signing the gpg keys with pacman-key. Firstly, my issues output is as described in the preformatted text. I included my inxi. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I really enjoy using garuda linux. I have such a wonderful experience using the OS to do many things:
