i keep getting this after clicking on Refresh mirrorlist
I tried this command but it didnt work
I am not sure where you find it, but rate-mirrors might give you a better result. If not elsewhere, it can be found as rate-mirrors-bin in the AUR. The simplest usage is:
rate-mirrors arch | sudo tee /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
kit@sussy in ~
λ update
[sudo] password for kit:

There's something strange in the mirrorlist.
Can you execute sudo pacman -S pacman-mirrorlist
And if successful, sudo micro /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Uncomment some mirrors and re-execute update
In addition to that, sorry, I edited my post late because there was a step missing sudo micro /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Uncomment some mirrors and re-execute update
I dislike being redundant (not with you OP)...but you have a Coffee Lake CPU with a machine BIOS dated 2018. I think you might find a more recent BIOS update, perhaps. Mine is last dated 11/21.
Wasn’t on a Garuda build at that moment, so no easy access to chaotic-aur (OK - I was lazy). Glad to hear it is there, though! I find the results a bit more long-lasting m(and better fallbacks!) than reflector’s…

im not sure what uncomment means since im new to linux but from what i found its adding a # at the start of the thingy in the mirror list they all have that tho
