Daily Activities

System update
- got a new mirrorlist, hopefully it will help out. rankmirrors still isn't working, I guess it's not too high on the priority list. Maybe I'll take a look at the code or write my own script to handle mirror ranking.

Installed VLC, along with its million dependencies

Looks like Archlinux will be rolling out a multilib repo shortly. It will house all the things that depend on 32 bit libraries for 64 bit packages, like flash. Which means those things will no longer be in AUR, very exciting.

I've also been thinking about trying my hand in writing/maintaining some AUR packages. I need to do some reading on package builds and look for an orphaned package that might interest me/that I use.
