# This one-liner revives an old Arch Linux install where `pacman -Syu` is not working by:
# 1. Updating mirror list for DE, AT, CH sorted by rate - ensures access to active and fast mirrors.
# 2. Downloading and running static pacman, initializing and populating pacman keyring - re-establishes basic package management capabilities.
# 3. Updating archlinux-keyring and pacman-contrib - ensures keyring and essential tools are up-to-date.
# 4. Reranking mirror list with the top 5 fastest servers - this is why we needed pacman-contrib.
# 5. Running `sudo pacman -Syu --noconfirm` - brings the system to the latest package versions.
