Today, the universe wanted to reaffirm my belief that more people should ensure they have local copies of anything they think they might ever need.

- picked up a project I hadn't touched in a few months to find some of the build scripts failing - because the decades old mirror they were attempting to pull packages from has apparently been offline for months.

- then I went to check a popular git repo and got hit with: "site administrator has misconfigured anubis" (worked around it...but still)
