pacman just does not work

[1destroyer2x]

Hello, I just installed the newest Arch Linux ARM distro to my Raspberry Pi, made sure the direct ethernet connection was working on it, and tried to download some packages. I got a few 404 errors on some of them and just thought the repo had removed them, then I tried to do a system update.

Literally every single package gave me a 404 error. I'm assuming this is a problem with my mirrorlist, or possibly the pacman.conf (I haven't used pacman a whole lot, but I assume these are the 2 culprits). Now, I haven't altered either of these files at all, they are still exactly the same as the image, why would they not work?

If there's no clear answer, could someone at least upload their unaltered working lists?

Here is my mirrorlist for reference http://pastebin.com/HQC5Ap9X

Well nevermind, a few minutes after posting that I tried again. It worked. Perhaps the servers were just down.
EDIT: Nevermind, it's still broken. It got pretty close to updating until this happened

Just try the same command again. This is pretty normal behaviour (in my experience).

1) have you Syy?
2) consider setting a local mirror instead of group selection.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('WarheadsSE', '1')) have you Syy?
2) consider setting a local mirror instead of group selection.

I would love to understand why this happens too.
I know that when it happens, in most of the cases re-entering the command works fine,
but why do we need to do this? Why doesn't he find the host in the first attempt?

[WarheadsSE]

404 is not a host not found.

Found one of our mirrors that wasn't responding properly to mirror.archlinuxarm.org. Should be fixed soon. This was likely the cause for the above case.
