📄 Description

I also added an editor's note about Antergos's defunct status with a reference to its successor.

This changes a few HTTPS urls to HTTP - this is intentional - it turns out the MirBSD.org webserver does not work with modern browsers. I contacted mirabilos (the maintainer) to ask what he wants done - he suggested I use HTTP for now.

Additionally tinycore linux no longer operates a HTTPS website. It appears HTTP only.

As a note to myself and others, here is how you can (roughly) test the links:

grep -hrEo "(http|https)://[a-zA-Z0-9./?=_%:-]*" blog docs |
    sort -u |
    while read -r url; do
        echo -n '.'
        curl -sS -I -m 5 "$url" >/dev/null || printf '\n%s\n' "$url"
    done
