1. Edit the mirror list located at /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist and uncomment a preferred mirror (preferrably closest to you)
2. Initialize Pacman GPG Keys
    - $> pacman-key --init
    - $> pacman-key --populate archlinux
    - $> pacman-key --refresh-keys -u --keyserver hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net
        *The use of the --keyserver flag is due to an error that currently occurs when using the default keyserver
3. Reinstall Arch keyring
    - $> pacman -S archlinux-keyring
4. Install Yay (if desired)
    - Create a user (you cannot run makepkg as root, you must be signed in as a user)
