The troll gives me the main idea without having to find five tiny x's on the screen like some sadistic minigame then paywall me. I'll take the troll.

What a relief, I was horrified this was going to be an atrocious Rocket League update.

Re:CentOS Linux 7 will reach EOL on Sunday

Oh yes, I checked caching, checked that the URLs were official by comparing them to the URLs CentOS canonically suggested, checked that the URLs did include security update repos, definitely dove into commands for "force check updates" type commands and the kernel rpms just weren't there. Old ones, new ones, nothing.
Now I could have made a mistake, and according to the article text CentOS 7 "isn't EOL yet" so if someone has a mirror that does work I'd be interested to see evidence that kernel updates are even available. I'm not checking myself though, I don't trust Oracle enough to risk spending time standing up a CentOS 7 machine.

I stopped trusting CentOS dates and assumed CentOS 7 was EOL a long time ago because their yum repos were down, or they didn't provide certain updates anymore, or something. I noticed inconsistencies across machines I tried to update simultaneously, noticed there wasn't a common update point available (the machines were on slightly different versions to begin with), and decided it was junk and time to move on.
