Ubuntu 22.04 - apt 503 Service Unavailable

be flag

I'm having troubles with apt and the sources list. I keep getting 503 errors, even though the ur'l work with curl. ofther repo's (zabbix for example) does work fine.

There is NO proxy settings needed, nor are they setup. Any tips on this are welcome. I've reviewed several other articles regarding 503 errors with APT but none solve my issue.

So any tips are welcome.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
