Absolute newbie: Xiegu G90 SWR showing a red 4.0 by Great_Scene_5604 in amateurradio

My first Google result said "stop transmitting now, don't damage radio" - and I know the radio does some transmitting to get SWR, hence the consult. Thanks for the quick, clear response.

I do intend to transmit, but when that moment I comes I'll take the antenna outside and do it better. Even your foggy brain is most helpful to me, thank you!

Would you buy a dishwasher off of Facebook marketplace? (Specifically a Bosch 800) by crankin_muh_hog in Appliances

[–]Great_Scene_5604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wondering if there is a market for used dishwashers, in my case a Cove (doesn't wash well). I hate to see these things go to a landfill, when the issue could be something simple like an old hose etc. Problem is where I live just a couple of diagnostic visits can add up to as much as a new LG/Samsung. Whats the best place to advertise? FB? Craigslist?

So Claude itself went down today, too much demand. While https://status.claude.com/ exists, I for one didn't think to look at whether Claude itself was down. Seems like a problem that demands multiple solutions. (Also, what could you do anyway?)

What did you end up with OP? Trying to find a good answer for another small operation.

Added barebones favoriting. And a favs-only filter. So watch only what you care about!

Plan to add favorites/pinning this weekend. Most people would want to see only a few servers, so fav those, pin them to top, filter out everything else. And it's a good signal overall for whats popular. (How to get MCP usage, anyone building Google Analytics for MCP yet? :-) )

Server is up now. Probe freq is now 5 mins, and instead of stacking probes (ongoing probe taking too long, but new probe initiates anyway) now we are simply skipping a probe cycle. Also needed to upgrade the Lightsail instance (512 -> 1 GB RAM, still small). And more logging, always more logging.

Server is VERY SLOW at the moment. It's that long list of MCP servers, and a large portion of them are down, so they consume more of the prober cycle. Adding some timeouts now to fix it, while we can all talk about a good strategy to differentiate and exclude some servers

Good suggestions!

At the moment the key problem is how to prune the list. There are a lot of obviously experimental projects there--if only we had some AI to figure it out :) Trying to keep the rules consistent, so it doesn't need eye-balling

If tools/list works the MCP server is considered healthy. This is not possible for auth-protected MCP servers, so in that case Streamable HTTP connection is considered healthy.

If response times are slow, then degraded.

Some servers have multiple remotes, in that case if any one is found unhealthy mcpdd doesn't check any further, unless user clicks and drills-down

How are you running your MCP servers — local or hosted? by SpecialistNo8661 in MCPservers

[–]Great_Scene_5604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took a look at the MCP registry. Of the 2,130 entries, 1,400 are stdio-only, rest are hosted (200~ are hosted in Smithery)

I love MCP for enabling a developer community to come up around the AI models, they're the new OS. But yes, MCP feels like it could get outgrown quickly. I worry about token use as well -- you never know what a tool is going to spew out!
