I did not change the default substitute-urls in 0.15

This is probably low priority.

We should omit everything after the first warning I think.

At the time you wrote this, hydra.gnu.org was partially back up, but
with several of the important daemons not yet started.  I've since
started the daemons, so it might work now.

Also, I would argue that this behavior (printing a warning and ignoring
the faulty server) is good.  I can’t think of a better way to handle
this situation.

Thoughts?

Thanks for taking your time on this.

This is also near or in the bikeshedding territory :p

1 thing that is wrong in the message above is the number of requests per 
second.

  3,081.9 requests per second

This cannot be right.

Yeah I think that you get a throughput tends to +∞ when everything is
already available in ~/.cache/guix/substitute, and ‘guix weather’
doesn’t realize that.

But anyway, that’s a different bug, so I’m closing this one!  :-)
