What?
This PR disables the broken University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA mirror server by setting
active: false

Additional Notes
This is a temporary fix until the master server issues are resolved. The mirror entry is preserved in the configuration but marked as inactive, making it easy to re-enable once the server problems are fixed.
