Why are car prices going up there?

shortage of electrical chips , fire in a factory somewhere , that was a couple of years ago, so they cant build as many new cars , so people aren't part exchanging their used cars , so there is a shortage and pushed prices up,  i did manage to buy a couple today .

My day hasn't gone as planned, what i thought was going to be a few hours work replacing the condense pipe has turned into 6 hours so far and i'm still not done, looks like the condense water likes to consume more than copper I've had to replace half a dozen of the artificial slate tiles on the roof as well, all the ones that have had the condense water on just crumble to nothing in your hands. Having a bit of grub at the moment while the trace heating warms up so i'ts a bit easier to dress along the condense pipe

As far as i'm aware the boiler recycles the hot exhaust gases it produces when heating the water so it uses less gas making it more efficient. when the gases cool they produce water that drains to the sewer, as i have found out it cannot be made of metal as the water is corrosive. On my house the only way i could run the pipe was across my kitchen roof into the guttering which then goes to the sewer but it is susceptible to freezing which mine had done so it was running over the roof tiles instead of through the pipe. fixing this is what highlighted the corroded pipe in the boiler cupboard god knows how long it has been leaking definitely months rather than weeks. Its only a drip so has taken a long time to show up in the house as we never go in the boiler cupboard unless there's a problem

I've got to deal with this security advisory from the US server in Michigan:

⛔ High Kernel The system kernel is at version “3.10.0-1160.76.1.el7.x86_64”, but an update is available: 3.10.0-1160.83.1.el7.x86_64 Update the system (run “yum -y update” on the command line), and reboot the system.

⛔ High Processes Detected 1 service that is running outdated executables: httpd.service You must take one of the following actions to ensure the system is up-to-date: Restart the listed service using “systemctl restart httpd.service”; then click “Scan Again” to check non-service processes. Reboot the server.

Doesn't affect this place though.....it's on the UK server in London.
