Repeated messages to install ubuntu base on fully updated 20.04 desktop system. Why?

cn flag

Just curious - is it normal after doing an apt-get update then upgrade to repeatedly receive messages telling me to install ubuntu base on my desktop computer?

Reading about what ubuntu base is makes me wonder why do I need it on an operating system?

enter image description here

I haven't clicked on "Install now" but usually do an apt-get update followed by upgrade. And just doing only apt-get update, now I see:

The only way for me to get around this was to completely remove Skype. Now I have yet a different problem with skype repositories but since it doesn't specifically apply to this post, I'll just leave it solved.

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.
