E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

full output

so i gave a read to this answer on another ask ubuntu thread and tried all of its suggested solutions,

$ sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
$ sudo apt-get update

no errors now, but now when i try to do

$ sudo apt install g++

or even

$ sudo apt install -f g++

i get the same error as mentioned above, any help would be appreciated, its worth noting this is a fresh install of kubuntu 20.04

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.
