E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

a "--fix-missing" on apt-get does not make this problem go away, either. is this a known problem and/or is there a known solution to start over the hashes?

This issue is due to the website archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_jammy-updates_main_binary-amd64_Packages.xz being down. If it hadn't come back up, the only solution would be to find another link to that package and change the configuration to use that instead.

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.
