I'm using Ubuntu 22.04 on HP Zbook 14u G5. F12 key on my keyboard has a calendar image on it. When I press this key on Windows, calendar starts. But on Ubuntu this feature is not working. First of all, I changed configuration file /lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb. Now, when i press F12, evtest shows that I'm pressing KEY_CALENDAR. But it still does not open calendar. Moreover, when I press F12, evtest outputs this:

But I don't actually press ctrl and alt keys on my keyboard. Can someone please help me to figure it out?

Ok, I figured it out. After editing configuration file /lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb I added a custom shortcut in gnome-settings. Now calendar when I press the calendar button everything works fine )

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.
