I would like to install virtualbox to use genymotion. I downloaded the .deb package. I get this error when I run the command sudo apt install ./virtualbox.

The following packages contain unmet dependencies:

I found a solution.

First I executed these commands:

sudo apt remove virtualbox
sudo apt autoremove

Then I rebooted my machine and I entered:

sudo apt install virtualbox

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.
