When i run apt update it gives:

Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com stable InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386'

I use Kubuntu 22.04.1 64 bit, so how do i solve this?

Please add output of the file containing "brave" in the name form `/etc/apt/sources.list.d` ending with `.list`.

This error message is indicating that the repository "https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com stable InRelease" does not support the i386 architecture, and as a result, the "main/binary-i386/Packages" file is being skipped during the update process. This error message can be safely ignored or you can try one of the following fixes:

You can add arch=amd64 to your brave-browser-release.list file. The instructions provided by Brave Browser for installing on Ubuntu try to accommodate every architecture. That's why the instructions omit arch=amd64 when they suggest adding a .list file for brave. The upside for Brave is that identical instructions will work on AMD64 and ARM machines. But this isn't ideal for AMD64 users because it leads to the problem you're seeing. Since you have an AMD64 machine, you can run this modified instruction to fix the problem:

echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg] https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/ stable main"|sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser-release.list

This command creates or replaces the brave-browser-release.list file so that it includes the arch=amd64 parameter.

If that doesn't fix the problem, you can also try removing the line containing i386 in your /etc/apt/sources.list.

After applying the fix, run the following command again:

sudo apt update

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.
