I'm having trouble updating my system and getting the error: "E: The repository 'https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu noble Release' does not have a Release file." It says that updating from this repository can't be done securely and is disabled by default. I'm using Ubuntu 24.04.02 with an Intel CPU and NVIDIA GPU. Can anyone help me figure out how to fix this?

Don't forget to check out `man apt-secure` for more information on repository management. It could provide insights into how to handle such errors.
First, check your `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/` directory to see if there's a file that has the PPA entry causing the issue. If you find it, just delete or comment it out. That should resolve the error so you can update safely.
You might want to try running this command to remove the problematic PPA: `sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:webupd8team/java`. That usually does the trick!
