gdb backtrace of plasmashell using coredumpctl

SUMMARY
while using kde plasma, the task manager at the bottom will randomly just disappear, and then reappear a few seconds later, whenever this happens my desktop also goes black, most likely this is just the entire plasmashell crashing and rebooting itself

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
i cant give any, this happens on complete random with me not doing anything, ill either just be playing a game or ill be watching a video and then itll just crash

OBSERVED RESULT
it crashes

EXPECTED RESULT
it shouldnt do that
