Except helping others, I cover them all! :blobmiou: :blobmiou:
But, to be clear, I don't help others on internet cause I don't consider myself good enough, but I would be pleased to help anyone y+if they asked me.
I still teach voluntary classes two times a moth, cause I love to help and teach everyone! But those clases are not exclusively about Linux, they are general tech.

I guess I was once a power user haha, curently I just don't give a fuck if something breaks. I just rollback/switch to xorg and wait for the update. I forgot commands cuz I don't fix most of the problems and rarely just use package manager to solve a dependency failure.

you're a power user when you use lsblk to check you have the right device before running dd and still accidentally wipe your os

And if you always fit those five signs, and didn't have to "start", then you're old...
My first computer was a VIC-20. I stuck with DOS as long as I could, then shifted to Slackware. Didn't even start launching X frequently until 2007.
