And when you were done with doing all of those things?

There are always more things. Once learning how to setup a server, there come more servers to learn about. After learning to program in one language, there come other languages and interesting programming projects etc. And along the way, you'll hear about and discover other interesting hobbies to check out. Maybe learning how to lockpick and learning how to program combine to learning about hacking, or cyber security. It goes in and on. There are always more interesting things to learn if you're curious.

I also am an endlessly curious person haha!

Well maybe you never get bored, but I certainly do. And I'm far from alone there. Sure, there are always more interesting things to learn if you're curious. There's also only so much energy you can put into them. And if you devote a lot of your energy to one of them, it's basically an unpaid job. Which is fine if that's what makes you happy, but it's still a job.

Boredom is good for someone. The brain hates it so it forces itself to be creative or do something. You have more energy if so much of it wasn't dedicated to trying to work and suckle off of capitalism teat so you can survive. That is the thing when so much energy is focused on work you miss community/hobby work that is a healthier thing to build for one's self for one's overall happiness. If it costs less to live the more you can spend on hobbies which allows more hobbies to be livable jobs in your community

I always get bored! That's what drives me to explore and learn.

Boredom sparks new interests. You need to experience it to understand.

I'm suffering from a long-term serious illness where I'm not working. I think I've experienced boredom.
