Some useful things I sometimes use:

Code:
nmcli dev                # show status of network devices

nmcli dev wifi         # show nearby WiFi networks

xrandr -q                 # show information and possible resolutions for every connected screen

acpi                          # battery status (add '-i' flag for battery health)

pgrep [program]   # find running instances of [program]

binwalk [file]          # find hidden files insede binary files (like ZIP archives hidden in a PNG image)
