I actually thought I am part of this blessed generation that can use a computer. But rotating a PDF? That beats me.

The real skillset isn’t necessarily knowing how to do these things off tbe top of your head, but knowing how to look them up.
Perhaps the biggest obstacle for the next generation is how thoroughly Google has enshittified.
Sounds like something imagemagick could do so that would be my first strategy to try
Ctrl+shift+plus sign
Or ctrl + alt + down arrow also work
