For me it would be a full copy of wikipedia, an offline copy of some maps of where I live, some linux ISO’s, and a lot of entertainment media.
A full copy of Stack Overflow. Otherwise, we would not know how to get the Internet working again.
Somethings are better when done from scratch.
A copy of scratch then.
FROM scratch AS internet # TODOnot sure what you’re refering to:)
http plz fix https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_referer
Extra RAM.
Can’t believe I’m the first to say this, but… porn.

For what
The arch linux wiki, where you will be instructed to install various dependencies from the AUR
Why doesn’t the OS install those for you
Depends on how up-to-date your install image is. If you downloaded the ISO 6 months ago, chances are, the build you downloaded is out of date (doubly so if it’s Arch). Most installers have an online option that will download the updates and install the newest version, but if you don’t have access to the internet, then all you have is the data included in the ISO that you got 6 months ago.
All the images I have bookmarked on multiple devices from e621, any game I’ve been even possibly hesitating on pirating, all my Steam games (I don’t trust Inwouldnhe able to get in and install them if I could even get into my account to begin with at that point), and downloading every single song I have saved on yt and Newpipe because I’d never see them again.
A whole slew of things.
i already download all my favs from e6 and FA lul
Arch wiki with arch man docs.
Definitely entertainment, but beyond that, Networking classes so that I can hack together a intranet for my household and the neighbourhood
Not too hard with a single server as your node and everyone being wired into it. Obviously you would have to code every website and have all required dependencies there already.
Wikipedia would be the most valuable thing if I had to pick one, I guess.
An maybe the “your jimmies are eternal video” in case I need to unrustle my jimmie ever again.
I do have a copy of wikipedia and I should be good on entertainment media. I guess I should expand the emergency porn stash.
Those naked pictures of your mom
Oh please, you can find those in the yellow pages
Dick Valentine, is that you?
All of kurzgesagt, minute physics, vsauce, Steve mould, matt parker, and veritasium. I think they’re invaluable education resources and it would be useful to be able to distribute them, or just have them for my own sake.
Honestly, while fun, those videos don’t provide too much value per GB - and I say that as someone who’s watched almost all of them. Their main actual benefit besides entertainment is (IMHO) getting people interested in the relevant field so they study more thoroughly. They often explain simple yet dazzling concepts which get you hooked but don’t provide much value on their own, and don’t directly enable you to solve real-life problems. Even more involved videos like those by 3blue1brown are still edutainment at their core, as acknowledged by the author. In an apocalypse (which, let’s face it, is the most likely reason the internet would indefinitely go down in a developed country) you would be much better off with engineering (mechanical, electrical, etc) literature and textbooks, maybe a couple science textbooks for good measure (I have a drawer full of the Feynman lectures in case something like this happens).
I don’t disagree with the sentiment but I think having accessible, entertaining education resources would also be a huge boon. They’re sure not going into depth on the topics but I imagine getting people “on the hook” could be huge, and then they can find other more educational resources from others in the community.
Assuming the web would go completely bust, I’d go back to a much simpler life.
I’ve made sure I’m good to go, as I always thought the day might come that I can’t afford internet anyway.
I have my entire gog and itch library downloaded (if I have any steam games not on gog, I’ve pirated them if I can find it). I have my nas full of movies and tv. I listen to all my favourite music on records. Every couple of years I go through and update my rom library to make sure I have the most to to date best known roms.
Even as much as possible I keep latest version of the Linux iso I might want, and if there is an appimage of my most used programs, it’s there too.
I’m pretty much ready for my life to become leaner when it comes to internet.
The Gutenberg Project, as well as those free online classes for things.
Honestly I’d probably just give up on technology entirely. Become a hermit carpenter or something
