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.

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.

Youtube videos. I used to use youtube-dl exclusively, and then that stopped working, and I've gradually been sucked back into just using the website. But there's a text file with a list of URLs I've been meaning to grab for posterity... and it's getting kinda fat.

Perhaps instead of using youtube-dl or yt-dlp, you may enjoy some client such as freetube more, as it has a lot of the benefits of those tools, but without ads, and with sponsorblock/thumbnail correction, and other nice customizations. It also enables you to create playlists and whatnot.

You can hit a button to download directly from a video's page as well, though I think that feature needs some love from the developers (you don't get a loading bar on download).

Latest llama version and instructions for setting it up

I already did.

BBS software. Nerds always find a way. I guess if I have to be a sysop now…

Probably forums I use to solve problems (stackoverflow and all the stack exchange ones), offline games, guides (for programming, sysadmin, building tables, cooking, travel and repair ones…), documentation for every software and tool I use or might use. Wikipedia is also a must, music too. I have a media server for my music but keeping it up to date with every release is hard work that I haven’t started (yet).

I could honestly just re-watch most of my shows until the end of time.

I will literally never get tired of Bee and Puppycat.

Grab the whole world, not just where you live, it's not too much space

[–] Geometrinen_Gepardi@sopuli.xyz 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

A decent chunk of that is in The Food Lab cookbook.

All the extension office university data on plants, agriculture, etc. It’s invaluable info for anyone who grows their own food and deals with bees in relation to that food growth.

I'd want to pirate every drawing program I never got a chance to try, plus the fancier writing software. Gonna have a lot of time to learn both.

I've seen shockingly few movies and TV shows so maybe all the media I can get my hands on, too.
