If the internet went away indefinitely, what things would you wish you had downloaded before it happened?
-
in my basement, sure
-
The Time Cube so I could rebuild society.
-
FROM scratch AS internet # TODO -
Not to be confused with Times Square
-
What the hell
-
Opera videos.
-
What makes you think I didn't already download everything I want?
-
Nothing, I never said any such thing. In your case your answer to my question would be "I would not have to wish, because I already downloaded everything I want". This makes you wise.
-
don't forget the source code!
-
Lots of code repos. Especially repos for programming languages, compilers, and Git.
-
That's a much classier way of calling someone a digital hoarder

Haha, I have an ok amount of data tucked away on disks as well, but I have a huge appreciation for people who do collect data as a hobby. In the contemporary, I fully believe that having people who take it upon themselves to do this is more important than ever, even thought it is often a thankless thing to do.
So in this case, I would throw a thank you your way for doing that!
