[Hypothetical] The internet is getting shut down for 5 years. You have 100 GB of storage available, you have 24 hours to prepare. What do you download?

ERROR: Earth.exe has crashed@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Lets say you live in a world where the world government has decided people are getting too addicted to the internet and ordered the internet to be shut down for 5 years. The 100 GB of storage is all you have (excluding essential system files for your Operating System). You have 24 hours before the internet is getting shut down. What do you download?

100 GB

looks at my nas, already stuffed with several TB of content, chuckling

Some panic, while others were ready since the dawn of time. I’ll add that extra 100 gigs to my drive collection though…

(it’s lots of games, media, and yiff. And yeah, it is enough to hold me over for 5 years. No, you can’t see it. :p)

You didn’t read the post. You’re going to be spending all of your time deleting your content because you only have 100 GB’s total.
