You are going away, to some place isolated… in space, of course. You will only be around one other person. You can take an allotment if 1GB of personal media with you (text, video, music, games, pics, etc.) that you will be able to access in your free time indefinitely at will.
The other person will also take 1GB with them, but you won’t be able to talk to them until you’re on the journey.
You will have access to any knowledge resources to perform your function and keep you alive. You will never return to a point where you can get new external media. Any additional media you ever access would have to be created by you and or your travel partner with what you have access to.
You will also not know the sex of your partner, but they have willingly taken the same risks to embark on the journey as yourself, and will have a similar mission.
ROMS of retro games.
Bro forgot to bring an emulator… Enjoy staring at binary code or something.
Random name, npc, map generators for tabletop roleplaying. It’s just text and lookup tables. You can fit a lot of that in 1gb.
For sure games since they offer a lot of replayability. Maybe some reaading materials since they also don’t occupy a lot of space.
That’s only about 5% of the text of Wikipedia. Maybe I’ll take just the top 100k articles.
An emulator and a shitton of old roms. The further back you go, the smaller they get. I’ll probably splurge on a few choice games over 100mb with good pvp or co-op to play with my partner, but the vast majority will be under 5mb.
