Ask HN: How would you prepare for 6 months without internet?
This may or may not be a shamelessly self-interested question, since I will soon be in an connection-free environment until June for work. That said, I think it's an interesting thought exercise. What tools/materials would you download in advance? What projects would you work on to stay productive? Curious to see what ideas HNers come up with.

1. A good game that can be played offline
2. A wikipedia database download
3. 100 books from Libgen that you know you'll want to read eventually.
Should all fit comfortably on a cheap USB drive, but maybe get two for redundancy.
