  • Download Kiwix and a full copy of Wikipedia and other useful wikis as ZIM files.
  • Make sure my media library has as many movies and shows that I'm interested in as possible.
  • Download the entire Guttenburg library of books.
  • Grab any free legacy games and media from archive.org that looks interesting.
  • Get a meshtastic device and get familiar with it.
  • Get familiar with my long-range radio (and probably finally get a HAM radio license).

    All of the above (great list by the way, I was about to suggest most of these), I'd also add a couple of ISOs + Ventoy just in case you need to reinstall or repair your OS.
