| useful how? for work? leisure? not sure how youtube-dl would be useful during an internet outage, could elaborate on how you'd see a use for it?, I could see rsync still being useful for LAN file transfers (sincerely not trying to be annoying/condescending, just thinking there might be more to youtube-dl than how I've used it) but not sure if you mean like downloading a library of documentaries/videos in local hard drives while you do have access to youtube, and then using something like plex to watch them I do that, except for the plex part, I use mpv in my computer, and don't have a tv with LAN/network capabilities I also have some PDF ebooks from nostarch, and use zeal for offline documentation browsing, for reference when programming, be it for work, or my own stuff you only mentioned software/digital things, so I assume not physical tools, like multitool (like the ones that can open cans and/or start fires) I'd get a at least a couple of physical books, in case if you mean losing not just internet connectivity, but also electricity I also think it's possible to download libgen to local media, though I haven't done it myself I saw at least one answer mentioning survival things so I'm not sure if I went off-base here |
