I wonder why there's no P2P crowdsourced news and weather network. Even stuff like the Citizen app gets ignored mostly.

I think the most useful offline reference is various rope knots. Mostly because I'm not a prepper and they're one of the few old fashioned skills that doesn't seem to be any less useful now than 100 years ago. Knots aren't just still usable, they're still the common, generally preferred way.

Almost everything low tech is, for most people, something pretty cool, maybe even something we think we probably should learn, but not something that generally comes up in real life for most, like ropework seems to, at least for me.

I made a one-page reference of my top favorites but someone can probably do better: https://www.reddit.com/r/knots/comments/16zcsxi/i_made_an_a5...
