The internet is getting shut down for 5 years. You have 100 GB of storage available, you have 24 hours to prepare. What do you download?

Lets say you live in a world where the world government has decided people are getting too addicted to the internet and ordered the internet to be shut down for 5 years. The 100 GB of storage is all you have (excluding essential system files for your Operating System). You have 24 hours before the internet is getting shut down. What do you download?
