Wikipedia, kernel sources and some LLM models
I'd replace kernel sources with a full Linux distribution (unless this is already part of "essential system files")
And some Stallman memes for good measure

Is it 100 GB in addition to what I already have saved or 100 GB of total storage? Because if it's 100 GB of total storage then I wouldn't be thinking about downloading, I'll be thinking about what I want to keep.
100GB is ridiculously low nowadays. I don't think I have a single device in regular use (including my phone) with such small storage.
Just my picture archive (that is, pictures I took since I got mit first digital camera) is about 400GB.
But without such a low storage limit, this wouldn't be a fun question. The point is to really think about what files we cherish and what are we okay with losing access to (for at least 5 years).

Total storage. If you have more, government agents might randonly burst in and confiscate excess storage. 😉
First thing would be to seriously look into data compression, and live with heavily lossy-compressed media (my music collection would be ring-fenced though). Throw out backups of physical media (take the chance on disc-rot); I guess any backups wouldn't be possible in this universe anyway so it will all be left to chance. And then see what's left.
I mean… if we’re optimizing for covert physical presence… you can hide these fuckers in tons of interesting places.
Guides how to create my own little internet with other people, 7zip and 99GB of RAM.
Lol bootleg internet?
I think I head about some place where people actually have a bootleg internet due to government censorship. Forgot where I heard about it.
Sounds like a cyberpunk trope.
Nothing, because the rest of the world is trying to do the same thing and the internet is now essentially DDoSed into oblivion 24 hours early.
As much of pornhub that will fit.

Download factorio and dwarf fortress
A few years ago I was living in fear of local government turning internet into intranet north korea-style (dont ask). So - no joke - I've had factorio archived with latest versions of seablock, space exploration and nullius. Figured it'll keep me going for a decade or so.

100 GB
looks at my nas, already stuffed with several TB of content, chuckling
Some panic, while others were ready since the dawn of time. I'll add that extra 100 gigs to my drive collection though...
(it's lots of games, media, and yiff. And yeah, it is enough to hold me over for 5 years. No, you can't see it. :p)
You didn't read the post. You're going to be spending all of your time deleting your content because you only have 100 GB's total.
Math, science, chemistry, carpentry, gardening, and mechanical/engineering texts.
And repair manuals /guides for everything i own.
All the music on my playlists.
Porn.

The internet is going down for 5 years? Books and video instructions about farming prolly, I'll probably be unemployed if there's no Internet.
I have a library card and they have plenty bluerays and audiobooks there. I think I'd download all Debian packages and maybe some pornography? Because that seems to be missing in the city library for some reason.
Sorry, but i feel like i have been preparing for this for the last 15 years now. I won't answer the question because I already have 40tb worth of content on my personal NAS. From movies, TV shows, music, and video games, I think I will be good for some time living off of just that. I also have all my docs, and personal pics as well.
Since I live in an area where power goes out a lot and internet can go down once or twice a year (not long but maybe up to 6 hours, worst case) it's already been a great solution that I was able to try out during those events.
1/10th of a Call of Duty game.
Just find 9 more people and then y'all can meet up and play the game.
ROMs
A 100GB of ROMs
With the stipulation that it's 100GB total and not on top of what I already have, then the question is not what I would download, but rather which of my family photos/videos I'm okay with losing.
Wikipedia and a lot of games. A bunch of programming tools and libraries. My Spotify playlist. Video is the least efficient so you'd have to limit that a lot.

100 GB is some rookie numbers. I've had 8tb for years, I'm only half full and the drives are starting to age out. I've already replaced one with a 4tb drive, once the rest are replaced, it'll be 16tb total.

Hah, I've been collecting all my needs offline for a while now. Because companies keep turning to subscriptions and other ##. I'm pretty sure my archive of apps is under 100GB
In this thread: dorks using it as an opportunity to brag about their large storage epeens.
But then what happened to my 120 petabyte network attached storage, host to every episode of Inuyasha in multiple releases, languages, and resolutions?! My mother would surely notice having space again in ~~her~~ our basement!

A collection of older and therefore smaller games. A bunch of music in mp3 (or maybe something like AAC or OPUS). A bunch of ebooks. A handful of my favorite TV shows and/or movies heavily recompressed, like maybe 720p.
