The scene mentioning the big EMP-reset in Blade Runner 2049 made me wonder just how much would be lost to us in such a scenario. Much that we care about is currently on highly sensitive storage.
What format should I invest in (developing/purchasing/etc) that would A) be easy-ish to read from B) be dense enough to exceed the point I might as well just be using paper/glass slides/microfiche/and so on, and could be ramped back up from pretty crude tech.
Combine "end of civilization", "time-travelling with tech", and other thought-experiment scenarios for fun.
If it is end of civilization you care about then print out survival instructions. Basic low tech things that one person can do in a farm sized area with minimal help.
Don't worry about advanced stuff. How to make a transistor will be lost long before we develop a new civilization capable of needing transistors. So don't waste paper on it.
