As a base: The Linux kernel source, GNU software sources and compiler binaries so I can - in theory - write missing software myself. For convenience probably some stable, offline-installable, ready to use distros.

I would probably also archive sources and binaries of day-to-day software like web-browsers (I might still have an intranet to use), office tools, photo management software, audio/video players and all the codecs, etc.

I think that's a solid starting point but im sure I'm missing something important :D

That depends on a couple of things:

If you have a separate partition for /home (your personal data) it is pretty easy since you can reinstall the system, leave /home untouched during installation and just configure it to be used as /home in your new setup.

This does not work if you either do not have a separate /home partition or you encrypt your system via LUKS.

It technically still is possible in the aforementioned cases but involves expert knowledge and probably a lot of manual steps which I'd say for you and me it probably is impractical.

Omg yes, I absolutely fell in love with Kao Soi! We went hiking in the jungle when we were near Chiang Mai - some of the most beautiful nature I've ever seen (I've not been to a lot of places in south/east Asia, though).
