What if you knew the apocalypse was three days away? (lemmy.zip)

Imagine you had 72 hours before everything collapses. How would you spend that time? Would you stockpile supplies? Would you focus on warning as many people as possible? Would you try to preserve knowledge, like books, hard drives, download internet archives, etc.? Would you collect music or history?

Apocalypse by default isn't survivable.

Probably I would try to enjoy the last 3 days and at the end I would repent because it would not hurt to cover all the bases.

If it would be survivable: I would not last long. Medical / vision / dental coverage is in short supply during the end of days.
Find a good fortress/ship with water and solar panels, download Wikipedia (annas archive), gather seeds and growing supplies, tools to fix stuff, duct tape: Realistically not happening.
