I disabled 2-factor auth on my Google account for the same reason: the only time I need to use it is when I'm not using my computer because I'm on vacation somewhere remote, and most of the time I don't have access to the network on my phone or I don't have any battery left...

Google Authenticator doesn't need network. Battery however is required of course.

  I wish there was a Google Authenticator app for the desktop, so I could at least have a backup in case my phone gets lost/stolen.

    The algorithm is published, so you could plausibly write one.
