Unless you compress it heavily, a Blu-ray rip is in the 20 to 40GB range.
700mB aXXo DVD rip then
Blu-ray is yes.
A rip implies higher compression /changes.
A movie like Independence Day? Easy to do 7gb with good quality. Blurays is H264, We have x265 now. 4gb size? Those explosions gonna be chunky, but film is watchable.
Then they get to watch us kick their asses till there's nothing left of them but compression artifacts.
pff just send star wars and male them confused
Or female them sensible
I would first find some big names from the demo scene and say "I am not worthy, let these folks do it" and anyone who disagreed would have their frontal lobes severed or something.
This, in its original form, was 4kb.
So, none of us are worthy. Unless one of you is on Lemmy.
Edit: this one is 1kb lmao. None of us are worthy.
Can you tell me a little more about these? What is the βdemo scene,β how were they made, and why were they made?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demoscene
It's as rad as it could possibly be.
Wouldn't be surprised at all if anyone from that scene lurks on lemmy.
A link with a cracked Minecraft client and an ip to join to a small server to chill with that alien.
Technically you can probably send a bunch of links, like Wikipedia etc. He "just" needs to access to it, which may or may not breach the 4GB rule.
Damn, what a cheapskate. A chance to play Minecraft with a friendly space alien and you canβt even pay for a legit copy. Probably going to give that alien a computer virus and doom us all. Donβt put this guy in charge.
Can agree with that, but I wanted to save the alien from having a Microsoft account.
Youβve got a point. On second thought, maybe a different game would be better.
Or just Wurstclient so he can play cracked
Nah, they're going to give the alien an Alienware !
Why do you assume the alien has access to the internet?
No reason at all. Of course probably the aliens won't have access to the interwebz, but playing Minecraft with an alien sounded funny in my head.
It won't breach the 4GB rule, but even the closest star to Sol would have at minimum latency of 4 years.
Yeah that's true.
Rickroll, comeon
I'm surprised no one has mentioned the actual messages humanity has sent into space in the hopes that aliens will hear it since those are actually pretty cool.
I mean look at this crap. Look at how cool it looks. https://www.plover.com/misc/Dumas-Dutil/messages.pdf

Again a cringe Word PDF title (why cant this program use normal Titles?)
-
Why tf didnt they just draw our numbers and instead some crazy art stuff?
It's explained in the PDF. If they used normal numbers and letters, the chance of corruption would be high. So they had to reform into the symbols you see.
I still don't get why we use Pi instead of Tau though, when most equations double it up into Tau anyway.
The dimension (physical height, 5'9") of an average man (blue/white)
Well thanks now they think we are all men
It's kinda cool but not sure why they thought creating a new set of pictograms that aren't used on Earth was the best method
So that the symbols would be less likely to get corrupted if the aliens received it over a bad radio link
I would probably include an apology for using FAT32 and insist that we've made better filesystems since then.
Probably an AI model that fits in that size. It might not be our best models, but it probably would be a lot more useful to aliens than whatever we'd decide to fit on 4GB.
They'd get mostly all the inner workings of our languages and how we do conversations and generally be able to answer basic questions about humanity.
What ? "an AI model" is not a compression algorithm. Why give the aliens an AI trained with some wikipedia articles when you could just give them wikipedia.

AIs do a lot of different things. What kind of AI do you mean?

A history of all of our misdeeds and self-inflicted suffering, probably 1gb of compressed literature and 3gb of imagery and video, along with an Earnest plea:
Please if you are able, either teach us how to save us from ourselves, or be merciful and destroy us. Don't let this self-inflicted carnage of we barely sapient creatures commit on one another due to lack of meaningful intellect or empathy continue.
Either take our hand and teach us as the confused, selfish, irrational children that we are, or just end this evolutionary mistake.
