That we taste bad!

"The recollections of one Michael Chambers, with appropriate flashbacks and soliloquy. Or, more simply stated, the evolution of man. The cycle of going from dust to dessert. The metamorphosis from being the ruler of a planet to an ingredient in someone's soup. It's tonight's bill of fare from the Twilight Zone."
Awesome thanks, I just watched a bunch of Tree house of Horror episodes moments before you answered.
Not jack shit 😂 And I say that because I don't think aliens are going to be friendly. We aren't even friendly to other species on earth and we're from earth. Heck, we aren't even friendly to our own species! We have to literally teach ourselves to be nice to each other and the world 😂 So yeah... I ain't tryna die by yet another advanced race.
Yeah, I don't think we have the place to be mean to a species that could crush us.
There's a whole dynamic involved here, you could probably write a whole book on it. We are nice to a lot of animals directly, indirectly might be a whole different question, and we do eat other animals regardless of being at the point we could afford not to. The thing is we can't really prevent them from detecting us, when planets pass infront their stars the spectrum of light changes since we already know the frequencies pf light various stars emit. You can detect the atmospheric composition of planets this way, and say if methane and oxygen exist in the atmosphere in a decent amount it's pretty hard to explain that without life. Any civilization advanced enough to come destroy us probably already knows about us.
I'd like to think, the pursuit of more and more complicated things. (That mixed with practicality and survival) would probably make a reward function that's pretty survival and decentralisation focused maybe. Generally the levels of civilization are classified according to the kardishev scale, essentially by the amount pf energy they use. Type 1 (uses the total energy of their home planet), type 2 (home star), type 3 (home galaxy). I'd assume most civilizations they/that'll survive for long enough would be expansionists to some degree.
I would want them to know what a mixed bag we can be. In a lot of ways we are enlightened and in a lot of ways still very primal. I'd want them to know we are diverse and find comfort in smaller tribes, but when forced to the edge we can also work together beautifully.
I'd want them to know the human spirit.
How do you define the "human spirit" (though)?
Yes, definitely are a mixed bag. But all would be important to know
That we're all stark raving mad, and that if they know what's good for them they will stay well away from us.
I want them to take me with them...

I think the information they had about our physiology was a good idea. Let them know exactly what we are (or were, depending on when or if it gets found). I also liked they included things like buildings to show our architecture. Though I probably would have included more cultural things. Tried to communicate that humanity was diverse. I feel like that would be important information to include.
I think so too. I liked the bit at the end where some music by Beethoven was shown. Though, no world renound works of art were given. Missed opportunity, sadly.
I'm sure they were also quite limited in what they could fit on the disk for the time, so they had to make some tough choices. I'm actually a little surprised we never did something like this again. Especially since more scientists actually believe it likely that aliens exist elsewhere in the universe now.
We're not all this stupid. I PROMISE you! Some of us want a better existence than this one, but we're too few and far between. Please help us be better than... THIS. We're just hormone-fueled 13 year olds in the grand scheme of things. We have potential, I assure you... But we're still going through our "f*ck ups" phase. *ESPECIALLY* in the early 21st century. Give us another hundred years or two.
The truth. I'd have primarily concentrated on data, the architecture of the human brain and how we take decisions. Culture and current states are almost variables. Once you define what we fundamentally are maybe it'd give them enough information to estimate the good things and bad things we are capable of.
https://youtu.be/Yk3QsGzAjKIThat was the thing. It needs to be deciphered and it's likely totally wrong and useless.
Well, I wondered how they would be viewed...
Nothing. It's foolish to share information. For all we know they might be enemies
Mmm, true
There is no alien life out there. But if there was, I would warn them to stay away from the moral cesspool that is Earth... and also that this planet will soon become a FIRE-BALL when our Lord Jesus returns.
Sort of bleak. But thank you for the input!
Yes, upon His return, bleak and terrifying for the unsaved.
But a great feeling of relief and joy for the Saved
I want them to know not all (but most) humans are shit bags
I don't know about most... but I can agree to a lot
There's no intelligent life form on here anymore, go looking for some other planet.
Seriously, you should have landed about 30 years ago. Fuck off now.
I want aliens to know that Donald, the new Ghostbusters and the Garfield movie were all mistakes. We never wanted those things to happen, they just happened.
Yeah I get you. I feel the same way about Disney's Star Wars trilogy.
I think it's better just to tell that shits fucked for a bit, and we will get back to them after we get done un-fucking that shit. They can leave a message but we're in the midst of a dry outhouse fire of a time.
That not every human is the same, some are just idiots.
That we make mistakes and we are learning 😅
Trudat, and I imagine we've come along way from when NASA sent those pictures.
That human beings suck and you shouldn't ever come visit this planet. Especially if you're an advanced alien race far beyond anything humanity can comprehend
We are not going to make it - without help. We need help.
To come back in 200-300 years and see if we are worthy of contact then. Humanity currently isn't.
