If you were tasked with putting together a message to send to space aliens, with the only restriction that the message had to be under 4GB, what would you send?

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 can’t even pay for a legit copy. Probably going to give that alien a computer virus and doom us all. Don’t put this guy in charge.

Can agree with that, but I wanted to save the alien from having a Microsoft account.

You’ve got a point. On second thought, maybe a different game would be better.

Or just Wurstclient so he can play cracked

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.
