its not a paradox. we just barely started to be able to detect planet sized objects orbiting very close stars. expecting technologically advanced aliens to spread like locusts, consume all energy of whole stars and put up megastructures that we'd be able to see from here is retarded scifi. same as thinking anyone visiting would give a shit about our hierarchy structures, land on the white house lawn and demand to see the president.

Alien civs don't survive their Singularities. Some fall prey to nuclear weapons, others AI, others destructive contra-survival ideologies, e.g., feminism, Communism, Judaism.

The FTL free energy opened a multi-dimensional wormhole to a part of the universe where antimatter was the most common from of matter, and it turns out that the wave function collapses in such a way that would allow for Schrodinger's cat to be observed in the quantum state, and if you harness the FTL free energy again you can quantum tunnel the desired state of the entangled cat out of its box, though it's time frame will be different then yours afterwards due to the relativistic effects of time dilation.
Of course, the Cabal is currently controlling an ultra-intelligent AI in the cave system under Manhattan, which they stole from intergalactic visitors that we caught on FAA weather cameras and military jet IR. I think they used the FTL free energy device to open their inter dimensional wormhole. If you go into the caves they open up, it's basically a whole other world just 50 feet down. See picrel. That's why the perpetual motion staircase in the White House's sub-basement takes you to the Atlantians.

Fermi missed the Malthusian prediction in his calculations. Most intelligent species are perpetually stuck in a feudal starvation poverty society, until some disease wipes the entire species out completely.
Also please stop calling it a paradox. A paradox is not some chain of reasoning with no quality calculations to back it up. This just promotes my hypothesis that most academics are absolutely DOGSHIT at stats, which is why COVID decision making was so devastating.

If it took 4.5 billion years of stability to produce a single species barely able to send a hunk of metal out of their star system then it's not looking good for the rest of the galaxy.

We're 3-4 generations of stars deep in the stelliferous era. Space is big, we're most likely the first in our conceivable area to look to the stars, and even we are struggling.

that it was or is not ideal for us has 0 bearing on how many times an ideal set up has occured elsewhere. Secondly, the fact that things like electronic transistor based computers have not been extant for geologically relevant timescales is no indication that they can never do so, nor an indication of what they might look like if they did.

That's an understatement, to say the least. We're not separated only by ungodly amounts of space, but by time as well - which acts as a dimension of space when it comes to contact with other species.

apparently there are billions of galaxies and the next galaxy to us is ~2.5 million lightyears away. so i guess the probability is just incredible small that intelligent life emerges which is able to send a signal through space and those who are able to do that are very likely to be too far from each other to detect the signal. if there is an average of 1 extra-terrestrial civilisation per galaxy, there could be still billions of alien civilizations. assuming there would be life somewhere in the andromeda galaxy, what technology would we humans need to detect their signal and what would they need to send the signal? and how much energy would be required to send 1 bit of information?

I hate this stupid fucking pop-sci pseudointellectual midwit trash. The "fermi paradox" DOES NOT EXIST. THE FERMI PARADOX IS THE SUPPOSED CONTRADICTION BETWEEN WHAT IS OBSERVED AND ASSUMPTIONS ABOUT CERTAIN VALUES OF THE DRAKE EQUATION. MOST OF THE VALUES IN THE DRAKE EQUATION ARE UNKNOWN AND KNOWING THE MISSING VALUES WOULD REQUIRE SURVEYING ENORMOUS AMOUNTS OF SPACE AND ENCOUNTERING MANY ALIEN CIVILIZATIONS, WHICH WOULD REFUTE ANY DISCUSSION OF THE SO-CALLED FERMI PARADOX IN THE FIRST PLACE. SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!!!!!!!!

Perhaps the answer is 4 grades higher than that outward into your own mind. I think that's true actually. I was wrong. It is actually 6 grades higher than the face on the sparks. Try more or less. The mouth on the blue implies 'yes you do'.

It has to be on the order of star output and it has to be directed at us and we have to be zooming directly into it because it's all a big fuzzy sea of stars to us.
On the other hand, large planets that are within dozens of light years of us can be resolved and so conceivably they could build numerous satellite swarms with mirrors that change the appearance of their largest planet and send very organized code that can be interpreted by our level of civilization. We could then do the same thing directed at them using Jupiter.
