Even if it were possible, what sort of crazy alien would it take to burn 3 solar masses of negentropy to basically run a ping, compared to the amount of data that could be transmitted with electromagnetic waves with 3 solar masses of negentropy? It&#x27;s literally dozens of orders of magnitude in difference. Any aliens that are that bad at engineering probably aren&#x27;t going to grow to the point that they can shake neutron stars several times per second.
