Fair. If the sun is conscious then it either likes us or tolerates us. If it didn’t like us then it probably would’ve killed all of us a long time ago.
Like, in an ideal world, this is something we’d dump money into. Constant monitoring from Earth, and have the ISS try various signals each pass. Just random trial and error, maybe some representation of binary math and hope for an equal demonstration or even just reproduction of the signal.
At the very least the whole time we’d be gathering data in the hopes of preventing a random flare.
There’s just no money in that, so no capitalist society would ever pay for the research.
And who knows? Maybe the sun knows we’re here and the only reason it leaves us alone is we leave it alone?
Maybe trying to say wassup just pisses it off and we’re fucked if we try?

We’ll honestly never know.
