gollark: Correction, 90.
gollark: It's 256 kilobees/singularity and there are only something like 150 apiaries.
gollark: Zero. We don't have many excess bees.
gollark: Excess bees are compacted into singularities.
gollark: If this doesn't work awfully, it should send the top bees in for bee things and stick the rest in indefinite storage.
