gollark: By "new and improved" they mean "hahaha you will have a Microsoft account now, this is not optional".

gollark: https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/java-edition-moving-houseThis seems quite bad.

gollark: The "summon large amounts of bees riding sheep" bit is easy enough, but it's feeding into a "disapionator" outside the big triangular base there, and someone somehow rigged it to draw in bees, kill them when they get near a central thing, and produce cool particle effects while doing so.

gollark: No, that was earlier.

gollark: Technically, they're already self-replicating. The bot production machinery uses bots.
