How to Get Honeycomb in Minecraft? | Esports News – The Times of India

Honeycomb is sourced from beehives and bee nests in Minecraft and is used in crafting items such as candles, honeycomb blocks, beehives, and waxed copper. Bee nests can be found in various biomes, with the following probabilities: Meadow (100%), Plains and Sunflower Plains (5%), Flower Forest (3%), and Forest and Birch Forest (0.2%).

This humanities professor wants students to study video games. He explains why in this Q&A

Humanities professors Michael Call and Brian Croxall at BYU have launched a video gaming initiative that combines technology and the humanities. Every Monday at 4:00 p.m., students attend a lecture on a selected video game, followed by gameplay throughout the week. The initiative began with games like Stardew Valley and Minecraft and aims to explore various games and their cultural significance. Croxall emphasizes the artistic value of video games, comparing them to traditional forms of art. Call highlights the historical connection between 17th-century French society and gaming, noting the lack of academic discussion around video games on campus.
