I tried to make Minecraft with ChatGPT
I tried to use ChatGPT to make a basic clone of Minecraft in Unity, and the results were... interesting
AI can get you pretty far when it comes to a lot of things, and tools like ChatGPT are great at helping people. You can use them to plan meals, fitness plans, help you with programming, and a whole lot more. I used ChatGPT to try and help me make Minecraft, and to its credit, it did an okay job with the short period of time I actually played around with it.
How to install Minecraft on the Steam Deck
Getting the desktop version of Minecraft on your Steam Deck isn't as hard as it sounds.
If you have a Steam Deck or are looking to pick one up, you'll know that it's not just a portable games console but technically a mini-computer. It runs on SteamOS, which is based on Arch Linux, and Valve hasn't locked down access to that system. That means you can do whatever you want with it just like a traditional PC, and that includes installing your own software or even the operating system of your choice.

How to host a Minecraft server on a NAS
If you have a NAS lying around not doing anything, you might be able to turn it into a Minecraft server.
NAS stands for Network Attached Storage, but it's a bit of a misnomer. Assuming you have a NAS, you've probably realized it can do more than just store files. Depending on how powerful it is, you could even use it to host a Minecraft server. That's what I did with my old PC. It's really easy to do, too.
Can I play Minecraft on a Chromebook? Which editions work?
In this article we discuss the available options for playing Minecraft on a Chromebook or other Chrome OS device.
Mojang's Minecraft is the quintessential example of a game that is greater than the sum of its parts. It's not just about mining and crafting, but about exploring and building a world as you see fit. But before you get to all the creativity, the adventuring, and the friends you'll make along the way (we're serious here), you have to install the game. If you own a Chromebook, here's how to do just that.
Build the world of your dreams: Minecraft officially launches on Chromebooks

How to play Minecraft Java Edition on your smartphone using Pojav Launcher
You can play Minecraft Java Edition on your smartphone thanks to Pojav Launcher, though it can be a little bit complex to configure.
Minecraft is one of the most popular games on Android, though it's not as fully featured as the Java edition of the game that you'll find on desktop. You're incredibly limited on the servers you can play on, and of course, Java players have an easier time modding their game, too. However, it's actually possible to play Java Minecraft on your smartphone, and it's surprisingly easy to set up. You can play on Android, jailbroken iOS devices, and Chromebooks.

The massive 'Caves & Cliffs' update was first announced last year, but was later split into two updates. Part 1 was released on June 8, as Minecraft version 1.17, and now Part 2 is rolling out.
Bedrock syncs your Minecraft worlds between your Android devices
Minecraft for Android doesn't let you backup and sync your worlds between devices. Bedrock is an app that aims to fix that problem.
Minecraft may have come out over 10 years ago, but it's still an incredibly popular game. Over the years, it's gotten tons of (free!) updates, with new features, and even multiple versions of the game. But something that it's arguably been missing is the ability to sync worlds across devices. Sure, you could set up a server, but what if you don't have Internet? That's where Bedrock comes in, at least for Android.

Mojang announced plans to shut down Minecraft Earth this summer, citing the pandemic as one of the biggest reasons for the decision.

Have you ever wanted to run a Minecraft server from your Android smartphone or tablet? No? Well, now you can if you really want to.
Have you ever wanted to run a Minecraft server from your phone? No? Well, now you can. Thanks to a set of instructions from Reddit user endmymisouri, you can use an unrooted Android device to host a Minecraft server. In all seriousness, this is a good way to make use of an old Android phone or tablet you may have lying around. Of course, your Android device is not going to be especially powerful as a server, but it will work. I set up a Minecraft server on my Samsung Galaxy Note9 running One UI 2.0 and was able to join from my computer without issues.
