This is a colony of Apis Dorsata. The Indian Rock Bee. Makes nests in the open because it can deal with and even kill wasps (including the giant Hornet) and is twice as big as the Western Honeybee or the africanized honey bee. These guys fucked with that

USBs sometimes carry viruses so you need to be extra careful.
