Or even one of the many other food replacement drinks.
I personally enjoyed Huel back in version 1, or it may have been 1.1, but then it quickly swung into containing high levels of sweetener. More popular than other options, but if anyone else found it had moved into drinking cake then try some of the others rather than giving up.
Are there any details about their tech stack you can share? I know they're using Java (there were pages ending in .jsp when I filed my taxes through them) but that's about it.
I'm happy with it, but I did have to get a heatsink for it, since otherwise it overheats easily. Since I got it they released a couple of dual-band dual-concurrent cards like this one: https://www.asiarf.com/shop/wifi-wlan/wifi_mini_pcie/wifi6e-... , which is pretty neat, since you don't need to get a separate card for 2.4GHz devices.
Thanks. There's a message on the page of the newer card "Main board Power Supply design please provide 3.3V 3.5A, minimum 3.3V 3A" - do you think this would be a problem for an APU2?
I imagine with a sufficient power supply it should not be a problem, at least I haven't had any problem with mine yet. I have a friend who's using one of their DBDC cards in an apu2 and he also hasn't had power issues yet.
> One more thing - how is the signal range for you?
With four 5dBi antennas it's sufficient to have >800mbps in every corner of my single bedroom apartment. Other than that I have no means to test, sorry :)
Does anyone have recommendations for meal replacement drinks like Soylent? I've been consuming Ample exclusively Monday-Friday for quite a while but it's super expensive. I've been looking at Huel since it's much cheaper but looking for opinions, especially from people who have tried both.
I tried Soylent before but I felt hungry pretty much immediately afterward.
I've been a fan of Queal[0] for numerous years now. When these meals became popular I tried out a handful, and ended up liking Queal the most. Have stuck with it ever since.
A couple years back I tried out Huel, but I didn't quite get used to the flavoring. I find Queal's to be much less artificial-feeling and subtler. But it's probably all subjective.
My best experience is with Huel Black (the high-protein one) for satiety.
However it has huge cons compared to Soylent: it tastes a little bad (as opposed to Soylent, which can be described as mostly inoffensive) and has the mouthfeel and texture of watery sand. Also, it's not intended to be your only food source.
I’ve had both many times, and with Soylent I experienced the exact same problem you’ve described. I tried to go “full Soylent” in college and I could drink 3000 calories of it and still feel hungry.
A couple of years ago I tried Huel Black and loved it. It’s way more satiating, healthier, and I actually enjoyed the taste. Unlike Soylent, it actually feels like food. I look forward to having it for breakfast each day.
My favorite flavors are Coffee Carmel and Chocolate. I highly recommend Huel Black over the regular Huel. Steer clear of the Cinnamon Roll flavor.
I canceled Soylent a couple of years ago after two silently-failing billing errors within a year and a rude customer service response. Looking for replacements, I ended up going with Huel.
It's been fine; I have had a couple of bad batches (too salty / bitter), but they replaced them. Switching from Soylent's ready-made drinks to Huel's mix-with-water powder was a small adjustment, but Huel's shaker bottle makes it easy. Soylent was fine unflavored for me (I'd describe it as "cheerio milk"), but with Huel their "original" flavor wasn't doing it for me so I've been ordering the chocolate. It's 1g of sugar, which doesn't bother me.
I'm just using it for a daily breakfast shake. I've never been that hungry in the mornings so can't comment on if you'll feel sated by it, but it works for me as a way to get some easy nutrition.
With Soylent, I found that if I wait until I'm hungry, I will still be hungry after I drink a glass. If I drink it before I get hungry, I don't get hungry.
Instead of my usual mealtimes of 8am, 1pm, 6pm I drink Solent at 8am, 12pm and 4:30pm; then I don't feel hungry throughout the day.
JMP.chat is a commercial provider, but their infrastructure is open-source. The central bridging component is actually cheogram.com (maintained by the same team). If you're determined enough, there are other providers you can bridge through Cheogram, including Vonage and Twilio, which offer European numbers. It's not as seamless as JMP, but if you're determined enough it works: https://wiki.soprani.ca/VonageSetup and https://wiki.soprani.ca/TwilioSetup
Alternatively, hang tight... I know JMP do want to offer European numbers at some point.
