The food replacement Soylent is now hitting 2.0. The new version will come premixed in bottled liquid form instead of powder, though the powdered version will still exist. It will cost $12 per day, as opposed to $9 per day for the powder. The liquid and powder versions will have slightly different compositions.

In other Soylent news (pun intended), Soylent products will now be shipping in two to three days instead of the multi-month waits previously due to overwhelming demand relative to supply.

    Most of the things he do seem to off-load his power consumption to other people instead. Technically, he s reducing his power consumption but in turns, he is pushing that responsibility to other people instead. Not sure if that really counts. That said, while it is commendable, the tone of it makes him sound like a entitled privileged person who sees himself above mere plebeians like us.

    I'm sure the power running that Chinese factory is so much cleaner than the power that would operate his washing machine.

    Yeah what he's doing is almost as stupid as living in a hotel most of the time and then claiming his home energy use is low.
    Using uber (instead of cycling, public transport), buying clothes from china and donating them when they are dirty, burning gas to heat his coffee. And then trying to spin it as if he's environmentally friendly. Plenty of WTF there.

    Maybe his sales of Soylent are low so this is a publicity stunt/troll and he hopes that he'll get plenty of stupid customers to buy his product. $2.4 per 400kcal = $12 a day for 2000 calories.
