I used to use a setup like the one pictured. I found it a bit of a hassle. I picked up a used sodastream for about five bucks in a thrift store and got a few third party bottles. I then connected my co2 tank to the sodastream with a hose adapter like this one:

It gives me the convenience of a sodastream without vendor lock-in and without supporting sodastream.

It's much less active than it used to be, but there is a DIY Soylent community. There's a pretty good site at:
that ranks the most popular recipes and has a pretty decent app that calculates nutritional value and per meal cost of the various recipes.
edit - looking at it now, I'm not sure if the price calculations per recipe are up-to-date. In particular, I know the cost of protein powder has increased substantially, so your mileage may vary in terms of the listed costs, but the calculator is still very useful for concocting your own recipes and forking/modifying other people's recipes.
Instructions unclear. Phone is now stuck. Please advise.
Remember the $1 grilled cheese truck guy?

It didn't ever actually happen (that I know of) but those trucks should exist everywhere and park right next to overpriced fast food restaurants to exert some economic pressure on them to lower their prices. Shit is ridiculous.
I'm all for higher employees!
The claim is that some (not all) videos showing nonstandard Windows 11 installs have been taken down by YouTube. Are you refuting that?
The title is the claim: "YouTube is taking down videos on performing nonstandard Windows 11 installs"
There isn't a claim being made that all videos showing circumvention of the Microsoft account requirement for Windows 11 installation are being taken down. Only some of them. You saying "people will just believe anything that fits their worldview" sounds like you're asserting that no takedowns are occurring. Thank you for clarifying that this is not actually your position.
The likelihood is that that this is being done automatically by youtube's AI, rather than because of requests by Microsoft. I think the real problem illustrated here is the lack of transparency when Youtube issues a takedown. An initial glance at Youtube's Community Guidelines doesn't seem to indicate a criterion by which a takedown would be automatically issued for such content, but I wonder if they're starting to automatically flag anything that might be considered circumvention guides. I had a private video taken down that I was sharing with a friend to show them how to use yt-dlp to extract audio from youtube videos and was given the same reason "harmful or dangerous content", which it clearly was not, but they're reluctant to explicitly say that they're removing videos that illustrate circumvention techniques. Yet another reason to stop using Youtube.
Thank you!
The fact that some videos remain does not mean that some videos haven't been removed
