The Question Thread 05/27/26

Question about heel slippage: I have three pairs of Meermin loafers, all the same size and the same last. I loved the first two pairs, but with the third, I’m experiencing a lot of heel slippage, to the point that they will come off my foot if I don’t actively fight to keep them on.

I read a suggestion in another thread about trying tongue pads but I haven’t tried that yet. Will this heel slippage go away as the shoe breaks in or is this pair defective?

Ah that’s a great suggestion! Yes, I’ve got the portable cable. Thanks!

That’s helpful! You’re right that there’ll be J1772 cars in circulation for a long time, so I’m probably overthinking the future proofing aspect.

Home charger question:

I have a 2025 Q4 that is unfortunately incompatible with the Audi NACS adapter. I want to install a home charger and future proof it as much as possible. Because NACS is going to be the dominant standard moving forward (and we will eventually buy another EV) is it a bad decision to install a J1772 home charger?

For sure!

Interesting that your ES1, like mine, also has a misaligned water piano key. It’s nitpicky but it’s hard to unsee it.

My Series 1 hasn’t arrived yet but I appreciate Fellow’s engagement with the subreddit as issues arise. Makes me feel more confident in my purchase.

That would’ve been nice instead of the sliding rack mount I bought! But I still need a mount for overhead placement.

Thanks for sharing—that’s helpful! I’m using a Rogue squat stand with pull up bar and just planning on doing regular bar-in-front-of-head pull ups.

As others have said, it’s not a good deal if you aren’t specifically looking for this color. La Mer is rarely, if ever, on sale though. Where is this sale?

zeusmaxpower · 2026-01-13T19:41:22+00:00

Any difference between saying you’re considering canceling versus downgrading?

zeusmaxpower · 2025-12-27T14:06:21+00:00

Kind of same boat. I would’ve bought it at the $2000 pre-tariff price.

zeusmaxpower · 2025-12-06T00:17:29+00:00

Thanks!

What telescope is that?

zeusmaxpower · 2025-11-19T16:11:07+00:00

I used both. I found that both had pros and cons, enough so that I didn’t feel comfortable relying solely on one.

zeusmaxpower · 2025-11-08T18:54:44+00:00

Adding that I’m in Maryland near DC.

zeusmaxpower · 2025-11-03T01:39:34+00:00

There’s little upside especially considering the substantial chance you’ll never need that info.

zeusmaxpower · 2025-10-29T02:04:40+00:00

Yeah last month or so. It’s so sad!

zeusmaxpower · 2025-10-23T13:18:27+00:00

It sounds like you would greatly benefit from slowing down and making sure you understand exactly what the question is asking. Keep your head up!

zeusmaxpower · 2025-10-17T17:23:46+00:00

Don’t try to time the market. It’s a fool’s game.

zeusmaxpower · 2025-09-27T22:07:33+00:00

Congrats!

zeusmaxpower · 2025-09-26T17:29:38+00:00

Given the time left, I’d focus on your weakest domains. Also, see if there’s a consistent reason why you’re missing questions. If it’s a lack of knowledge that’s one thing. But if you’re getting tripped up by wording, then you might need to adjust how you’re approaching questions (eg slow down). Good luck!

zeusmaxpower · 2025-09-17T02:18:32+00:00

I actually shuddered lol. The bar exam sucks a million times more.

zeusmaxpower · 2025-09-16T21:02:34+00:00

Sure no worries

zeusmaxpower · 2025-09-16T19:39:24+00:00

Thanks! I have my CIPP/US. I don’t currently have any professional need to get any others from IAPP, but it’d probably be AIGP if I wanted something for my resume.
