  • LOL, I don’t think Mississippi ever cared much in the first place. Back in the day, Mississippi actually did require inspections, for all of $5.

    They didn’t bother checking the brakes or much of anything really, except make sure all the lights and the horn work. Sometimes they might even make sure your seatbelts are intact and latch correctly.

    I remember sometime in the late 90s helping my dad push his Buick into the inspection bay. They didn’t even care that the car literally didn’t run, he still passed inspection, because all his lights and horn worked! 😂🤣






  • Wait, other states don’t? I dunno, I live in Mississippi, I always thought the other states did the same. Guess I never really paid that much attention.

    If it counts for anything, at least Mississippi doesn’t require two tags, one for the back and one for the front, they only require the rear tag.

    Also, our vehicles don’t require inspections anymore, which is both a bonus for your wallet, and also very frightening when you realize how many vehicles out there are on the verge of brake failure or something equally dangerous.








  • That’s never stopped fake products from reaching legit store shelves before. There’s been numerous instances where Walmart had fake memory cards on their shelves, with all the official looking logos and packaging, and they didn’t even know it.

    In those cases, it might be a fake SanDisk MicroSD card labeled as a 512GB, when really it’s only a 256GB, but reflashed to trick the system into seeing it as a 512GB. Which is really bad once you’ve stored over 256GB on it, it starts overwriting existing data and corrupting everything.

    Walmart doesn’t manufacture the products, they just stock them and sell them. Even the great giant Walmart isn’t immune to being conned by fake products. And just to think of all the wide variety of products they stock and sell, what really are the chances every single product is genuine?.. 🤔
