What Dry Cleaners Do

Kathryn Kvas humorously imagines what dry cleaners are really doing to your stained clothes, instead of actually cleaning them.

You Can Buy a Chevy Corvette or Camaro for Shockingly Cheap Right Now

The Corvette Z06 Carbon 65 Edition. 

Chevy is offering legit bargain deals to get rid of a surplus inventory of 2018 Corvettes and Camaros

Yes, that might indeed sound like the script of a bad dealership commercial that plays nonstop on local radio stations around the holidays, but just hear us out. 

As The Drive notes, dealer supply data from eInventory shows that around 9,000 ‘Vettes are stockpiled around the country, so Chevy is incentivising potential buyers with an incredible offer on the Stingray, Grand Sport and Z06 trims: zero percent financing for 72 months. 

The Corvette Stingray. 

The six-year, interest-free loan is available on every Corvette with a 2018 model year. And if you start hunting on specific lots, you’re likely to find discounts of up to $15,000 less than the list price. 

The Drive reports: 

Take a look at this 2018 Corvette Z06 at Diver Chevrolet in Delaware being offered at $71,194, a full $15,000 under the sticker price.

Looking for a more enthusiast-focused choice? How about this 2018 Chevy Corvette Grand Sport with a manual transmission, selling for a mere $62,297 at Merit Chevrolet in St. Paul, Minnesota—also nearly $15,000 under MSRP. 

Plowing those savings into an equivalent down payment will bring the monthly price down to around $666.

The Corvette Grand Sport. 

The Stingray and Grand Sport both boast a 460-horsepower, 6.2-liter V8, while an LT4 supercharger on the same engine produces a whopping 650 hp in the Z06. 

If a Camaro is more your speed, Chevy offering the same financing deal plus $1,000 cashback on all 2018 models of the muscle car, including the top-end ZL1. Like the Z06, its supercharged V8 is rated at 650 hp. 

The offer on these American-made rides expires on April 1, so head to Chevrolet’s Current Deals page to take advantage now. 

Telling Lies is a game investigating how well we know ourselves

Sam Barlow was traveling a lot. Following the success of his award-winning game Her Story, he found himself often using FaceTime or Skype to talk to his wife and kids. It got him thinking: what happens to a relationship when you’re living it through a device?

That question is the basis for his upcoming project, Telling Lies, a narrative game that examines how well you know those closest to you. “You know the extent to which, in a relationship with someone, you have an idea of who that person is,” he says. “But you can never truly know the extent to which that person truly knows themselves … This is very much an exploration of people not being honest with each other, people not being honest with themselves.”

Her Story focused on a…

YouTube creators are still trying to fight back against European copyright vote

For months, YouTube creators have been trying to warn viewers about the ramifications of Europe’s new copyright directive. And after an EU vote approved the directive, one of the most vocal activists leading a charge against the directive, Dr. Grandayy, says it’s time for YouTubers to get serious about copyright activism.

“The reaction of YouTubers has been virtually unanimous against Article 13,” Grandayy, a creator with more than 2 million subscribers who is best known for his memes, told The Verge. “The sad thing is that us YouTubers have no lobby groups or unions that can fight for us and speak to politicians directly for us. Most politicians have no idea about the troubles YouTubers face with copyright, or what type of content the…
