A - "Rat Park", or why drug addiction is strongly ambient-driven.

B - Avoid pesky windows viruses. Use a condom.

C - Sounds from the Heliopause. So long Voyager, lead our reach towards other stars.

D - Soon to be movies: Wool from Hugh Howey. Post-apoc and Ridley Scott. Maybe he can redeem himself after Prometheus.

E - SFQD from "Phase IV" (1974):

"We knew then, that we were being changed... and made part of their world. We didn't know for what purpose... but we knew, we would be told."

A - Main differences between photography and cinema lenses. Most of them are quite nitpicky but one or two should end up messing color balance and definition.

http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/content.php?103-Why-We-Need-Cinema-Lenses

B - A word on power shortage in a post-apocalypse. tl:dr: buy generators.

http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/2165/when-the-zombies-take-over-how-long-till-the-electricity-fails

C - How not to "kickstart". Incredibly far fetched attempt to fund anything, anywhere, anytime.

D - A picture set on Voyager 1's letter to foreign species. These pictures, embedded on a golden disk, pose an incredible journey for any sentient species who may come across it. Sadly we may not be around when their cosmic letter comes to us.

E - SFQD from "The Man Who Fell to Earth" (1976):

The strange thing about television is that it doesn't *tell* you everything. It *shows* you everything about life for nothing, but the true mysteries remain. Perhaps it's in the nature of television. Just waves in space.

A - How to shoot a W.Anderson movie.

B - Warner Bros. movie "Getaway" tries to spam reddit with advertising posts. Shame.

http://www.reddit.com/r/movies/comments/1labxo/dont_try_to_cheat_reddit_an_after_action_report/

C - Updated study (analyzing the fall of megaupload) finds that piracy actually helps small movies. Getting a sort of free advertising through word of mouth. On the other hand only renowned big movie productions benefited notably by the shutdown.

D - World War Z's audio book. Just look at that cast. Even Scorsese is in it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_Z#Audiobook

E - SFQD from the one and only HAL9000 (nevermind his sister SAL). Words to live by:

I am putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.

Third

A - Kevin Spacey uses his House of Cards fame to illustrate a shinning new(and righteous) path to watching television:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oheDqofa5NM (Full, 47 mins)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0ukYf_xvgc (Abridged, 5 mins)

B - Cute little page to check out FPS rates. Gogo 60 fps!

http://frames-per-second.appspot.com/

C - RED Epic gets raped by concert lasers. BEWARE OF LASERSZSZ!

http://vimeo.com/56074271

D - Some dude called B.Trask built the monsters which became my infant nightmares. Now, years later, he turns live-action to torment me once again with his industrial automatons. OH YES!

http://www.trask-industries.com/#/home

E - Sci-fi quote of the digest from Brian Aldiss' short story, "Super-Toys Last All Summer Long" (which became the movie A.I. a million years later after Kubrick "Pinnochioed" it and Spielberg "CGIed" it):

[David:] "I wonder if time is good. I don't think Mummy likes time very much. The other day, lots of days ago, she said that time went by her. Is time real, Teddy?"

"Clocks tell the time. Clocks are real. Mummy has clocks so she must like them. She has a clock on her wrist next to her dial"

Segundo

A - 6 places which should be Historical Landmarks

http://www.cracked.com/article_20173_6-places-youll-recognize-from-background-every-movie.html

B - Oldie but Goldie. Some rhetoric from Mr.Tyson to uplift the day.

http://youtu.be/BFO2usVjfQc

C - Bots asking directions are so cute.

http://vimeo.com/22825752

D - To catch a drifting rock. In space.

http://youtu.be/jXvsi7DRyPI

E - Sci-Fi quote of the digest from "Gattaca" (1997):

We want to give your child the best possible start. Believe me, we have enough imperfection built in already. Your child doesn't need any more additional burdens. Keep in mind, this child is still you. Simply the best of you. You could conceive naturally a thousand times and never get such a result.

A - Heavy use of CGI on "The Great Gatsby"(2013) by Baz Luhrmann. The picture looks weird but great.

http://vimeo.com/68451324

B - RED co-founder James Jannard says "fuck this, imma chill" and takes a step back, leaving the company head to Jarred Land. Seems a troll does more damage than what a bunch of pseudo-benevolent entrepreneurs can fix. GJ troll (?).

http://www.reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?104367-My-Final-Post

C - Very short Sci-Fi story. Concise and entertaining. Must-watch-if-you-have-3:40-to-spare.

http://youtu.be/P9nnr2OC_44

D - All new MFA from the Lynch himself. Check out the Trascendental Meditation (R) edge, plus the Lynch being in the board of trustees to help getting shit DONE! (?).

E - Sci-fi quote of the digest from Neuromancer by W.Gibson:

"No," he said, and spun, the star leaving his fingers, flash of silver, to bury itself in the face of the wall screen. The screen woke, random patterns flickering feebly from side to side, as though it were trying to rid itself of something that caused it pain.
