knock knock!

I left without seeing the film. That wasn't my kind of film appreciating atmosphere.

And inside, there are more "security " people in uniforms and civilian clothes. I have never seen such an insult to film lovers. They all are suspects!? A security threat. What the actual fuck?

There's military and police presence in and around Regal theater. Presidential security division or something are handling the entrance. This is a movie premiere in #Colombo , #SriLanka

They are searching bags and even asking to put phones in a tray. Because the president is coming to see the film. This is outrageous!

I am incredibly thrilled that Sanjeewa Pushpakumara's film 'Burning Birds' will be released in #SriLanka today

P.S. Bus song vides are music videos played in buses that run long distance trips here in Sri Lanka

My goodness! These "bus song videos" must be a profitable business. For the past two hours I saw at least 10 -12 mainstream actors appearing in them. Do people buy these CDs or do they release them for TV channels, I don't know. And they look like advertisements. Shiny finish and editing. I haven't seen them anywhere else. But yeah, I don't watch enough TV...

Good morning & #tzag dear fedizens :-)

I already knew that #Mastodon allows exporting and importing contacts as .csv files. This is why I moved from #GNUSocial to Mastodon.

I just found out that it also lets you request and download an archive of your toots and uploaded media.

"The exported data will be in #ActivityPub format, readable by any compliant software. You can request an archive every 7 days."

These are extremely useful features for those who have accounts on "other people's" instances.

A Sampath Bank ATM crashed while I was trying to withdraw cash. All of a sudden a Windows XP desktop was on the screen. Seriously? Is this what you actually run?
