So my day-one S23 Ultra randomly froze mid-walk & entered a boot loopβ€”total brick. Online, it's the known #S23Ultra #SamsungDefect (motherboard failures from updates?). Ruined my event recording that some of you are aware of, but my action camera caught the chaos: sudden death,

Even with all the wildfire smoke today causing some people breathing issues, it was kind of baffling to walk by people who were still smoking cigarettes and coughing like crazy.

Never seen milk this pricey at the supermarket. Is this Hokkaido milk like a Japanese A5 wagyu beef type of quality or something?

First time seeing a blue heron do this. Apparently, this is how it cools off during the summer heat.

Was expecting random monsters while walking and gaming but not this. The guy I was talking to after was saying sadly people with drug issues are more common around the Vancouver city area too.

The Hudson Bay stores are closing down today in Canada and I walked around some of the stores in the Vancouver lower mainland. Some bargaining to get rid of everything at some places. Little preview.

So many people lining up in-person and in online waiting rooms for the Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders from the gaming stores that people are overlooking the general stores. Hundreds available as of now. Expensive in Canada though. #NintendoSwitch2 #NintendoSwitch2preorder

A brand new Canon PowerShot V1 camera for one cent Canadian? There's no way that will go through right? From a large store too.

Never would have expected to see a now hiring sign at a Hudson Bay Company store in the midst of a liquidation.

Some kind of protest at the US Consulate in Vancouver. Looks like it is related to all the US tariff issues and 51st state comments recently.

Quick video on what I captured for the time lapse photos of the red moon lunar eclipse. Can see the color changing as the evening went on overall. #EclipseLunar

Gonna try and set the camera to capture that lunar eclipse I keep reading about. In the meantime, it did capture this rainbow for today surprisingly.

The snow definitely arrived today. Could see it coming with the time lapse. Still managed to film the Vancouver Lunar New Years Parade too in Chinatown and more. Some preview. #YearOfTheSnake #LunarNewYear2025 #bcstorm

Sunset looked nice in downtown Vancouver on the ground at first. Flew up to get a better view.

Funny thing is I walked over 100,000 steps on the weekend more as a filming test, exact number was 112,410 steps (89.13 km) with 944 move minutes and people have been telling me it’s not fathomable. (I time lapse filmed pretty much the whole thing too). I could have literally

Working on all the footage of the Vancouver polar bear swim today for 2025. Some thermal video of people who decided to take the plunge. Was surprised to see the police and horses too. #polarbearswim #Vancouver #NewYear2025
